Should a loss to the Falcons on Sunday be the nail in Rivera's coffin?

with all the nails that should be in his coffin i'm not sure how it even has structural integrity any more. wood should be splitting apart by now.   not being able to do what's best for cam throughout the years should have already garnered him a coffin-less burial at sea

...with a funeral dirge playing in the background? 

Something like this?

 

FWIW I always get a chuckle out of Mark Twain's line about the composer:

"Wagner's music is better than it sounds."

Not reading through the whole thread.

But dont think it will be the nail.

 

Again, out of Rivera's hands if DJax and Cockrell are out, and Bradberry is 50/50. 

Hate to use excuses, but replace Rivera with any coach this Sunday.  And you wouldn't get any better result.

That coffin is nailed shut 

Getting embarrassed by the 49ers closed the lid. Losing last week nailed that lid shut. He's gone after this year barring a miraculous resurrection, which isn't going to happen.

He done. 

I so hope your right. But we all thought that last year too.

I can understand why Tepper gave them a second chance. Give them what they felt they needed to succeed, better equipment, indoor training facility, etc. Just tell me what you need. Meanwhile, he focuses on the business side of things, building the brand, getting new headquarters, etc. 

They have no excuses. There are no more excuses. They've been given everything they could need to succeed and they still can't. They can't take what they've got and make it work. They can't even do it with his money and his advice.

They just can't get it done, so it's time now to move on. No one can say they just weren't given a legit shot. 

I think the only question is, does he make it through the rest of the season or not. If Ron comes out flat again against the falcons, we may see an early exit. He gets swept by them and I can't see him finishing the year.

I sure hope not.

As many of us know, the Panthers have struggled against division opponents in recent seasons. The Panthers are 7-13 against the division since 2016.

Now, a struggling 2-7 Falcons team comes to Charlotte looking to put a positive spin on a bad season. The Panthers have already lost to a bad Buccaneers team at home in Week 2.

If Ron Rivera can't draw up a gameplan to beat a 2-7 division opponent at home, with playoff hopes already on life-support, Rivera has outlived his usefulness as head coach and the search for a new staff should begin immediately after the game.

Yes, absolutely yes. And this is the type of game he typically loses too.

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
