Feeling like a Lame Duck December

[Jeremy Igo]

Any long time Huddlers remember the feeling of 2010 Holiday Season?

Am I the only one that is starting to get that same tingle in my balls? 

Starting to feel like Rivera's departure is a foregone conclusion and any current game should be watched in the context of what it means for next season.

I predict one, maybe two more wins if the saints half ass the final game again.  6-10 record and Rivera is gone.  Hurney too, he put together this team.

Just in time for that meaningless screw our selves out of a good draft pick winning streak as we pick up wins against Washington, New Orleans and one surprise (I’ll say Seattle) to get to 8-8

Rivera has been such a master schemer, deceiver, and deflector of his poor performances here that until Tepper announces it, I'm not expecting anything less than status quo.

Feels like 2009 again. If Rivera were retained next season then yeah it'll be 2010 again. A year which I didn't watch and I would again not watch again if he is still here next season.

Panthers fans have become way too soft. Team is 5-5 and everyone is ready to give up?

Remember that Thursday night game in Pittsburgh?  Jimmy Jam up against an eventual AFC Champion Steeler team?  Man was that a great game.

Isn't giving up what they did yesterday?

Rivera might last to the end of the year if he's lucky. It would be surprising if Tepper were not already looking for a replacement

I don't react like this very often, but I honestly wouldn't mind blowing everything up and rebuilding at this point.  If that means trading Luke and CMC than so be it.

That wouldn't be luck, that would simply be good judgement.

Absolutely nothing good can come of firing Ron right now at least as far as this team and this season go.  Let's say they fire Ron today.  Ok, who is head coach?  Norv?  Who is DC?  Washington??!?!?!

That doesn't sound like it's going to improve our season to me.

I'm still baffled that Hurney was rehired in the first place... has that ever happened in the NFL where a team fires a gm for incompetence and then turns around and brings him back a few years later? Like you didn't get enough of that the first go around.

Doesn't bode well for this season... but at this point should we be focused on this season? It would help getting our feelers out early and letting coaches to be already know were hiring and accessing if they would like the job or not which should be the teams priority,the future not this lost season.

Rivera isn't going to tell CMC to fake injuries like Fox did.
