Tbh. Rivera’s losing seasons were 2011, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018

 

2011-2012 fixing the 2-14 Panthers

2014: Cam Newton nursing ribs and Byron bell and Nate chandler (that’s the GMs fault) 

2016: Gano missed a FG week 1

1 win lost, Falcons we couldn’t stop a nosebleed (again, how is this Ron’s fault? Bene benwikere or James Bradberry as a rookie was not stopping Julio Jones)x2 losses. Cam was hurt vs Tampa game 1. We get back on track and get to 3-5 and Popeyes biscuit fumbles the ball to the chiefs otherwise we arguably could’ve won that game in OT (but Rivera is never aggressive)  We get to 5-8 and Cam hurts his arm. (4-3 since starting 1-5 with a cam injury and Gano pulling his BS)

 

2017: 11-5: imo Rivera gets 0 credit for this team. Cam is hurt with a injury at the time we did not understand how bad it was, we find a way to win games vs great teams and we were Cams arm staying together 1 more game from winning the division... after getting swept by the Saints. 
 

2018: When cams arm was halfway together we started 6-2.... Gano missed 2 kicks vs Detroit and 1 vs Seattle that would’ve had the team at 8-3 with two matchups with the saints looming... what was Ron supposed to do? 

 

2019: Where we are now... 0-2 start and Ron goes 4-0 with a essentially rookie qb and loses to 2 good teams and gets destroyed by Atlanta... Then Rivera gets crap for players when we constantly have players leaving for monster deals because we can’t afford them...

 

Obviously Ron has losses that are his fault... but y’all are getting mad about him being 5-5 without a QB we thought all offseason we would have. Might be time to lay off him and put the blame where it belongs... the GM for it having depth for Ron to use...

The same thing that shows on the field does not always show on the practice field...

That may be true but there have been many occasions in which Ron played the Vet until injury over a more talented rookie.

I dont think Grier is our savior like some of the people around here do, I doubt he ever gets a chance in Carolina especially if we clean house.

Bottom line: career win percentage to this point .554 with a franchise qb at his disposal and a generational talent at MLB. All teams must deal with injuries. He is what he is, picking through every season to rationalize his record ignores that every coach in the NFL has to overcome similar challenges. He is not the worst, but he is far from the best.

Tom Brady blows out ACL week 1.

Pats go 11-5.

Rivera sucks.  Next question.

      Thomas Fletcher Didn’t Make It, But These Four Did

      Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.

      Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
