Our field goal attempt is why Rivera needs to go...

[WarPanthers89]

Game is tied. 1st and goal at the three...we stuck it up three plays in a row. Now as head coach with your team sitting at 5-5, playoffs on the line, on the road against your division rival who has only lost two games all year, knowing your kicker is struggling bad, you attempt to kick the field goal instead of going for the TD. We all know that if you score a touchdown,  the odds are extremely low that the saints come back to tie, not to mention the odds are very good that they march down and get a field goal to tie even if he makes it because we have a turd defense (that he is calling plays for). Ron Rivera has a Losers mentality and needs to go. He is a solid coach but will not take us to a championship, and if you know that then you need to find someone who gives you a chance. 31-34-1 in games decided by a touchdown or less. He is Jeff Fisher 2.0

Ron isn't 2.0 anybody

[tgrfan01]

agree...instead of going for it he sends the kicker who has struggled all game out there lol what  a dolt..done giving any sort of money to this franchise until they clean house and show they want to win.

[WarPanthers89]

We cannot continue to do this year after year. His strength is his defensive background (which continues to get worse) and he has 3 winning seasons out of 9.

Of all things this is not the reason. He goes for it and misses and you are making the same thread the other way  That's a fact.

The team played up to the competition and lost because the kicker is terrible when people were hoping to get blown out. That's not on coaching.

No we then talk about how you can’t get 3 yards in 4 plays. You have the number one RB in the league...

3 yards in the redzone with a battered and bad o-line is infinitely harder to obtain than 3 yards anywhere else.

We don't have redzone options.

You take the three there in that situation.

Under what criteria?

Head coach?  Coordinator?  Assistant?

[ncstatekwi]

Yep, talking to my Dad and we discussed...go for a TD or FG...we both predicted RR would go for 3...and he did and thats the game!!

So you trust our defense to stop them from getting in field goal range over CMC getting the ball 4 times straight to get 3 yards?

Crazy because last week he went for some questionable 4th down plays..wherein...I feld he was fighting for his job!  This week...not so much!

Touché. I think he’s like a Jeff Fisher, a solid enough coach to get you to 8-8 year after year and maybe get lucky 3 out of 9 seasons to get you a winning record.

[GoPanthers123]

You go for FG there all the time. If you were stopped at the goal line over and over, you need to kick for the lead.

[mc52beast]

Maybe the analytics said kick the FG...

Did Ron seriously think his terrible defense was going to keep the Aints from marching right down the field
