Carolina's 2019 point differential (per game) under Ron "Defensive Genius" Rivera?  

-3 PPG

Carolina has surrendered 291 points on the season (11 games).  Only six teams are worse: Cincinnati, Atlanta, NYG, Arizona, Tampa Bay, and Miami.

This is the sort of stat that leaves the Panthers aspiring to become mediocre.

A lot of people, offseason after offseason during the Rivera Regime, have thirsted for that very thing.

Well... they got it.  And they're still getting it.  Good and hard.  Think they're happy now?

For all the crap we've given our offense, they are the 12th ranked scoring offense in the league.  It's not amazing, but it's above average.

Our scoring defense has been awful, and defense in general as well.  For this if no other reason, Rivera needs to go.  When a defensive coach can't keep his defense above average, while his OC takes a rookie backup QB and presents an above average attack his time is up.

It's why I was concerned earlier on when we were living off of turnovers. We were getting gashed in yardage but bailing ourselves out with turnovers and I doubted it would last.

    • Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly. 
    • Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.
    • It is goofy how some people hate Bryce so much that they're flat out lying to try and remain entitled to their pessimism. It's insanity. Most fans are realists and eagerly awaiting the season to see if we get pre- or post-benching Bryce to start the season and how much he is able to do with some young and developing weapons. Many of us understand that these young guys are going to have growing pains on the job as well as the new defense, but the fans with all of the excuses for why Bryce can't be successful are pounding the no excuses drum. Personally, I'd prefer the Keep Pounding drum.
