players probably getting all this at the same time we are...

Not a shock we haven’t heard much.  They probably had no clue.  Ron wasn’t able to say adios. Etc. 

 

Agreed, I’m thinking because of the lack of tweets/social media reactions that they’re all in shock and coming to terms with this just as we all are. 
 

only they ALL had very personal relationships with him, so I’d imagine it’s hitting a little closer to home for the guys in the locker room and throughout the entire building.

 

It will be very interesting who talk ish now that he’s gone and who’s got his back besides the regular “it’s a business” responses once they’re back to work and the media comes in.

Regardless who the coach is, was or will be, every day on the active roster of an NFL franchise is a job interview. Whether at practice, on an off day with the family or on Sundays, you're always playing for your next paycheck and you're always playing to add footage to the film reel. Players don't have time to lament and wonder and tweet and carry on.

I got a new boss 2 notches above me on the ladder today. Didn't change a fugging thing about my job nor did I do anything differently because of the announcement.

Carry on smartly, lads.

I imagine this will sting for most of the players. For the weaknesses and shortcomings Rivera had, perhaps his greatest strength was being a leader of men. 

I genuinely believed the players played for him. His biggest strength as a HC was building relationships with his players. While letting him go is the right thing to do for the future, I doubt you’ll hear anyone saying much bad about Ron. On a personal level, I really think the plays loved the guy.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Vet QB Options - Trade/Cut/FA Edition

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
