I mean, you telling me a team like Cleveland wouldn't be hitting a home run to land Rivera? That would be a great hire for them.  

 

Nah, I don't think hitting a single to try to avoid hitting into a double play would necessarily be cause for celebration.

Yea poo teams always hire retreads like this. Manning even brought John Fox kicking and screaming to a SB where Fox's defensive specialty held the Seahawks to just like 40 points.(I know the defense scored)

Cam brought Rivera kicking and screaming to a 15-1 record despite games like vs those Seahawks in the playoffs where we did literally nothing in the second half and allowed Seattle to get back into the game to the point where they could have actually won. Be just fine playing against a Rivera team as even our can't get separation WRs would be wide open against his coverage and even if they got a lead we know Rivera will sit on it so we'll literally always in the game no matter what.

Don't give two diarrhea shits where Rivera goes.

A barely over .500 career coach who only produced three winning seasons in nine years is the hottest candidate on the market?

Damn, this market sucks.

Cam mvp acting like we fired the greatest coach in history

John Fox was a hot candidate after the Panthers let him go. Just sayin'.

And John Fox had four consecutive playoff seasons with the Broncos and a 0.719 win percentage. Most of that’s on Manning, but the guts of that team won a Super Bowl after he left.

Just because something isn’t working here doesn’t mean it can’t work elsewhere. The Chargers and Browns would probably love to have a coach like Rivera.

So 

 

If Hurney were Fired as well

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Would he be one of the hottest names on the market too?

Would you be happy if we hire Jason Garrett when Jerry Jones fires him?

I just addressed that though...only teams that don't want a Ron Rivera type are the ones that just had one.  Which would be us. 

but I will say I think Ron is higher in the Ron Rivera type tier than Garrett.

Actually maybe. Or probably not but I would not be surprised if the Jaguars did well after they hired him.

[blackcat]

So in other words, RR is the tallest midget?

A team who underachieves and probably wont have a qb after this year and another who has a overrated jackass at QB? 

Yeah i can see that working now....

No.  And we already know that because we have already seen that. 

Hurney basically does one thing well.  Use first round picks.

Browns biggest issue right now is culture in the locker room.  They are stacked w/ talent.  They are also built to play the type football Ron would love. 

yeah, with a kid like Baker? Ron is the type coach you want.   How many non-Panther fans would have classified Cam in the exact same manner?

And he led his next team to a Super Bowl. I mean, there's that.

[rippadonn]

The Bears should drop everything and get Rivera.

Giants fans want him badly.

[TheMaulClaw]

Rivera was a good coach. He made some mistakes...and his teams the past few years were snakebit.

He also did a lot of good things. He was also a class act. I'm actually sadder then I thought I would be.
