our downfall has been our performance in our division...it cost Rivera his job

Absolutely. The Panthers are 7-17 in the NFC South the last 4 years. Teams like the Patriots have been so successful because they beat the hell out of their division and then coast to the playoffs.

Rivera has been getting owned by Dan Quinn. We got swept by the Saints and Falcons this year and split with the Bucs. Now that same coach wants full control of a franchise.

We typically go 1-5 every year. Split with TB and get swept by the others, unless we catch one of them resting starters in Week 17 and go 2-4. It gives us absolutely no wiggle room in non-division games.

You basically have to go 10-0 or at least 9-1 to make the playoffs.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
