Ron was a veteran and probably got passed over for a better talented player and never let it go.

He must have felt his veteran status gave him the upper hand. 

Never forget Norwell not getting his chance until a sorry ass guard went down with injury.  And then had the thought of bringing him back after his injury.  Thank god he didn't. 

He can say he's learned from his mistakes.   I'm not buying it.

Too bad he is a slow learner.

Potentially the sloooooooowest learner ever in the history of coaching. Its wonderful that he finally learned something after all these damn years though. Where the hell were you at in Carolina Ron?

Marv Levy was another one but most people don't remember him being with the Chiefs.

Bill Cowher took 15 years to win a Super Bowl. He'd been to one prior to that, but he didn't win.

Granted, most teams aren't as patient as the Steelers.

Cowher never had a franchise QB until Big Ben.

They were fighting for a playoff spot and he kept a horrific Haskins in the game only to release him the next week. He’s not a good head coach. We had an extremely talented team and the coaching never lived up to the talent.

There are a good bit more than i thought who did it with their 2nd or third team as HC, but still the standard is within 5 years with the team they won the SB with. 

I don't care how much i like or the team likes rhule, if we don't have it done within 5 years, we need to move on and we should have moved on from both fox and rivera after 5.

The 5 year thing has to do with the HC + QB combo.

And yet, with two or three years as exceptions, his defenses in Carolina as a head coach were dead average or worse.

I had great hope when they said he was taking over the defense the last couple seasons....and it got worse.  

Looking back... 2015 was due to Mcdermott, Cam, SOS and a little bit of luck.

Ron IMO is the best coach we have had to date.   Everyone has their own warts and shortcomings.  Rhule will have his once we get to know him better too. 

Yes, but with any luck, Rhule's will be forgiven after he wins a SB.

I mean, say what you want about Ron....he is a proven great defensive guy.  Team to team, scheme to scheme.   Ron can work up a defense if he has the bodies. 

But it's also the NFL.  And if you ain't got the bodies to have a great defense....you ain't got the bodies.  You got to have a DL in the NFL.  Rivera's defenses got weak when the talent got weak on the DL (especially the middle of it).  Some places you just can't get weak at and then think you can overcome deficiencies elsewhere. 

Ron wasn't a great HC.  But he is a great DC IMO.

I used to be there...but as I look back, the switch to soft coverages with the lead, the fall off in production after Mcdermott left.... him fiddling with the formation that last season... indicates even he wasn't sure what to do anymore.

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By Seltzer · Posted

      By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though

      Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.

      That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
