I get the point Rhule is trying to make but it’s really not a bad or intentional hit. Cutting players and chewing their butts like yesterday will work for only show long before the grown men get sick and tired of it. Gotta be careful before you lose the locker room. One thing Rivera was good at was never losing the locker room. His guys played hard for him till the end. He kept Norman in the dog pound early in his career and never lost him. 

You've never been on a team or in a locker room. How would you possibly know?

Yeah when Rivera benched Cam for not wearing a silly tie on a travel day I’m sure the rest of the team was like good call coach, Cam had it coming. Lmao Rivera was trash with his stoic to the end poo. Maybe that’s why even though he is highly likely to die if he gets the rona his players still won’t get vaccinated for him, it’s because they love him so much.

The players like both these coaches. No need to make it a dumb competition

I’m not making it into any sort of competition. I’m simply saying the take that players love Rivera and he never loses the locker room seems patently false to me. Of course it’s just an opinion because I’m not in the locker room. But I’ve watch Rivera’s Panthers play like absolute trash down the stretch for several seasons and they certainly didn’t look like they were trying to win one for the ol gipper. They looked like they were just going through the motions.

He 100% wasn't making the roster anyways, was a long shot for the practice squad even. Makes sense to send a statement to the other guys on the team now. Maybe he'll get invited to another team's camp. I hope he does, it's tough to lose your job because of one dumb mistake.

It happens.  As much as players liked Marty Schottenheimer and bought into his message, at the end of his run in Kansas City the team was undisciplined and completely off the rails mentally.  I remember watching a MNF game when Derick Thomas and Wayne Simmons both melted down and thinking he had lost the team......which he had.

I'm not sure if it is hearing the same message that clearly is no longer working, realizing the coach is a "dead man walking" with the team, or both.

I'm not going to denigrate Ibe because sh¡t happens sometimes when amid action, but you just have to be smarter than that in practice. You don't want to hurt your own teammate, and this was probably emphasized to the entire team after Saturday night's practice.

    • Any QB worth his weight in gold is going to get his guys the ball. Of course he has to have the protection, coaching and experience to do that. Moreover, it has yet to be determined what type of situation this is for a rookie wideout. The most important thing that will determine that is coaching.
    • I watched it this afternoon and I thought some of the best discussions was before it even got to the players. One thing that really jumped out to me was when Smitty was asked about how things have changed since he played and the thing he talked about was how when he played and going back to Jerry Rice says, the #1 targeted or looked to receiver was always the X and there's still a lot of people who's minds are still stuck in that idea. But what has happened is that the, what he calls, the F receiver...the flanker...is now the go to guy. You need the X to try and get safeties out of the box, but the QB is now looking for his flanker most of the time. Lots of good discussions all through it, but for some reason the ones involving Ladd, Corley, and Leggette was the most interesting. Ladd was how he may be best fit for just the slot, but he's the best slot guy in the draft and he's just a guy who gets open and doesn't drop the ball. Corley and Leggette are playmakers who are at a risk of being pigeonholed. Leggette is too stiff to be a slot guy but he can do things like Metcalf. Corley is likely to be used much as he was in college, as the big playmaker you just get the ball in his hands however you can, but he's got a lot of room for development as a receiver. It's just good football talk all the way through  
    • I'd resigned myself to 2000 and never.   Cautiously optimistic based on this off season that 2026 is a real possibility.
