It took Rivera a while to win too

Or did y'all forget? We are in the exact same spot right now that we were in the early Rivera Era. We didn't think he would even see year 3 (barley did according to reports), everyone wanted him gone, etc. 

 

Heck, it took him until Week 5 his 3rd season to actually have his coaching come to fruition (reports then said that Richardson was preparing to hire a search firm after the Cardinals loss), then 11-1 happened. The team bought in, destroyed the Giants that week and I think we can all say that the Rivera Era was good all things considered. 

 

I say that to say this, give Rhule time. He may flip a switch, he may not. Things look grim now, but fortune could always change.

Rivera’s first two drafts: Cam Newton, Luke Kuechly 

Rhule’s first two drafts: Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn

 

Cam and Luke changed the future overnight. Derrick Brown? Who the hell takes a run stuffer that cannot rush the passer with the 7th overall pick?

Ron was also reportedly going to be fired at the end of the 2012 season before he ripped of a streak in December. 

He was also going to be fired when we started 1-3 in 2013 before his seat got hot and Riverboat Ron was born. 

Ron never won because he was a good coach. I blame him a lot for Super Bowl 50. He was carried to whatever success he had.

Rivera and Fox were both in the postseason by year 3.  Both found their QB by year 2.

You could see the potential in our two young stars Kuechly and Cam in 2012. Cam needed weapons and a bit more refinement. Kuechly needed better defensive tackles because Mcclain and Fua were ass.

Rhule's team has no identity. The defense has been figured out and the offense is fuging terrible with it's only keystone player being a constantly injured running back. The team has tons of holes that they don't know how to fix. Their only good coordinator is old as hell, and their young offensive coordinator can't scheme without an elite running back.

In short, fug this team, and fug Rhule. He ain't figuring poo out anytime soon.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
