Why Ron Rivera Will Provide a Charge to the Carolina Panthers

I can't wait to see what Rivera will do to our defense, I have a good feeling that we will be a great defensive team in the next few years. Wherever Rivera has coached his defense has been in the top 5 almost every year. Top 2 in Chicago 04-05, and San Diego this year.

Reports out of San Diego say that defensive coordinator Ron Rivera will be the next head coach of the Carolina Panthers. He’s not John Gruden; he’s not Bill Cowher; he’s better.

Ron Rivera finished up 2010 with the best overall defense in the NFL. The San Diego Chargers ranked first in total yards allowed, passing yards allowed per game and finished second in yards per play, third-down percent and sacks. The Chargers also finished fourth in rushing yards allowed per game.

Sweet! How many SBs has he won?

One of the main changes I hope for is for Rivera to add a TE capable of stretching the field and actually becoming a viable part of our offense. They have a ton of money to spend on either Zach Miller or Marcedes Lewis, and id imagine being in San Diego around Gates for a few years would mean that Rivera places some importance on that position.

    • That's a very incorrect statement right off the bat, coaches get fired for winning ugly all the time.  Every coach of a playoff team that then gets fired, got fired because they won ugly and didn't improve their players enough to win in the postseason. Guys like Andy Reid have been fired for "winning ugly" like you said, because they kept winning in spite of the improvement of their players. Also, "this is a fanbase starved for wins" is a statement I also don't agree with, I'm not "starved for wins", I'm "starved for a winning and contending franchise" which are two VERY different things. If the team and fans just want to win some games, then that's a loser mentality, sorry, but it is.  We should want to contend, not win a handful of games.  Every time this comes up I point back to the Lions the last 5 years or so.  They were losing games but improving every week while doing so a few years back.  THAT is how you improve as a franchise and move the needle towards contending, not winning games ugly.
    • Good lord. I don’t think I have ever seen a hole that open. 
    • this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games that run counter to vast work......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues.
