Fanbase not excited by Rivera?

either we represent the only intelligent football fans the Panthers have.. or the writers are looking for a story because they don't find Rivera flashy..

I know one thing, he'll be bringing the type of defense I like.. (I'm hoping anyhow)

looking at the comments on the observer article that Gantt posted regarding Rivera it seemed most of the fans didn't want him.

guarantee you 90% of the people that posted comments there have never even heard of Rivera and only heard he was a defensive coordinator, thus immediately dismissing any chance of him being a good coach.

for me personally, I wanted either Harbaugh or Rivera. I'm very excited we got Rivera.

I'd hate to judge anything based on comments posted on the Observer site.

Those guys are candidates to be on "Are You Smarter than a First Grader?"

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
