Why Rivera was the right hire?

Don't be too certain about that

Exactly...all we have is the system, the foundation, not sure we have all the peices here (i.e. players) to make it work just yet. That will come in time but don't expect a #1 defense next season.

Offence will take a lot long I suspect with no decent available QB's out there.

But but, Sean McDermont took over for Jimmy Johnson.

Well D was good last year for the defense we were running and how the offense was. Im not sure how good our personnel really is with the Jim Johnson 4-3 scheme.

That's my point. Different system all together. Most of our players may do well but it's not certain that they all will thrive in this syatem.

If you read the Chargers boards you read about how Rivera took average talent and made them into the #1 D in the NFL. I am hoping he can do that here. I think we have good talent at LB (w/ TD healthy). Everywhere else we are average or worse. Of course drafting a solid DT or two could give us a respectable DL in a hurry. DBs would probably be OK if we were getting more pressure up front.

Correct and it will just have to play out. Rivera will get the most out of these guys I have no doubt but will it be good enough for him. We will see with the draft and FA what he thinks of the players he has on the team. That should give us a clue as to what may be ecpected with the D.

    • Think the "official time" put out was 4.48, but there were a lot of scouts there who of course all had difference times as it's all handed timed by them.  Think I saw it as low as 4.43 and as high as 4.62 or something, but in the end it's all basically the same speed because 40 yard dash is so pointless. Anyone who complains about his speed is just someone who wants a Chase/Jefferson/Nabers style #1 as opposed to an Evans style #1 who isn't going to beat you because of his speed but his other abilities. In the end, he's fast enough for a player his size and surprisingly quicker and more agile than people give him credit for too. The real problem is that Panthers fans can't get our past big WR failures out of their head, they hear "big WR" and automatically see a plodding KB or Jarrett in their minds and assume that's also T-Mac.
    • If you are buying Silver Club, 300 level, try and the buy ones that have the Lot 1 parking pass.  it is steps to the stadium Also, buy on the shade side my PSls used to be section 342, under the overhang.  I didnt care about sun or rain plenty of sites have interactive  maps that can show you   Just know, if they are opposite side of 342, the sun will beat on your head…endzones too.   if, you know for sure that you are going, and you need a hotel room, do it now  you can always cancel … remember, even if the panthers suck,  the national press follows them as do their fans.  Hotel rooms go fast for that game 
    • didn't he run like a 4.52?
