Player Reaction to Coach Rivera Hire


Galvatron

Recommended Posts

probably won't have any decent reactions until practices start. right now he's just a guy that they've heard of and maybe talked to a couple times.

not really a lot of people around the faciltity anyways these days. actually, is rivera even around?

Found a certain amount of irony in Jeff King being asked...

his reaction was about what i expect.

getting asked what he thinks about the HC hire that said we need a better TE than what we have on the team. not sure i would have asked him.

"When you get a new staff, it's almost like everybody is a rookie. You've got to prove yourself to all the coaches and establish how you work and how you play," Connor said. "It creates a new energy, and I think the level of play and competition will go up."

this comment gets me pumped. I hadnt thought about this. Guys will no longer take their job for granted and will be playing harder.

    • Joe Person   @josephperson · 16m     Panthers become the 1st team this yr with 5 weekly winners: Rico Dowdle, Ryan Fitzgerald, Sam Martin, Tre'von Moehrig and Bryce. Panthers last did that in 2017: Cam Newton, Julius Peppers, Luke Kuechly, Jonathan Stewart and Damiere Byrd.
    • Gotta wonder if Smitty's brain has turned to mush with how hard he played in the NFL
    • OK, fair enough--however, since my point was that drafting a QB in the top 10 is stupid, if you consider the players who were not drafted in the top 10 or those who WERE drafted in the top 10 and did not secure starting positions with the team that drafted them, you should see the point.  Is it smart to draft a QB in the top 10 when only 4 are still starting for the team that drafted them.  Next, consider that half of that number, 2, were drafted outside the first round.  Next, there are 4 (Goff, Mayfield, Jones, and Darnold) who are starting on other teams after busting.   That number could increase as Arizona seems ready to move on from Murray, Miami is not sold on Tua, and jacksonville is still waiting for Trevor to start looking elite.  Bryce?   So to answer your question, there are MANY more QBs in the NFL who have busted and become starters on other rosters, were drafted after day 1, or are still on the cusp than the four who have become elite.  I thought that point was made.
