The franchise needs to reboot and get back to their roots.

[UnluckyforSome]

Reboot and roots isn't going to happen, not with the man at the top calling the shots.

Remember, he is making his mark, and he has it all figured out.

Ron worked until Cam’s shoulder got smoked. It was the sentinel moment that doomed the best run this franchise has ever seen. It was going swimmingly. Cam had put in work on his touch and mechanics. We had the most complete defense this team had ever had and a coach they believed in… and then it all went to ish. 

No, Ron only looked liked it worked because of Cam, so when his shoulder got smoked, it all fell apart quickly.

He was a GREAT Monday to Saturday coach, his players loved him and would run through a brick wall for him.  But he was one of the worst game day coaches I've ever seen, terrible clock management, overall decision making, and a complete inability to adjust mid-game to anything.  We always won in spite of Rivera, not because of him, I was calling for us to replace him with McDermott even after we went 15-1, because I felt like we had coaching mistakes all season long, but Cam's magical season bailed him out time and time again.

He built a reputation as Riverboat Ron because his job was on the line and he made a handful of decisions that any good coach would have made, not because he was some gambler.  

Dan Campbell is actually who the NFL media thought Ron Rivera was.

We’ve tried three offensive minded head coaches in a row and none of them have worked. We also switched to the more popular 3-4 and that didn’t work either.

every heard of the blue ocean strategy? That’s what we were until Tepper. It worked okay. Then we decided to copy everyone else and it failed horrendously 

Just because it hasn't worked out for us, doesn't mean it's the wrong type of coach to hire.

Most HC's fail in the end, and many of them sooner rather than later.

But we fell for a snake oil salesmen in Rhule, then hired someone with a vision and didn't let them draft the QB they wanted and gave him a very quick hook because of it, and then hired someone who maybe had a chance at being decent, but got saddled with busted ass Bryce as his QB.

Failed execution doesn't mean it was the wrong idea, don't let past mistakes trick you into a poor decision for your future.

This is the softest team I have ever seen 

gutless

no pushback
