So I know we're all excited about our new coach

But has there been any fan base that wasn't ecstatic about their new coaching staff? I wasn't around for the new Fox regime, and I obviously don't follow any other teams all that closely so I don't have a clue. We're all incredibly excited about what Rivera can hopefully do with this team (myself is definitely included in this); I'm just wondering if this is always the case?

haven't really seen a Panther fan that's mad about Rivera

have seen plenty of Bronco fans mad about the Fox hire

I guess it just depends. Most of the time when a new coach is hired, it's because the old coach was bad and the fans are just happy for a change.

I agree. Very few people have a clue about how well he will do.

On paper he is a safe bet

A lot of Dallas fans were "WTF?" about Wade Phillips, and I know some Charger ones who couldn't believe they gave Norv Turner another chance.

I think your supposition is a lot closer to the truth when it's a rookie head coach, for what it's worth, but were there really a lot of Tampa fans excited about Morris?

Everyone's excited when you have a coaching change, but there are objective reasons to be happy.

Worth noting that a load of the people now touting Rivera were on the Jim Harbaugh, Bill Cowher or Jon Gruden bandwagons before his hire. After the first presser, all of those trains pretty much left town.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
