Rivera will be....

The best coach the Panthers have ever had. I just finished watching a couple videos of Coach with the team and all i can say is WOW! Its so cool for me as a fan to actually see the coach really communicating with our players on a personal level. I belive that RR is just starting to settle in with his surroundings and the players are coming around to it as well. just thought i would share this revelation with you guys and get your responses on how you think coach is doing.

see its kinda neat that i said will be not is. just thought i would point that out.

uhm okay...? and I said I'd like to see some results on the field before I made that decision. You can predict all you want from his video interviews, but I prefer to go off what I see on the field, which has been far from 'will be best coach we've ever had' material... but there are understandable reasons for that, which is why I'm not freaking out about how the team is doing.

you're welcome to predict his future but I think we don't have sufficient evidence yet to conclude he's going to be our greatest coach ever. That's my opinion, disagree if you want.

Jimmie Johnson doesn't apply, they stripped the team of vets the year before Rivera got here and Fox got that raw deal. Rivera's excuse would have to be the lack of training camp.

Oh, you're correct, but I was referring more to the other guy's comment about Rivera being the worst first year coach in Panther's history which, even if it comes to pass, means little, a la Jimmie Johnson

he's pretty close to being the worst first year coach in Panthers history.

yeah, I know it doesn't mean anything... just trivia if you're interested

Capers 7-9

Siefert 8-8

Fox 7-9

Rivera ???

didn't fox start out 3-8 though? 4 wins out of the last 5 or something. never know how we could finish. seems unlikely we'll hit 7 wins, but really, I don't think we're too concerned about first year record all things considered

fox' early teams were streaky

2002

started 3-0

lost 8 in a row, then won 4 of 5.

2003

started 5-0

had a 3 game losing streak somewhere in there before a winning streak to end the season/enter the playoffs

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
