Postgame Reaction from Cam and Rivera

Rivera:

I really think that we just missed opportunities... We played a good first half... We had an opportunity to start the second half, got to 3rd and 12, you've got to make that play, you've got to understand what the coverage call is, you've got to understand your technique, push through to your technique and make the play. Bottom line, I'm not going to sugar coat it, we have to get better at those things.

Opportunities to make plays - I mean at 3rd and 12, we don't get off the field, then they get a big play down the field, then they are in field goal range, then it's 3rd down and we have a chance to stop them, but they pick it up, next thing you know they score a touchdown. I mean, we are not consistent on third down.

Until the second half I thought they came out and did some great things... We played the way you'd like in the first half but this game is four quarters. One thing I liked was the way the offense went down the field and got the touchdown and made the two point conversion to tie it at 35 35 as well gave ourselves a chance to tie the game and who knows what happens after that. Then they come out and throw a big one to 81...

Cam:

We came out explosive. That's how football is supposed to be played. Plays were called and executed, blocking, plays were in there. Second half we came out and it was as if we were just trying to hold on. Can't do that to a team like this with the explosive offense the talent they ahve on defense, have to be in attack mode all four quarters.

To some degree I do, it's the small things taht are impacting us in a big way. Finishing, executing, decision making, you know, those things you have to master in this league or you are going to get exposed. This game we put on a clinic on how to lose a game, simple and plain, going out on a limb to say it but we can't lose games like that but somehow we did.

Anyone else bugged by the way Rivera says the word "play?"

Same poo different week with these press conferences. Although Cam looks slightly less like Mopeyhead progressively after these losses. Hmm.

He should. It was better than last week. But giving up that many yardage and points is just terrible

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
