Nfl Head Coach Power Rankings (Rivera At #16)

Interesting read. It shows that Rivera has a lot of respect to have him rated at #16 after his rookie campaign already & a 6-10 record. They see the organization heading in the right direction...like us.

"16. Ron Rivera, Carolina Panthers: Don’t let the 6-10 record fool you. Rivera had two goals to accomplish during a 2012 regular season that saw his defense get decimated by the injury bug: develop rookie quarterback Cam Newton and show the Carolina fan base that this organization is headed in the right direction. Mission accomplished."

Shannahan needs to be lower on the list.

This list is bad btw

Some of it makes sense, some doesn't (like most things in life). My take away is the level of respect Rivera is getting already. I think people like his style & feel that he will be very good.

Everyone also needs to give credit to how much Chud's offense made Rivera look better as well.

Additionally, on Chud, Cam would not have looked like the same rookie in nearly any other offense in the league. We all have to give props to Chud & I'm glad he didn't leave for a HC job.

They put him basically where he belongs, playoffs and he should crack top 10. Deep run maybe top 5? John Fox is where he belongs, HC get all the credit and blame with Peyton Manning at QB now could stay basically where he is or better if they make a playoff push.

Why is anyone surprised at Fox being so high? He did a good job for the most part in Carolina, but the franchise got stuck in a loop of mediocrity. It's funny, now that he's gone both he and Hurney have franchise QBs, when they never did while they worked together.

I expect pretty good things out of Denver, and I hope that Hurney did as well with the Rivera pick as he did initially with Fox. So far, it looks good. :)

i wouldn't really call peyton a franchise QB in denver. he's a journeyman now. he's got maybe 2-3 years left? just not what i would call a franchise QB. probably just the way i understand a franchise QB, tho.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
