Great Rivera interview by Sorensen

'Q: How many starting positions are still being contested?

Probably five really good position battles are going on. We’re pretty well set with our No. 2 receiver (Brandon LaFell). But our No. 3 receiver is still a battle. Is it going to be (Louis) Murphy, is it going to be (Seyi) Ajirotutu, is it going to be Kealoha? Our defensive tackles are battling it out. It looks like Ron Edwards is going to be the nose but who’s going to be the three? I think Captain Munnerlyn has a foothold on (cornerback opposite Chris Gamble) but they’ll still battling it out for the third position."

Q: Every camp has surprises. Who has surprised you?

I will say right now defensive back Josh Thomas is really flashing very well, No. 22, he’s done some really good things. I think (wide receiver) Armanti (Edwards) has flashed. This is his third camp so if he continues that would be great for us. When you talk about guys getting better and progressing he really truly has progressed. (Wide receiver) Kealoha (Pilares) is flashing. He’s having a very good camp. (Safety) Charles Godfrey’s has had an outstanding, outstanding training camp.

Glad to hear that about Godfrey. He has all the ability in the world, he's just made bad decisions in coverage the last two years. RR keeps talking up Edwards as well.

One thing I really like about RR is not only did he bring in a lot of great role players from san diego, but he also brings in other guys from within that division for cheap. he recognized talent that people in the media don't and sees what they can bring to a team.

    • When we drafted Bryce....no one was arguing that was his game.    It is Dave's.  And he has drafted a roster post Bryce that fits it.   I still think Bryce is sort of the misplaced character in the present day build of the Panthers.  Think he naturally fits a spread them out game and nickel and dime them.  Not the chunk play vertical game on the perimeter game that is the Dave tree.  I still think Morgan is building something more along the lines of his 2003 era team.....and the best fit at QB is a downfield gambler (which is also what Dave Canales did at Tampa and Pete did at Seattle). 
    • Couple of other things that I remember even though I never rewatched the game: Play after the cotchery catch (because yes it was a fuging catch) was the strip sack fumble 6.  Can’t remember which broncos defender left early/ jumped offside on the missed field goal but it wasn’t called.  Aqib Talib (seriously fug that guy forever) getting beat by Philly brown so bad that he grabbed his face mask and yanked it like he was trying to break his neck. We got the penalty for it, but honestly he should have been thrown out of the game. Can’t remember which drive but I remember ginn running out of bounds when he seemingly had space to gain another 5-10 yards on a drive where we didn’t score.  Kony Ealy would have likely been the Super Bowl MVP had we won which sounds absurd to say since he basically disappeared from the face of the earth after that game
