Ron Rivera says he handles Cam Newton in his own way. Thinks Cam leadership question will be moot when Panthers get where they want to be.

Yeah, I doubt we will get where we want to be as long as that moron Rivera is on the sidelines looking clueless.

Favorite part: he mentioned "nobody did a good job. players, coaches". Good. Put it out there that the entire organization needs to improve. I don't know...I have a good feeling about the next game. I expect a drastic improvement come the Atlanta game....or we spiral into oblivion this season. I don't see a middle ground.

Can't believe all the crap Cam is getting...

Interesting. Do you think he handled the press conference maturely?

Do you think his pouting is inspiring to his teammates?

We want him to be like a coach on the field, right? Would you be okay with any of our coaches acting like that?

Still love Cam. I just want him to buck up and be the leader I believe he can be. Once he gets it together upstairs, the sky is the limit for this guy.

But why should we have hope that they will do a good job next time around?

Gut feeling more than anything. Plus, more time to watch film and prepare (even if it's just our own film from last night and the film we have of Atlanta/NY). We have a few days to rest our guys so we can go harder into practice Monday. I think this was a huge wake up call to the staff and players. Getting smacked around like that in a big game ALWAYS has one of two outcomes: you either put your nose to the grindstone and improve, or you fall and die. You never stay the same (and that's week to week, regardless of how big the game was). I just have hope that we'll improve rather than get worse.

Exactly, its not that complicated to not act the way he does. He knows it, his coaches know it, his team mates know it. He's admitted it and still sulks.....and on the biggest professional stage he has ever been on. At least pretend you aren't doing it.....or try to

It's clear our front office is in the "Fox hole" together for the long haul. Hurney was on the post game last night saying how awesome Ron is doing and what great job he's doing delivering a consistent message. Smh...

Obviously we shouldn't expect them to throw one another under the bus, but last night wasn't a time for pats on the back.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
