Well, get ready for another year of Ron Rivera..

So if the Panthers beat the Bucs, (which looks like will happen.) We will go on and "finish strong" again against weaker teams, probably finish 7-9 or 8-8 and Rivera saves his job again. Then the same crap will happen next year. We will play ourselves out of playoff position but "finish strong" against bad teams. Wrinse and repeat.

If we finish 7-9 or 8-8 you can rest assured he gets another year. Then what happens? We will lose and move out of playoff contention next year and "Finish strong" pathetic

In a year and a half we have beat one team with a winning record. I don't care how we finish, unless JR truly is happy with losing there is no way he keeps Rivera.

The end of this game is exactly why Rivera doesn't deserve another year...we have our best receiver matched up on a guy who can't cover him, Cam is FINALLY in a rhythm, and we call 3 straight runs in order to let them have one last shot with 1 minute left. No matter if they win or not...its just a stupid decision not to try to close out the game yourself.

    • I don't believe this at all.
    • His PPG actually did go up a little in Colorado. We will see. I still sort of believe we saw pretty close to the peak of his abilities last year. Not wishing him ill or trashing him in any way. Just tend to believe we did sell high and correctly so.
    • Well, other teams also had an offseason. I honestly agree with him. Right now I have way more faith in Coker ascending then I do XL. I think it's the TE/WR group dragging us down. Plus he does mention that the list was made with WR's very much valued more than RB's and TE's(I understand the thought process). In that context, we have a very aging AT, two "wait and see" second year players(one leaning bust) and a rookie.  I really think this is a very fair rating, on paper and in the offseason. Quite frankly, aside from the aforementioned and aging AT, this is a bunch of guys still trying to prove themselves.  Then when you go to TE, it's easily a bottom 3-4 unit on paper. That is probably being extremely generous.  RB is where we make our hay. Probably a top 5-10 unit. But....he mentions early in the article that he doesn't value the RB units as much.  So, really, it's the weighting of the skill positions that is what really fugs us.
