Why is everyone jumping on the Rivera Bandwagon?

I've started to go the JR route, wanting to see progress more so than W/L record at this point.

My biggest fear is giving Cam Alex Smith Syndrome where he has a new coach/coordinator every year, basically ruining his development. With the salary cap problems and huge contracts we have, if a new GM and coach come in they won't win for a couple years anyway in all likelihood, and then we'll be calling for their head too.

I've been vocal at times while pissed at Rivera after a loss wanting him to be fired, but on the flip side, if he fixes his own problems, and makes Chud run a more balanced offense, maybe instead of being 1-13 in 7-point games, he could be 11-3 and all of a sudden we've got a contender.

I'm waiting to see what happens the next three games.

Week 4 against Atl is when I got out of my seat. Week 5 against Sea I was headed to the exit. 6 was the bye, and then Dallas and Chicago. So I haven't been on the so called wagon since mid-season, and it's going to take more than this one win to get me back on. He has to many stupid decisions to make up for.

yeah....i'm not seeing it.

a few people saying just wait and see what he does the rest of the year and a few more who believed he should be given 3 years to see what he can do doesn't exactly make a bandwagon but if you've got to think in terms of extreme positions to make a thread, have at it.

I had to stop reading the huddle for a few days it was making me sick.... People like JOAT talking about giving him one more year to get things figured out... Id rather drink Drain'o

i think he's held that position all along. understandable, imo.

i usually feel like that, but in this case i don't think he's shown enough for the new GM to not go out and find his own HC.

i haven't seen the progress that i'd like, but i'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt the rest of this season. it all depends on how well he coaches, if they win out, etc. he has to look really good the last three games and that's to even warrant really being considered for the 2013 season and on.

i've only seen one or two really advocating for rivera. others are just trying to keep an open mind for the rest of this season. some just like giving a coach three years. like i said, not exactly a bandwagon but whatever.

    • One thing about it, he's not thinking about retiring. I found it odd that some Huddlers were taking rumors and running with them, imagining a slow down and "up-playing" injuries. Moton feels great and is still in his prime according to him, and his game is still indicative of his thoughts.  Sure, it may ultimately come down to economics, but I am sure that everyone involved is motivated to keep him in Charlotte.
    • I think the knee stuff with Moton has been blown way out of proportion. The exact quote was “It’s chronic stuff. Most linemen deal with it. But it’s just figuring out what we can do to make sure it’s limited and I’m still able to explode off it, which right now I can and I feel like I can in the future,” After a while, you start learning more about it and what can we do to make sure it’s as little of an issue as possible. I feel like I’m moving like I was when I was younger.” I don't view that as a guy who's saying his knees are on their last leg I see that as a 10-year NFL olineman saying that obviously after 10 years of playing a really physical sport, he's never truly gonna be 100% healthy again and he's gonna need to spend more time with the training staff to ensure his body can continue to perform at a high level. I think Moton has another 3 to 5 years left if he wants to continue playing.   
    • So much crying. Tiresome. All of you should have had enough time to come to terms with the team picking up his 5th year...
