An indicator that Rivera might be safe


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Rivera has delivered exactly what he promised! Little Brother is getting bigger! Is it happening at the rate we desire? No, but I vote one more year! Then its playoffs or unemployment line

I'd agree that anything short of at least making the playoffs next year isn't good enough.

cp8789 you don't know poo about coaching in the NFL so just because you talk to some guy that promised peppers he could maintain a sub-2.0 GPA and fail almost every black history course he took and still play football at UNC doesn't mean the guy who doesn't know when to call a timeout needs a third chance

plenty of people on here that don't know what they're talking about do some coaching on the side

So, during the course of a 16-game season, you're satisfied with a coach earning his keep using 25% of the season as criteria?

Thanks for setting the bar... now we all know what your expectations are.

I am satisfied with an improvement, which is what we got. This wasn't going to be fixed over night. Yes, mistakes were made; mainly on the offensive side. However, other things were accomplished. The Panthers finally have a top ten defense again. If the Panthers keep the basic offense that they have instilled these past four weeks they are easily a playoff team.

People have gotten wrapped up in the first three-fourth's of the season.

The fact is that the Panthers coaches made adjustments and the players have stepped their own game up.

I'm guessing you are on the Chip Kelly bandwagon. If so, what makes Kelly more qualified than Rivera? It certainly can't be his NFL experience, or his experience in close games (he won't blow NFL teams out), how about his ability to run a defense and offense similar to the Panthers (his current offense: the spread and defense: 3-4 hybrid aren't even close to what the Panthers run).

The team is trending up, to ruin that now would destroy the locker room and most likely put us in the basement again next year.

Carl Torbush recruited JP, clearly you don't know anything about the Tar Heels football program but you may not be a Heels fan so I can't blame you there.

However, being around the game daily being that it's my job makes me qualified. I don't tell you how to run your job, so don't try to tell me that I don't know more than you about my job.

    • How do you expect him to step up in the pocket when Ickey is being pushed to the spot you want him to be. Stills don’t tell the entire picture.
    • They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
