When its all said and done it boils down to Cam and who we surround him with

I think the careers of Rivera, Gettleman, future OC, and fan satisfaction boils down to Cam growing emotionly and providing him with the tools,protection,and the development he needs to flourish.

This league is all about the QB and Cam is freakish with his talent but he needs to further develop the mental aspects of the game.

To me Rivera is very good at making the best of questionable talent on defense as he did with our secondary and banged up dl last year. I am fairly confident we will hire a competent OC. On offense, Cam needs a better OL,a quicker release, and weapons that have the ability to get open and make plays.The rest is up to Cam to run this offense.If we score 30 points per game we will be a playoff contender.

Well if the decision to give Rivera one more year backfires we will have wasted first 3 years of Cam's career.

I'm waiting to hear on the new offensive coordinator hire. All of this is a moot point if we whiff on that.

I do not see that happening. Having Cam should help us in getting a good OC

Gotta do nothing but put weapons around Cam at all costs. Everywhere.

Best thing in this thread was the comment that Rivera can do things to get the defense adequate. Where we do more with less is on the defensive side of the ball, because Rivera has the ability to stretch talent there.... offense, it will boil down to how much talent we have. Rivera can squeeze the lemon harder to get more juice from less talented players on D.

Cam actually has one of the fastest releases in pro football. This was shown in our 3rd preseason game vs the jets measuring release time.

I'm sure cam would get rid of the ball quicker if we used more of them crazy slant routes, outs and quick hooks. Seriously whenever we go to pass the ball, if its not a screen pass I can't see any of our receivers on the screen, all are at least 10-15 yards downfield.

I agree. I think a solid front 4, Kuechly + one other good LB (could be TD, Beason or anderson, who knows whats happening there), and a ball hawking free safety would be enough to keep our defense in the top half of the NFL. Put the best scrubs we can find everywhere else on D (although I hope we do keep captain).

    • Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea? 
    • Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.
    • It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?
