If we make the playoffs who deserves the glory?

Assuming everyone stays healthy here's our projected new starters.

RG Gary Williams(already on the roster)

SS-Mike Mitchell

DT- Star Lotulelei

CB-Florence

So if we make a playoff run who deserves more credit Rivera or Gettleman? Obviously neither one will deserve all the credit as there's 53 guys on the field making things happen, plus some changes to the coaching staff.

That being said, just curious who do you all think will/ should be applauded more for the turnaround if things finally go our way this year?

I have to say Rivera as he will also get the blame if things go south.

DEFENSE!!!!!!

If we had a "defense" the last two years, we could've/should've/would've made the playoffs.

People wants to point the finger at Cam, but the only way we're going to make the Playoffs this year is gaining help from our defense. Flacco, Big Ben, and Eli are young QBs whom were very lucky to have very good defenses. That's why all three of them each have at least 1SB ring. Go look back at last season: Wilson (Seattle) and Kaepernick (SF).

If we go to the playoffs, the Carolina Panthers deserve the credit.  But if I had to choose between the two, I'd have to say Rivera.  It'd mean he finally learned how to coach.  Gettleman has done great things since getting here, but in the big picture his effect on the team for just THIS YEAR isn't enough to say that he's the reason if we have a good year.  I've always felt that if you can put the majority of credit or blame on one person on a football team, it's the coach.

    • In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit. 
    • Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
