That's not how I feel at all... he's the reason we aren't 2-1.

 

He is still a terrible coach with the track record to back it up.

 

Maybe this game can be a turning point for him but until consistently proven otherwise...he's still garbage.

 

cmon man...didn't you ever see the movie???  DUMB AND DUMBER

He's in his third year and we're still wondering if he's any good. I've never seen any head coach given so much leeway.

 

 

 

Really? It took Bill Cowher 10 years to win the Superbowl.

 

 

I have no problem with giving time to a coach to learn how to win, but that is not how the world works anymore.

Cowher had 6 winning seasons and made the playoffs 6 straight times in his first 6 seasons....

 

How you think that is a legit comparison is beyond belief.

I think he's gone after the season, but he still makes a good scheme.  If we go up two touchdowns on a team with him as a coach we usually win.

 

Basically, we're stuck with him, so I will hope he does well.  And for all the Rivera supporters who have been avoiding posting the last two weeks, it IS, in fact, possible to hope he does well and at the same time still think he's a lousy coach.  Same with Shula.

 

Bottom line, I think they both suck at their jobs, but I'm sure happy they hit on everything right Sunday.  Made it a fun game to watch. :)

So what...

 

Just pointing out that he was given 10 years, Lovie Smith was fired after a playoff apperance. Like I said, everybody has to win now or he is a bum and needs to be fired. Maybe if we could be more patient we might actually have a winning team, but with every loss the coach needs to be fired.

 

This isn't Madden and in reality sometimes things take time to get right.

 

Is Rivera right for this team? Only time will tell and the world doesn't have time anymore.

I don't think the barometer for us is a Superbowl within three years, however people at least want to see competency in close games, and Ron hasn't given us one iota of it in that case

Maybe he was given 10 years because his first 6 years were winning/playoff seasons...LOL...it's not that hard to understand.

 

Rivera is to this point on his way to 3 straight losing seasons....again compare apples to apples...you are way off at this point.

 

 

 

HINT: you'd need to find a coach who had 3 losing seasons then won a superbowl with the same team

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.

      Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
