meh...

 

Who knows for sure. But I think he would have been fired today. With one of the best wins in Panther history, how can you fire him? But now he needs to turn the rest of the season into the best Panther season ever. 14- 2 is a damn fine record. Can the team do it??

Rivera def deserves his props, whole coaching staff really...the D is amazing and to put the best players he had available in the secondary, he started...don't mention his decision making with beason...it worked and to use Chase more to the teams advantage is even more convincing that this man deserves this win.  Nevertheless he should have used Chase more in the reg season beside ST, overall great game im still amazed by the team performance, needed this as a fan. GO PANTHERS!!!!

I like Rivera as a guy. I think he's personable, and the kind of person you'd love to have working your grill at a backyard get together, or drink a few beers with on a weekend. I also think he's a very knowledgeable defensive coach, who knows how to make a D perform to high expectations. I want him to succeed - I really do - not just because I like him as a person, but because if he does, then my team does too. But the NFL is the ultimate performance driven profession. He needs to keep that in mind for the thirteen games remaining this season, and not retreat into the conservative shell that has been nothing but poison for this team since even before he got here, dating back to the Fox days. If there's time on the clock, there's time to score. I hope he takes that to heart.

I'm intrigued.

 

This was not a Rivera type game that we have seen before.

 

-We didn't build up a lead in the first half and then play "not to lose" in the second.

-We didn't do the typical run every play so we burn time off the clock after sustaining a decent lead.

-I still saw deep throws down the field even after we were up by 21 or 28 in the third.

 

Did something finally click for Ron??

      Best and worst PFF grades from Panthers' preseason loss to Texans

      By Icege · Posted

      I'm happy with TMac, but Tyler Warren was last season's Tyler Linderbaum for me in that he was at a position that wasn't one of the five pillars but he was the best player at his position AND one of the top talents in the draft. I cannot fuging wait for the Panthers to start winning again so that those guys fall to us like they seem to for teams like Baltimore & Philadelphia.

      Panthers' content round up

      By Icege · Posted

      Still working on consuming all of these so I don't have summaries available, but I figured there might be another Huddler or three trying to kill time before tonight's final preseason game.   Panthers Blueprint: Training Camp The in-house produced Blueprint series has given behind-the-scenes look on the field and off. Start the day with Robert Hunt's family, be in the morning meetings, mic'd up players during practice (Jaycee, Rozeboom, Icky, and Bryce), roster evaluations by the staff, and plenty of camp highlights capping off with FanFest.   Processing Blue (Mike Kaye & Alex Zietlow Mike and Alex are back talking about a variety of topics including but not limited to: joint practice + preseason game vs. Houston, Trey Hendrickson trade rumors involving Carolina, training camp awards, draft pick draft, and various thoughts about the team.   Jordan & Jake 706: Opening Day Another in-house Panthers' production, the most recent episode of Jordan and Jake talk about how to properly balance intensity in practice, react to the starters being shutdown for the preseason finale, share their thoughts on the newest Panther QB, and more.   Raw Room - Ep 278 - Gas Pedal (ft. Mike Davis) Assistant special teams' coach Darren Bates' Raw Room podcast has former Panthers' RB Mike Davis on his weekly podcast. I'm about halfway through this one and it's been a lot of fun. The Raw Room guys (DB, his friend Alex Sweets, former Eagles/Chargers OT King Dunlap, and former Atlanta DB Jalen Collins) are hilarious and Mike fits right in. They talk about his football experience coming up, decommitting from Florida and how he decided on South Carolina, and more. Warning: If you're the type of person that is easily distracted by accents, despite XL being on the team, you might have issues with understanding the Memphis dialect. If you don't care about how somebody talks, just what they're talking about, tune in!

      Allen was borderline unplayable in College.  He's an absolute unicorn in terms of his career panning out the way it has.
