I am wondering if Gettlemen is more involved than we think.  The guy is a football guy, he knows football in and out.  I wonder if he is actually behind the scenes helping with game planning etc.  I wouldn't be surprised if he had a big hand in helping Rivera plan as well as making the guy a better coach.  He said "If we do this right", JR would be holding up the trophy.  I cant help but to think he has laid out some master plan for this season to do just that.

ROFL.  Just refuse to give Rivera his props eh?  GM helping game plan?  Really? 

 

 

Maybe just maybe Rivera is a good coach.

 

Maybe just maybe he is learning to be better just like players get better after playing a few years.

 

Maybe just maybe the team is executing better thus ending up with better results

 

Maybe just maybe we are winning games with a dominant defense because that just so happens to be Rivera's specialty.

Actually, in Gettleman's old role with the Giants, opponent scouting was part of what he did.

 

He was, in fact, part of the group that built the game plan the Giants used to beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

 

That experience is helpful for a GM.

um no, I have gave Rivera is props in many threads, read the rest of the forum before making dumb comments. kthx.

 

So I should read the all of your forum post to get context for your original post?   Ahhh makes about as much sense as the OP.

 

You basically stated that Rivera has improved because we are winning and maybe it's because the GM helped him?  Is there any other coach someone would even insinuate something like that?  GM helping with week to week game planning?  That's just disrespectful.

I think GM is just better at picking up FA's and drafting players that fit our team. And in turn I think that's helped Rivera. He is what is new to the team as well as Shula moving to OC. But, all these new guys have made a big impact maybe even larger then our prior guys have.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      This is always a non-story by the time camp begins.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      By TD alt · Posted

      I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.

      overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.
