Ron Rivera's Status

The fact that any of these dumb thread still exist must mean he just might be too Hispanic for some...no matter the record.

Bill Cohwer is the perfect blend of hispanic for those posters: 0%

On pace for 12-4 with the best defensive and two of the best offensive seasons ever in the history of the Panthers under his watch..

"Is it still good enough?" <====with all due respect.. STFU..

See with Rivera we became competetive from day one. We simply had a lack of talent on two of the three phases of this team. Under Rivera in the first two season we lost games bc the defense was unable to ever get turnovers or off the field.

Special Teams and defense are loaded now..the secondary is the only unit needing any kind of talent immersion...but not an emergency type of need.

In the Saints game the defense and special teams carried this team when under Chud it was the offense carrying the team to mask the poor defensive unit and special teams.

One more season of addressing OL and WR CBs and complete...

Coach of the Year if we win the division....and he will be the best, most likable coach we have ever had.

  

I can't wait to see the threads that are going to be made after the playoffs..

I see that this has been interpreted as some weird I don't like Rivera soapbox. My thread, this thread, is about his inevitable contract extension and a call to those who said playoffs or bust to come back and tell what they are now willing to give the man who has given us the playoffs.

Why is it so awful?

He will get extended - but us in the real world are all on lame duck deals!

It's a vote of no confidence in the coach.  Coaches obviously try to win every year, but they build systems and develop players for years to come.  When you tell them, and thus the team, that you are no longer sold on their direction by not giving them an extension, you give them a huge vote of no confidence, and that could have ripple effects.

 

There's no reason not to extend Ron this offseason... I doubt it's a question for Gman or JR, it's more a question of how much he'll make - and the playoffs will determine that.

    • We agree here dawg. I'd love for Bryce to succeed as would all huddlers. I have not seen a single huddler hate Bryce for anything other than his play on the field / potential / skillset. He hasn't gotten any of the irrational hate having nothing to do with football that Cam got. And yeah I understood going into this season with Bryce again as there weren't a ton of options, but man we missed the fuging mark on upgrading at backup QB with someone who could actually push Bryce. Bryce had zero pressure on him with a 100% washed up Dalton being the only other NFL caliber QB in the system. That absolutely needs to change this offseason. Ideally with an actual starter upgrade but that seems extremely unlikely due to not having many FA options and a bad draft. But at the very least with someone like you mentioned, young/upside and/or day 3 pick in the draft.   Another note, we have a top paid and top performing OL, great young talent at WR incl. likely OROY, great RB group, average all around TE group, offensive coach with creativity in the system and good play designs (poor situational playcalling but still I put out current offensive coaching staff over Shula who held Cam back for instance). Not the absolute best situation for a QB to be in, but still a very good situation around him. And yet we have a bottom 8 offense (6th lowest points scored). Imagine taking a victory lap for a QB leading his team to the 6th lowest points scored in the league and the 22nd highest passer rating (despite being asked to do less than many other QBs; i.e. Bo Nix who isn't great either and has a slightly lower passer rating but Sean Payton actually lets him try to throw the ball deep and has him throw significantly more than Bryce). Crazy
    • similar to Atlanta and the NHL.  Atlanta has lost two NHL teams (and lost a minor leaguer).  Now there's another coalition pulling together another proposal for Atlanta to get an NHL expansion. While I'd like hockey to be back in Atlanta 'cause hockey is fun, I am skeptical that it'll happen based on previous teams' experience here alternatively: similar to Atlanta hosting a Major Tennis Tournament in advance of the US Open every mid/late summer.  Aside from the fact that Atlanta is said to be the country's largest Tennis playing city (with both USTA and ALTA, along with a number of side leagues) - playing tennis outdoors in Atlanta summer is miserable *and* they had difficulty attracting players... ticket sales were not good. So the Atlanta Open closed after 14 years.  They just couldn't make it happen, even if for all intents it appears to be massive tennis interest in the surrounding area.
    • So I saw where Luke was doing that show parallel to the game. Whatever it was, statcast something something, knew it would be a good watch. I don’t get ESPN any more but that would be one of the about few things I would watch outside of games.     He doesn’t fool around on the radio broadcast.
