Wonder what those "festering" issues were.

The jimmies be Rustlin' 

[Mother Grabber]

probably because one of the DBs said that the Dline was uglier than the Oline, and the WRs took exception to that.

Just speculation,have to wonder if the "issues" he his talking about concern a player or two that are no longer here...

..we will never know.Just have a feeling that maybe this may have helped seal a certain players fate.

Damn, you just might be right...

 

Rivera — who earned NFL Coach of the Year honors after guiding the Panthers to the NFC South crown in 2013 — once had the same view coaches needed not to set foot in the locker room.

Now he considers such reluctance as his biggest mistake during his first two years. He says he was unaware of some locker room issues that festered.

"I didn't know because I wasn't there," he told the audience. "That was my fault. It opened my eyes. I have a vested interest to be in there."

Culture of mediocrity.

It took Rivera two years to grab the bull by the horns. Better late than never

Soon will come the Smitty bashers.

[Mr. Scot]

I think a head coach asserting his presence in the locker room is a good thing.

God that Jordan Gross dude was clearly a total team cancer...wait, that's who we're talking about, right?
