I type on my phone, it is quick and often has errors. If you can't deal with that then sorry.

2011 Rivera hire - brought in his own QB within first 1-3 years. That is what happens.

 

I type on my phone, too. No excuse. Coaches don't usually bring quarterbacks with them. A coaching change usually means that a team sucks. The team sucking usually means there will soon be a change at QB, often with a 1st Rd QB selection. The two are usually effects of the same cause, not cause and effect. The QB when Rivera walked in the door was still Jimmy Clausen, not Cam Newton, so your point falls apart right there. Peyton Manning didn't win a Super Bowl with his first head coach, so why does Cam Newton have to?

All I know is this team desperately needs an innovative offensive mind at either OC of HC in the near future. This team will never consistently compete in the modern NFL era if it cannot score points. The NFL today is geared towards and favors high-powered offenses and we won't see sustained success until we can field an offensive unit capable of scoring points and making big plays. Ground and pound, ball control offensive schemes are a thing of the past and we are only digging ourselves deeper and getting further behind the longer we continue to play offense as we do. Shula isn't the answer. We need to be able to play defense and make explosive plays on the offensive side of the ball while pushing the ball down the field.

Jimmy Clausen was an inherited QB. NFL history shows new coaches bring in their own QB within their first 3 years on the job. Rivera did...just like almost every other new hire does. Rivera supports my statement....how you think it is an example against it is mindboggling.

Not once did I mention Newton winning a Super Bowl.

Just said Super Bowl QBs are the exception to the rule and are the ones who survive the coaching changes.

None of that is opinion. Just fact. It was all broken down over the last decade last time firing Rivera was brought up.

But I am done. I don't debate with grammar police, most go there when they have weak arguements and want to deflect
