Super Bowl?

[Kakarot]

Man, we were getting blown out earlier in the year. We're about to see a string of blowouts smh

[Mol3m4n]

Ron Rivera trying to save himself. Avant would be a better coach.

Why is everyone up in arms/surprised/angry?

[Rastlet]

What a poorly run organization. From the top on down.

[Mol3m4n]

I wonder what Greg Olsen's reaction is.

[NJPanthers12]

Jesus man. Get Rivera and Shula the hell out of here. They cannot be that sensitive. This organization man. It all starts at the top with the owner.

[Gin and Juice]

Dave is just fire fighting for moral until we can limp into the offseason. Avant was a Nicks consultation prize. Shula is as good as gone tho

[Kurb]

I have no respect remaining for this organization.

Avant's comments, for reference:

 

“I’ve been in the league a long time. I know two things. You never want to give a team a chance to win a game, with how much time was left on the clock. And asking a kicker to make a 50-yard field goal with the game on the line is rough sledding,” Avant said, via Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer. “If that’s the only option, yes. But if it’s not, you want to get as close as you can and think score and play to score a touchdown. Because I’d rather the team have to score a touchdown to win the game than to have to kick a field goal. It’s just a lot different. It’s a 30-yard difference.”

If he got cut because he said he wished they had been more aggressive, then damn.  That is barely even criticism. 

 

Fwiw, I thought Avant did a decent job for us, he will likely catch on somewhere.

Nope, but your words do carry consequences.
