Rivera: "individual breakdowns" responsible for blocked punts

[Kevin Greene]

John Fox on Ron Riveria's response . . . ."It is what is is."

 

No it was "That's weird, a punt is usually a good play".  

[FootballMaestro]

Carolina STs have generally sucked for the better part of a decade now, if not longer.

 

Yeah, but I was trying to be fair, only put on Rivera whats him.

[WesleyM]

i guess ron exempts himself from breakdowns

He obviously doesnt exempt himself from the crack pipe

[cptx]

Sometimes I wonder if being a "good dude" is more of a hindrance than a help in football, or most sports for that matter.  Perhap we need someone who is not a good dude. 

 

You were military, who made the best officers? The ones that wanted everyone to like them, or the ones that maybe were sort-of dicks, but knew their poo and you could trust them to make good decisions?

 

Riv is a player guy. I want the asshole that holds everyone responsible, including themselves.

[Mr. Scot]

I agree with him.

To be more specific, the individual who broke down is Richard Rodgers.

[Marc Anthony]

Typical Ron response, he is no NFL head coach. Least Mora Sr. Would say, "defense sucked, offense sucked, and the coaches sucked".

Well, the Ass kissers were the worst and no one liked them. 

 

But I agree.

Rivera is Mike Munchak. Clueless head coach who is loyal to clueless coaches.

Munchak was given the ultimatum to fire coordinators or be fired. His loyalty cost him his job. Wonder if we are seeing a repeat here?

[mc52beast]

No mention of the fact that the Vikes coach admitted they saw flaws in our ST... Ron seriously acts like he's in denial, like he really doesn't know how bad he sucks.

[jtnc]

Richard Rodgers was never really qualified to be the special teams coach anyway, but of course Rivera gives his best bud a job.

[ThinkAboutIt]

Also "it was disheartening to play so poorly after the bye" per J.Jones

 

"Disheartening"? Is this football or his time of the month?

 

What does YOUR HEART have to do with anything, Ron? You're the head coach, not the HEART coach. It's your job to "figure it out."

 

Someone fire this guy. I've always had a problem with him trying to feel his way through the job instead of thinking his way through it. But what would you expect from someone blind?

[frash.exe]

The only words I want to hear out of Ron's mouth at this point is, "I'm resigning as head coach of the Carolina Panthers"
