The players have his back.

@DNewtonespn: Ron Rivera sets the tone for #Panthers with messages on life lessons http://t.co/Fn95IWGvOW

"Rivera spends almost as much time talking life lessons as he does football, because he knows one ultimately has to do with the other.

'His quotes and all the little things, it’s more than I’ve ever been around,’ strong safety Roman Harper said."

“Ron’s very effective. Guys respond to him,’’ tight end Greg Olsen said. “That’s pretty evident with the way guys continue to battle through adversity. We’ve had our fair share over the years, and there’s never the question of the locker room coming undone. There’s never a conflict around here.

“If you look around the league, that’s not the norm.’’

 

And there were people here on this board claiming he had lost the locker room

all the players used to love Hurney as well - so do you let the inmates run the asylum ?

Well, Hurney gave free money to a lot of guys so he was buying love and respect. I think the respect for Rivera is more grassroots.

      Happy Thanksgiving You Filthy Animals

      By rayzor · Posted

      Just had Thanksgiving meal with a couple dozen family and friends. I lucked out and got one of the smoked turkey legs. Stuffing, mashed taters and gravy, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, kale, smoked ham, chicken and rice, corn, lima beans, cranberry sauce, and great people. My brother got his guitar out and we got to singing. Lots of actual conversations with people I hardly  ever get to see, haven't seen in a while, or who I never met before. Just a great moment to remember.

      3-8 would be a higher win percentage than 3-9

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Same... With the personnel the Niners had, that defense could have been historically good in the right hands. Under Wilks they were certainly good, they didn't quite rise to that level. Honestly, I see Wilks kinda like I see Rivera: fantastic person, decent head coach. Skill wise, phenomenal DB coach, so-so DC. His greatest strength is his leadership. Hard to find many better in that department. In the Xs and Os / execution area though, not as good. Bottom Line: Wilks is the sort of coach that needs a staff that excels in those aspects of the game where he's weaker. But, like Rivera, I don't know that he scouts assistants very well. That as much as anything might be why he's not in the NFL now.
