[TylerVagyler]

Gettleman should fire him after listening to this haha

[SgtJoo]

David Newton @DNewtonespn

Rivera is focused on reviewing what the #Panthers did the last six games.

 

Steve Reed @SteveReedAP

Rivera reiterates that he doesn't expect changes to coaching staff, even on special teams where team was near bottom of league.

 

Michael Pacheco @MikePacheco81

Looking at last 6 games but also looking at why things happened first 12 games - not anticipating staff changes on special teams

 

Bobby Rosinski @BobbyRosinski

Ron Rivera defending special teams coach. I didn't notice it get better

 

David Newton @DNewtonespn

Rivera said he's heard from no other team outside the Jets interested in defensive coordinator Sean McDermott.

 

Mike Solarte @MikeSolarte

#Panthers RR is adamant that special teams play improved when players got healthy. 5 key ST guys were hurt after week 6...hampered ST

 

Michael Pacheco @MikePacheco81

RR - special teams were missing key personnel after week 4 and got better last 6 weeks as players returned

@jjones9: Rivera talking about how ST got better in final 6 games. Maybe it did, but issues persisted throughout season

Does he even watch the games? Honest question?

[Nick_81]

Am I reading into this, or does he sound nervous?

Seems like he is a bit nervous.  Like he's presenting his case... for something.  His answers to some of these questions aren't helping him very much.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Well he did say Cam needs to improve his footwork and other things. That he will be getting him help. 

[SgtJoo]

Steve Reed @SteveReedAP

Rivera said key contributors on special teams were out with injuries. Rivera wants certain players who play solely on special teams in '15.

 

Jonathan Jones @jjones9

Rivera said February is going to be a big month in terms of Panthers/Hardy. His court date is Feb. 9

 

Joe Person @josephperson

Rivera on Hardy: February's going to be a big month. You guys know how I feel about him.

 

Jonathan Jones @jjones9

Rivera talking about learning and growing as a coach. Refers to media calling him "Reluctant Ron" after first ATL game

 

Joe Person @josephperson

Rivera says he won't get into hypotheticals where Hardy is concerned, i.e. guilt or innocence.

 

Mike Solarte @MikeSolarte

Rivera is wrapped, Dave Gettleman coming in next.

 

[*FreeFua*]

Gettleman should fire him after listening to this haha

Takes a real idiot to talk themselves out of a job. Leave it up to Ron!

[89_Bottomline]

Ron, any news on McDermott?  

 

Ron - "Uhhh well really you have to look at the last 6 games..."

 

Dude seriously answered every question the same way.

[L-TownCat]

"We have to improve this teams Speed." (thumps table with fist)

 

 

I'm hoping you get a speedster in the draft and go after Randall Cobb. Or Denarius Moore, screw it. 

 

Not picking on you but it only took 15 minutes into our first offseason presser for the name Denarius Moore to pop up!  

 

New record!

[Nate Dogg]

Well he did say Cam needs to improve his footwork and other things. That he will be getting him help. 

 

lol he's willing to criticize our franchise qb, but thinks richard rodgers and shula are doing fantastic jobs.

[Mr. Scot]

he sounds like he is fighting for his job to the media

 

Seems like he is a bit nervous.  Like he's presenting his case... for something.  His answers to some of these questions aren't helping him very much.

 

Makes me wonder how that meeting with Gettleman went.

 

 

[*FreeFua*]

If Ron was so focused on what happened the last 6 games why did we get away from those things that made us successful against Seattle?

Fire this idiot

[Nate Dogg]

what time is gman?

[Nick_81]
