Keep trying to avoid the trust factor Rivera employs that has taken these players out of starting roles.

Rivera hammers it and lets them know they lose trust with their play on the field. He does it so much that the players are repeating his words/talking points to reporters.

Gettleman keeps putting pressure on Rivera to play the players Gettleman brings in, but Rivera is not going to stick with them if they lose his and the starters trust. Gettleman can avoid making moves to strengthen the team in an effort to force Rivera's hand, but when they keep costing the team for the first few weeks, Gettleman will be getting the vets Rivera wants. Just a waste of the Panthers future with the way Gettleman leverages Rivera with the personnel. We see it time and time again.

This reminds me of that time when Coach Rivera said "I see myself as not only a football player, but also as an entertainer and an icon."

Shall we put these in context?

“The big thing that has to happen is [Ealy] has to be consistent, and he hasn’t been consistent yet. When he gets consistent, you’ll know he’s arrived. It’s two good ones, one bad one. Or two bad ones, two good ones. It’s got to be consistent,” Rivera said. - August 6, 2015, Rivera praises consistent practice

So here we're looking at a quote from last training camp before Kony's season and breakout Super Bowl performance.

Not a good start, but it gets worse.

Despite that strong finish, Rivera had said Ealy was too inconsistent -- particularly against the run -- to be the every-down end he was looking for to replace Greg Hardy. - August 30, 2015, Kony Ealy has earned starting job

This one is not only from last year, but it's actually talking about the previous year.  From the same article:
 

Heh :)

Moving on...

"I told [Benwikere], 'Well, you’re looking pretty rusty,'" Rivera said. "He knows, and he’s just going to keep working, hopefully work himself back into it."  - August 3, 2016, Benwikere returns to practice

Oh look, finally a quote from this year, but it's about his first practice back from injury and does nothing to show that Rivera has, or has long held, trust issues. The article also says this:

Basically, they're looking for his best fit as a starter.  Trust issue?  Yeah, sure.

Oh, but it hasn't gotten really fun yet.

First, there's this...

"We’ve just got to get the young guys acclimated to the standard that we’ve set around here and get the trust part down." - Ron Rivera

That's the most recent quote, coming August 11th, only Ron Rivera didn't say it.  Cam Newton did.  You can can see it in context here: Recap: Ravens 22, Panthers 19

Likewise, this first quote...

"When they can trust that you know what you’re doing, they are going to give you more chances."

Also not Ron Rivera.  It's from Scott Simonson, talking about himself.  See it here: Simonson making a strong push for a roster spot

See, we historians tend to like things in context, and preferably attributed to the people who actually said them.

So once again, you're shown to be a phony with no credibility.

Ouch.....Scott just took CP behind the woodshed...kicked his dog...stole his girlfriend and lunch money....and left him for dead.

You should know better than that. Cam did not even know Rivera at that time. No way he would be reiterating the Rivera company line to the media prior to him even being a Panther. Now this is just silly. You are good at silly. Keep spinning.

Point remains that Rivera emphasizes trust from his starters/players. They will have their snaps cut down or replaced by players like Jared Allen when they can not get the job done. We all know Ealy did not show up until the SB last season. Even then he had a limited role. He needs to be consistent and stop screwing up leading to Rivera having to replace him in the season.

I didn't believe your responses in this thread could get any dumber. Clearly, they can.

You have zero credibility, dude. None. Nada. Zip. Keep bleating all you want, but everybody knows you're a phony so nobody's listening. At this point, it's just boring.

Are you really stupid enough to think you could get away with pretending to have inside access on a forum owned by a guy who actually does?

It would appear from his response that he doesn't realize this line was a slam.

No, don't shoo him away... it's entertaining! Like a fat kid trying to fit into a dollhouse... sad, yet amusing.
