Well they will definitely need scapegoats...Rivera will have to throw someone into the fire 

Voth also reported that Shula lobbied that teams would catch up to what they did last year and wanted the organization to provide talent for him to switch things up this year (he lobbied for the 2nd rec TE tonbe added so he can run legit 2 TE sets but our FO made no moves to improve either side of our team for 2016

instead we added a DT and tore our secondary apart 

offense isn't broken...our OL is broke.  Better OCs than Shula can't actually fix what we are forced to use of late

Im sure the Assistant to the Assistant of the equipment staff will be let go as the main culprit to this bad season.  That will definitely right the ship for next year.  Shula will stay in place as a 'great asset' to Rivera.

Funny how the roster is able to score in the first half but unable to score in the second half.

 

well, football coaches are suppose to get leads and then play in a manner to keep leads.

Panthers don't have the talent to do such.

Carolina gets a lead and either attempts to play with a lead (offensive talent can't) or is then forced to continue to play high risk football (which can lead to easy opportunities for an opponent)

Carolina's D is largely responsibile for our bad start and we have now won 3 of the last 4.  So our current record simply is more of a result of the defense.... but that type thought ain't popular.  Team will need a scapegoat and giving a fanbase what they want is the easy and obvious option for them.  

They sacrifice Shula and the fans will gloss over the FO disaster that put us in the hole to begin with and failed to improve the overall team.

I am absolutely just about the last guy to stick up for Shula. But his second half antics aside, he wasn't tasked with assessing our offensive tackle situation in the offseason, only to declare that we're good after watching Newton get harassed for most of the Super Bowl. Only to watch it again, and again, and again since.

I will not forgive our FO for the 2016 offseason. It's put up or shut up next year as far as I'm concerned.

But I have long endorsed the notion Ron would scapegoat coaches....once we are out of it

Dave ain't gonna take it on the chin (and he IMO remains the most responsible for the drop from 2015)....so he will look to Ron to explain it

but Shula is like reason #3 we are not good and removing him doesn't change the other more impactful reasons for the drop off

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.

      Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
