Rivera in midseason form already. Playing not to lose, bad special teams play, defense lets up for game winning score, loss. Typical Rivera/Panthers football lol

Its like being stuck in a perpetual loop of brain-damage.

Pre-season or in-season, Ron Rivera will always be Ron Rivera.

"Riverboat" Ron only appears when he sees that big head coaching pay check being threatened.

I'm so ready for a new coach... But no, Rivera gets to serve under 3 different GMs

[Hoenheim]

Well, its just the pre season. I think the loss may do some good and make the staff more cut throat and decisive in roster choices. especially towards Gano and the backup secondary members.

Whole lot of players on that field that have received or are about to receive their last paycheck from the panthers

Most of them have already been severely overpaid.

Coach needs to see you in his office.  Bring your playbook.

It's a meaningless pre season game with a bunch of 3rd and 4th stringers on the field dude. It's not a big deal.

not saying it is a big deal. just pointing out the similarities with this team being too conservative no matter who the HC is, and no matter the game

As I said before "Well, the guys that aren't gonna make your team beat the guys that ain't gonna make ours".

Have a beer.. We'll need plenty if Rivera goes 8-8 and sticks around

[steveSmokin_D]

i think its a long season incoming.

Missed the middle of the game but Gano missed another field goal that was the difference in the game? Hopefully they stash Butkner on the PS to at least have Gano looking over his shoulder. It's a poor way to lose a game but the majority of that 3rd string defense should be cut.

This staff? Learning from their mistakes and making adjustments to correct it? Not a chance...
