Who was the better coach?

[Randolph Panther]

Who was the better coach, Rivera or Fox?  I would go with Rivera but not by much.

[rayzor]

Right now I've got no love for either.

Fox was stale. Rivera scared. Both results in lack of success.

The answer is Ron. That doesn’t say much but easily Ron.   

[ncfan]

Yikes tough one

Rivera has more talent.  Think Rivera is better, but his stubbornness to not fire Shula make him worse

[Anybodyhome]

Why not just ask what you really want?

Would you prefer dogshit over hyenashit? 

[Jon Snow]

Neither, it's a tie.  They both suck.

[PantherBrew]

I prefer Rivera by a lot.  

Which is more of an indictment of Fox. 

 

These other guys could have been our coach too. Woof. 

Quote

Rivera was one of four defensive coordinators to be interviewed by general manager Marty Hurney and team president Danny Morrison last week. The others -- Perry Fewell of the New York Giants, San Francisco's Greg Manusky and Rob Ryan of Cleveland -- were not asked in for second interviews.

Fox 3 playoff appearances, Super Bowl appearance. Super Bowl blown by botched kickoff,... no back to back playoffs, last playoff blowout blamed on quarterback but Arizona spoke of failures for us to adjust on offense and defense. Kept it vanilla.

Ron 3 playoff appearances, Super Bowl appearance. Super Bowl blown because of failure to adjust to opposing teams defense. 

That's tough,... good enough to motivate team to playoffs occasionally,... but screws the pooch and goes Marty Ball when it matters?

Elway hit the button because Fox couldn't get there with a top 5 HoF quarterback on his last season or 2 and star defense,..

Rivera,.... hummm we have no Elway at the helm,... what if Elway was here, would Rivera be?

I think to a large degree they are indentical. 

Rivera just has a Riverboat switch which takes a painful amount of time to hit.  Ron also is willing to embrace things Fox wouldn’t IMO.  

But their game management is nearly indentical until Riverboat is forced to come out

Both represent Charlotte by playing baseline/non aggressive. Not trying to offend anyone by its non culture of a passer by city 

[Malt Liquor]

They both stink. That's like asking what smells worst vomit or s h i t?
