In a worst-case scenario, is Rivera safe?

Yea JR doesn't value winning he just needs a star or two to sell some biscuits. He basically cried when he had to fire Hurney the first time so he'll be here until JR is gone, same with Hurney. We know Hurney has less manhood than Rivera so he'll never fire him or even try to.

You can also see the random IR poo going on. With GMan you didn't see this now that Hurney is back he still thinks he's smart or something doing the IR game. It'd be funny if it wasn't sad. Wonder how bad he'll get fleeced in the draft this year, his KB trade fulfilled his lifetime quota of competency.

Too many built in excuses. Part of the reason Hurney is so IR happy.

 

I don't expect any coaching changes this offseason except possibly Wilks leaving. 

I doubt Wilks goes anywhere.  His defense is struggling against better competition.  That is not going to get him a job.  He may get interviews to satisfy the Rooney rule but he's not getting a HC job yet.

As a main fan of this team, how do you get excited for games with this awful Coaching Staff and GM?  I just can't do it anymore.

All of you that think JR is happy with mediocrity need to look back to the Fox era.  Fox got nine seasons here, and was basically fired after year eight but had to work out his contract.  In those eight years he had three winning records and two years when we went 8-8.

Rivera is in his seventh year now.  He's had two winning seasons and this would be his third.  He's arguably had a lot more talent to work with as well.

Why will JR be more patient with Rivera than he was with Fox?

Imagine getting beaten by Minnesota and Green Bay at home, and then dropping the final game to the Falcons.  If this team finishes 9-7, do you think that Rivera will be back?  

easily.

they aren't going to fire a 2 time COY because of a 9-7 season.  Rivera isn't great.  But are we sure we could bring in better? 

Saints loss to me I put more on player execution than coaching.

Saying he will be back or not depends on what happens and how we lose or win. If we look horrible and the team quits on Ron then he could be and should be in trouble. But if for example Cam gets hurt and we don't do well or we play well and get beat by a clearly better team effort then to say he should go or not isn't as clear cut. That is why we need to not make knee jerk reactions or use sky is falling logic. We are 8-4 and these threads would suggest we are more like 4-8.

      Draft expectations vs reality

      Your thoughts? I don't think the trade up or even down value system stays exactly in place this year. Look at all the bad trades that hurt teams that give away too much (49ers for Lance, even us w/the Bears set us back). What trade up except Mahomes/KC was it really a great trade for the team giving up a lot? Same with trading down. Teams will know you don't want to pick and they won't be giving the store to move up because there is not a generational talent to do that for. Now, I believe these possibilities.  The Giants probably won't take QB-Sanders at 3, it's too much pressure if it doesn't work. They don't really need another edge rusher with Carter. I can see them possibly saving face, trade down to even the Panthers at 8 but not asking for a kings ransom. A 1st round swap, a 3rd and 4th and maybe next years 2nd and 4th could be enough without giving up too much. The Giants save in pay and in public opinion and then they can take Sanders or even another QB. For the Panthers to drop down, it has to mean their top 3 picks are not there. Do they take TE-Warren if he drops in their lap at 8 (I do like that)? I believe they would love to drop back but again I don't think teams will pay a lot to move up unless they want a QB before the Saints (our only hope for a good value).  I'm not picking a player, just thinking of the draft in general and value. Reaching doesn't work and more and more teams are realizing that.

      With the new DL, we should be better at edge by simple addition.   What player would have the biggest impact on the Panthers?  I still see the plan to trade back and take Emmanwori if we can find a trade partner.  Why, you ask?  S is a huge need and they have really only looked at 1 visits/meetings.  We will try to trade up for Princely in the second.  A WR in the third  (Bech or Noel).
