Ron Rivera likely gone with new owner

[SportsCrazie4172]

Interesting..

Go get Jim Harbaugh..

His scheme would work well with Cam Newton..

From ESPN

been a sense that Harbaugh, who was 44-19-1 with one Super Bowl appearance in four seasons as coach of the 49ers from 2011-14, would like to try the NFL again. Should he make himself available, he'd be very intriguing to more than one team.

Do we know how long this process is supposed to take? Should we expect a new owner by the time training camp rolls around?

I think I read it took the Bills sale 7 months.

Actually the smartest move a new owner could do is to trade Rivera for some compensation while he is worth something.

Unless they have changed the rules since this article: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/12/02/teams-can-still-trade-for-head-coaches/

I heard that you can't trade for HC from some people but that doesn't seem true.

Even if we went from "above avg" (just avg imo but w/e we'll give it that) HC to just avg HC but improved our OC from dead last in NFL history to even competent it would be a dramatic overall increase in the football team. Therefore worth it and you do it everyday twice on sunday, and all the other cliches.

Say what you want about Shula, but he runs laps around Jeff Davidson as an OC. You must be new around here...

Who’s Jim Harbaugh?

My guess is that Hurney will be fired after the Draft and the new GM will replace Rivera after next season (unless we make a playoff run).

Harbaugh + Cam = Super Bowl.

That would be the best possible outcome in this situation. He made Kaepernick look like Cam Newton. Imagine what he would do if he actually had Cam Newton?

[raleigh-panther]

My feeling, with Luke and cam in their primes, it is time to get the best coaches for them or the Panthers can forget about it and Rivera's penchant for loyalty over improvements and production is not acceptable 

There is no need to revisit Shula or Hurney or Wilks or anything else

this is a business  a performance business not a feel good business 

in the NFL it is constant revision to go forward and the Panthers have stay the course coaches

this team is very very fragile.  Luke, one concussion from being finished. I suggested we draft the lb from Georgia in another thread  and someone said with 'Luke that was absurd, no, it isn't.  The key position to the defense has issues with concussions prepare for it.  Luke was drafted to replace  Beason who was once untouchable

There is no way he would be able to know this unless he has inside knowledge on who the owner will be, which he doesn’t.

He was a quarterback in Carolina. His last professional pass was to Steve Smith. Whatever he did after that I'm not sure, kind of faded in obscurity. I think he was doing Pepsi commercials

LMAOOO.....Ron aint even in the same stratosphere as the hoodie in any coaching aspect. 

Yeah, but as a head coach, he's undefeated against Belichick.  Ha!

He's speculating, but yeah it's possible. I'd wager that Rivera is a lot more likely to stick around than Marty Hurney.

 

And rightfully so. I say new ownership brings in a GM and says stick with Rivera for atleast next year and then the GM can decide completely on his own what to do with the coaching staff. Whether it be get rid of Rivera and bring in his own coach or even force Rivera’s hand on bad assistants or if we have success next year keep them all in place. But the owner needs to establish a set hierarchy and the GM he hires should have total control over coaching staff.

That would be like buying a home that needs a few repairs and throwing out all the best stuff. Give me a break.
