I was done with him after he ruined the NFC Divisional round against the 49ers with stupid penalties. Nope.

We got whooped by 49ers all game

Man if your patience isnt running thin with Rivera and this coaching staff i dont know what to tell you.

 

 

It's ridiculous man. This is what happens when a coach is somewhere too long with some success. They don't know how to adapt. They stick to the same philosophy they had since they first started as if the NFL doesn't change

Because he's really bad? He put up nice INT #s with the Chargers but there is a reason they didn't re-sign him.

No sir, we were in the game (for the most part) and dumb penalties from players losing their cool is what cost us. Mike Mitchell was apart of that, CJ, and Captain Munnerlyn (a frickin head butt).

We weren’t gonna win. Shula sucked

[Moo Daeng]

Considering we cut him I assume because they don't want him

[PhillyB]

uhh he is terrible. he would literally be a downgrade at the position and in a passing league a guy who's perpetually lost in space is the worst kind of liability.

why is this a thread 

[jdpanther5]

Boston, like Reid and Vaccaro, is an unrestricted free agent, and we're not touching any UFAs until May 10. Hurney said so himself. 

Sure there are guys like Ron Parker hanging around, but it'll be another week before they make a move on any non-street free agents.

I think there’s a lot exaggeration on how “bad” he is, solid player and very good depth of anything. Chargers probably would have resigned him after the draft if they didn’t land Derwin at 17, it’s the market not the player 

[JARROD]

I think its because Dave drafted him and not Hurney,... Dave was kind of doing that,... chunking Hurney guys and bringing his.  What goes around comes around.

Hurney is step by step getting Dave guys out except for the fan favorites like CMac,.... Funchess's days are numbered,..

Because of plays like this. He literally pulls up and stops to avoid contact.

Exactly the reason you need PASS rushers.

In a sense I agree...but the new DC is more DB oriented. But let's be honest, the Dline is MUCH more important especially with the best LBS in the league. The QBs in our division will get theirs, they won't be stopped. They won't be slowed by an elite secondary, but by an elite Dline.

What I took from the OPs quote is Boston simply doesn't play a position where he is going to make the money he probably wants on a team such as ours (and really, most the NFLs) who simply don't need to spend at his position IF the defense runs properly.

On a side note...I don't think Boston is really going to make that much of a difference on the Panthers to really care.

NO.....You need both. We have been on this ride the front 7 train for the last 7 years and what has it really achieved?  Our secondary still ranks dead to last every year, Better yet when has this team really had a pass rusher the last couple years? The number of the sacks dont tell the whole story as we have to blitz way more than we use too. Who are the pass rushers that are gonna make this team elite anyway? Our best pass rusher is almost 40 years old and plays limited snaps. Elite d lines dont do much good against qbs that can get the ball out quick anyway. In today's league d line and secondary go hand in hand, one compliments the other so only addressing one and ignoring the other is a failing approach. There is a reason why other teams snatch up as many quality DBs as possible every year,  the only ones that dont get it are Ron Rivera and this staff.
