Just a reminder for folks looking for a quick exit for Rivera: The Steelers way is to keep a coach long-term and allow him to develop and redevelop teams over the years. They are only on their third coach since 1969. 

The Steelers do have winning ways and patience is one of their cornerstones.

JR would be happy with mediocrity b/c his cheap conservative ass didn't want to pay playoff bonuses. Don't forget, he just likes to let contracts run out rather than firing someone. He don't wanna pay something for nothing. I still think Hurney goes first. I don't see him letting Rivera go. Who the hell else would we get?

They also haven't won a super bowl in ten years. And rely too long on veterans.

Above all else, Tepper does not strike me as a guy happy with mediocrity. Something JR seemed happy with at times.

I suspect if this is not a winning season, whooo buddy. Seats will be on fire.

 

If this isn't a winning season (at least two playoff victories) I'll expect more than hot seats as a result.

I'll expect to see entirely new butts in those seats.

Something else to consider, though...

You remember that movement by Steelers minority owners to get Mike Tomlin fired? 

Guess who was part of it?

Just sayin', if Mike Tomlin's record isn't good enough, how does Ron Rivera's stack up?

I apply that only to this season. You can't change coaches in July.

I suspect that people who were overpromoted for ass kissing are probably pretty nervous right now.

It's hard to imagine Tepper allowing anyone with subpar job performance to keep their job.

Yep i bet he would never say a punt isn’t a bad play

We know he was a minority owner of the Steelers but that doesn't mean he will run the Panthers that way. Hell JR didn't really do it the Steelers way either. He just gave them lip service.

    • Yes. Arm strength is a problem too, but his biggest problems are decision making and accuracy. 
    • His work ethic may be a question mark, but I question his ethics in general. The way that he weighed in at the combine and the left immediately while everyone else was throwing. He knew he was conning someone 
    • When did I say top 3 picks? Talking about starters who were unsuccessful or sent packing from one team to find more success on another--- Goff? Carr? Geno Smith?  Darnold? Baker?  --heck, if you take those QBs alone (5) you are talking about over 15% of the league.  But you are looking at performance and I am looking at skill set and fit.  What you did not mention is the bust rate for the rookie qbs who are drafted.  Why is that?  Fit and, in my view, opportunity to develop. I know that it is easy to say, "I saw this on TV"  or "but he has only been good for a short amount of time"  well, this process is not a lifetime achievement award.  Darnold was here for a half season--did he ever show the success he did here as he has in Minnesota?  Nope.  So what is the difference?  FIT.  My point?  If Jones is a top 7 QB over the past 3 years when throwing from a clean pocket and here, we will have a top running back room (Hubbard and Brooks), a good young WR room, a good young developing TE, and a veteran, top 5 offensive line--those are the conditions that would make him throw from clean pockets.  That is all I am saying--did I give him a gold jacket?  I said it was risky.  So is drafting a QB.  I also mentioned other ways our team could improve. But you decide to put words in my mouth and then argue against those words.  Brilliant.
