Time to clean house. We may (or may not be) at the precipice of a rebuild. Lots of retirements this offseason, Cam may be breaking down, Ron can't put together back-to-back winning seasons, and Hurney gonna Hurney. I'd like to see what Tepper can do with his own personnel hires. 

FWIW, I think Ron's a great person, he just isn't going to get us to the promised land.  

This is the mentality that's kept him here so long. People that work in your office building or pave your streets or serve you food are great people too that get paid less than 1% of what Rivera is making...many of them are great people too, yet they get fired all the time and nobody cares. Rivera and his family will be okay. How good of a person you are should have very little correlation as to whether or not you're employed as an NFL head coach. (And I know you're saying he should be fired too, but this is still a point I want to emphasize.)

He's had to deal with Cam taking snaps through his entire tenure at Carolina.  Let's see how he does with another starting QB. 

I know, poor Ron had to get carried to four playoff appearances by an MVP quarterback

Oh wait he's a POC, so you don't like him

Don't expect a head coaching change. Further shuffling on the defensive staff, yes, but Rivera, from what I've heard, will be spared (barring a complete and utter embarrassment over the final 2 weeks).

I don't profess to have ever been an insider, but I am acquainted with someone who can be considered a pretty good source these days.

I think you should go back and look at the stats from the previous Carolina quarterbacks and get back to this thread. Feel free to go as far back as you like.

Can't wait for him to be the coach of the 4-11 Arizona Cardinals at this time next year

Rivera- 70-55-1
Cam - 17 GW drives in the 4th quarter
Rivera without Cam in those games - 53 - 72 - 1

Ian Rapoport was reporting that Ron's job was in jeopardy a few weeks ago and that report has been followed up by nothing but losses. I find it hard to believe that the way to stave off a firing is to...lose out.

I myself find it hard to believe that losing 8 straight games wouldn't lead to massive changes, and if 8 straight losses is the case it very well could lead to a change, but I'm just putting out what I heard as of yesterday.

Anybody that thinks Hurney and Rivera will be back next season knows nothing about the mentality of someone like David Tepper. A former newspaper reporter and a guy that still doesn't know when to use timeouts in Year 8 aren't the GM and coach for someone worth $8 billion that just spent $2.3 billion buying this team. They're gone and they were gone before this season started.

 

[Gucceland]

If the Panthers win out with a backup QB...I don't think they get fired.  If they win ATL and lose Saints...I don't think they get fired.  If they lose to ATL and win Saints....they will get fired.  If they lose both games....they will get fired during the final press conference.

The Colts might not make the playoffs, and the Packers are already out of the playoffs, so I'm not really seeing your point. 

Point is 

Half you guys would be cutting 

1. Rodgers after his subpar season, despite playing injured.  Yall would for fact cut him being injured this year and out last year with injury

2. Colts are a real possibility for a playoff spot.  Playing in a division where the Texans are getting a #2 seed.  At 8-6 they are in a 3 way tie for that wildcard spot with Tennessee and Baltimore.   But.............if yall were GM, they wouldn't be in this position as you wouldve cut Luck 2 years ago.

but..but...we are ready to win! All the people defending Cam as the best QB we have ever had...will they defend RR as the best coach we have ever had? Both are the best we have ever had. 

But...we are ready to win! Tepper is swinging a big dick and we are gonna be a new team~~~

THAT is the bullshit too many let themselves believe. It keeps Igo taking pictures of hot ( well, its carolina hot I guess) women, and running the premier website of homers that post 15 times per day and poo on others that arent as dedicated of a homer as themselves. 

RR is the best coach we have ever had. That doesnt mean we cant do better. Same with Cam. Cam being here DOES NOT mean we cant to better!
