It was less about that thread and more my comment being a sarcastic reply to all those saying we should be nice and let the dynamic duo finish the season while the other Jerry is already working on candidates. 

Oh, I gotcha. Just thought that would be a good idea anyway

So what you're saying is that an owner can start looking for new coaches prior to the end of the season?!

I thought we had to fire Rivera so we could start looking...

Define "looking".

As I understand the rules, you can looky, just no talky.

You can talk plenty, just not formally.

So Rivera is not worried because he knows he is not losing his job, or he is saying he is not worried if he loses his job. Please tell me we don't have another Jerry Richardson!

I have little doubt that David Tepper and Kevin Colbert talk from time to time. But I'm certain there are never any... improper... discussions between them.

 

 

I also believe that Santa Claus is real, famous people are smart and politicians tell the truth.

Hes tiny and they keep throwing him at guards and centers.

Burns would be Defensive Rookie of the Year in SF's defense.

I shared this comment from the Charlotte observer in another post.  It’s appropriate here as well for this historically bad run defense

quote

There was a lot of talk by Rivera and the Panthers after the game about “trying hard” and “having chances.” But when a team comes into the game having almost no success running the ball all season and then puts up historic numbers on a defense, there are bigger issues. It’s one thing to give up this much on the ground in a ugly loss on the road. It’s another to surrender this way at home to a two-win team that features one of the league’s worst offenses.

I think what you mean is if a GM who knew what he was doing drafted him to fit within a scheme developed by the HC who in turn would give said player the opportunities needed to showcase his remarkable skillset he would be DROY and maybe more?  The kid is good.  I didn't mean to sound down on him.

We tried really hard. That's what you say to children Ron.

Correct.

If I gave the impression that I took your comment as being "down" on Burns, I apologize.  My follow-up to your comment was intended more as additional information than critique.
