Ron’s pride was his downfall. He has learned nothing from this. He just blamed injuries for his firing.

The main thing to take away from this is that Rivera said that our issues did not happen until our quarterback got hurt. Is he wrong??

Yeah, I'm over this dude.  He just can't take responsibility without a caveat.  He truly thinks he's done everything correctly.  I can't work with that.  You have to know your weaknesses and be open to change.  He was not.  At All.  

Godspeed Ron.  This will follow him to his next job too.

 The QB situation has nothing to do with how bad the defense has played. 
 

Also, the Steelers have done well without their QB. That’s what a good coaching staff can do.

Good coaches overcome. You have to look at games individually. We either got assblasted by 2 win teams or we had a chance to win or go to overtime and we blew it. There was so much inconsistency that didn’t make sense. We had talent to overcome a franchise qb going down to not lose to extremely bad teams.
 

Then add to the fact that defense is his strong suit and it has gotten progressively worse since the 2015 season. Players were not put into positions to succeed, and Ron is completely adverse to changing. He even said as much in his presser “I believe I do things the right way to win in this league” uh no you don’t Ron.

A good mobile QB can also cover coaching flaws.

    • If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait. 
    • I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football. 
    • Maybe a move to the SEC forces UNC to be more serious about football?   I mean we should be making noise in the weak ACC and we can't even do that. How is Duke better than UNC in football right now? It's honestly sad and pathetic.   It doesn't matter if we get another great QB as you said a QB doesn't mean you have a great roster. A QB can only do so much. We lack elite guys in the trenches. That's how you build a program. It starts up front.
