Per Jay Glazer: Rivera to become Panthers HC

[Lumps]

yea I don't really care bout rivera, he's a qualified dc success blah blah can we please get an OC with some freakin balls already.

[Mr. Scot]

probably switching to a 3-4. I wonder if Charles Johnson can put on about 20 lbs of muscle and get up to about 290. same with Hardy

Highly unlikely.

Most of Rivera's experience is in the 4-3, and our personnel fit better for that system.

It's funny that the OC hire will get way more scrutiny than the HC hire

. Its funny to me, it seems like no matter what we go into the off season believing its the opposite that usually bites us in the ass. When we worry about offense the defense sucks, when we worry about defense the offense sucks.

How is this better than John Fox?

Probably because its not John Fox.

I think its strange that the FO is locked into hiring a DC. Capers had 1 good year, Seifert stunk, and most of you think John Fox was terrible (although i don't)

So why not even interview Gruden, Harbaugh, green etc. For the cost of a plane ticket and a room at the Ritz you could at least cross them off the list for sure.

[Sam Mills Fan]

I support Ron Rivera 100%. He was easily the best of the 4 candidates.

[Urrymonster]

The simple fact that he has done well in two very different schemes makes me like him. That shows he actually can adapt, something we haven't had for a very very long time.

[Lumps]

yes yes but does he chew gum?

This is great news im pump for the new season now

[bleys]

If Jay Glazer is reporting it, I believe it.

this.

[Happy Panther]

Probably because its not John Fox.

good analysis

[monstercat]

Honestly, I don't really care that much about where his defense was ranked or whether he ran a 4-3 or a 3-4. The question is...can he lead and motivate an entire team and what assistant coaches will he surround himself with. In fact, is JR even gonna let him hire his guys or is he gonna hand pick the OC and QB coach he wants?

I'm so excited for this Season!
