Rivera's Monday Presser

[Happy Panther]

They don't pay Medlock millions.

$1.44M I call millions but I see why some wouldn't.

Still can't get over the "didn't kick because we didn't want to risk getting the kid's head all messed up."

By not kicking you are telling your kicker that you aren't good enough to hit a 50 yarder so we are going to just heave one up to the end zone instead. Does RR think that a lack of trust like that wouldn't "mess up the kid's head"?

Clueless!!

Rivera said he would have liked to have seen corners,safeties play tighter on Bears' game-winning drive, when Panthers stayed in soft zone.

o rly?

well why didn't it happen? whose fault is it?

[Proudiddy]

He throws players and his coordinators under the bus every week.

[Marguide]

So call a TO and tell them to adjust.

[BountyHunter]

It's obvoius now that RR doesn't think these guys are good enough to go head to head with another team and win. He has no confidence in them and, from what I've seen and heard, they have no confidence in him.

In his mind, the only way we can win is with "tricks and gimmicks".

[Proudiddy]

Fair warning b/c I don't think I put a lot about it in the thread, but he said they'll also look a the read option going forward and evaluate whether they should use more of it again.

LOL.

@Panthers It was awesome except for the fact that he didn't say "I quit."

Its not the HC's job to change that. You will have to talk to the janitor.

Andy Reid:

Well, listen, I take full responsibility for that performance right there...So however you write it or perceive it, that's my responsibility to make sure they play better than that. We didn't play well enough.

Compare and contrast

Compare and contrast

still don't want reid.

[Happy Panther]

still don't want reid.

Me neither. But it's a completely different mindset.

That's an unfortunate injury considering our pass rush was significantly worse when he sat down.

Yeah, he really got some good push up the middle that allowed CJ and Hardy to feast on Cutler.
