Dearest Ron Rivera,

[Snake]

If Rivera wants to prove he can coach we need to win this one. He needs to prove he can beat a legit coach.

[Matthias]

I hope we beat the socks off Peyton and his Broncos. Yet, I don't like looking at our offense. I'll handle Rivera staying, as not to break up our defense, and really keeping this core together. (I know another coach will probably get rid of players that are decent) Yet Chud has got to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

David Shaw would be the perfect replacement.

[Mr. Scot]

Like I said in the other thread, few coaches have defended Peyton Manning as well as Ron Rivera did in San Diego.

The operative question is whether he can duplicate that feat in Carolina.

How bad is it when you have concerns that your team will get out-coached by the other teams QB........much less the other teams HC.....

With Peyton, that's not unusual at all.

He really is that good.

Dear Ron,

If I were to circle one game the rest of the season that would piss off Big Cat more than any other to lose, it would be this week at home against John Fox.

Considering the strained relationship between these two during Fox's final year here, I think it is safe to say this is a must win game for you personally.

If you win, you just might buy yourself another year with more improvement this season.

If you lose, don't unpack anything else. Its a waste of energy.

Love,

Zod

We where beating both the Bears and Falcons until the very end and both times playing on their home turf. Does anyone really think the Broncos are better than the Falcons or Bears?

[cultclassiccat]

So proud of our team. Its likely Ron could win back the locker room and we can make a run. Not ready to give up on him if we dont though. His drafting has me wanting more.

Were pissed, i can see it now. Our players are carrying themselves and acting differently. Our defense is exactly what I thought, top ten. We are not playing dirty out there, we are just knocking the poo out them.

I love our rookies.
