The only reason Rivera still has a job is because we don't have anyone to take over for the rest of the season.

Ask yourself if you were Mr. Richardson would you let anyone else on this coaching staff take over your team?

JR knows this so he's going to wait until the end of the season, hire a new gm and let him do away with Rivera.

It's true. As fans, our frustrations are getting the best of our emotions. RR's stupid stoic face has become the symbol we relate to the poo product on the field. Just like Foxy chewing gum and clapping after Jake threw a fifth interception, it's just our frustration spilling out as group mentality hatred. That being said, FIRE THAT STOIC POS!!!

I wanted Rivera before Fox was even gone.

Now it's clear that he just won't be a great head coach, without some major changes in himself. The Panthers can afford to wait that long.

Richardson doesn't like to fire a head coach mid season, which i normally agree with.

It wouldn't upset me to see him fired though.

You guys calling Rivera a "POS" and similar names need to get a life. I don't like the team's performance any more than the rest of you, and I agree that Ron should be fired at the end of the season absent some sort of miraculous turnaround. But Ron is a gentleman, has treated everyone in the organization--and I mean EVERYONE, top to bottom--with decency and respect, and has done nothing to bring shame on himself or the team. He may or may not be NFL head coach material--sometimes a different situation can be a new lease on life. But no one can deny that he's been a successful NFL coach, and that he's a good man who works his butt off and sincerely cares about his players. That won't be enough to save his job, but it ought to be enough to persuade you to take a respectful tone and understand that failure in business does not equate to moral or ethical lapse.

Listen here...don't tell me what to do...

I want a winner. We will respect someone who delivers a good product on the field. Until then...I will continue to use my current tone....who are you?

I agree with your overall statement about him being a good person, but he hasn't onced stood in front of the microphone and said hey I let this team down this loss is on me. He continuously deflects blame by screaming about execution. He needs to accept the blame the way our QB stood up and accepted blame even though we know he wasnt to blame

I couldn't agree more. People are getting so emotional about yesterday's loss that they can't see the big picture. This season is lost, putting an interim coach from this staff in place will do nothing for us. The best scenario is the same as the worst case scenario - which is that they start winning and potentially get Jerry to go cheap and back the interim coach as the new head coach next season. Half-ass rebuilding is part of the reason that we are where we are at this point (not getting rid of Hurney at the same time as Fox).

      It's a no-win situation. If you want to judge it on SOS, then just put five SEC teams in. If you want to do it by record, better add in something like Army, BYU, Indiana, Tulane, etc. The "it's a 12 team field now' excuse is nothing more than entertainment for the fans ... which is fine. My only gripe is that if a crap team wins one of the Power 4 (5) leagues, they should not get a bye or better seed.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      I don’t think we’ll ever see an elite QB like the top QBs out of Bryce. He just doesn’t have the size to do what Allen can do or the crazy skills of Mahomes off platform or Burrow, Lamar and the rest of the top QBs. I said it in another thread. The best hope we can have is an Alex Smith type that can win this crappy division and we can keep building up the team around him cheaply and then hopefully find our Super Bowl contending QB talent. We can’t be Daniel Jonesed in to paying Young a mint for what is a QB that would never go to the playoffs in a division with a top team but could win our poo division at 10-7.
