No job security in Carolina?

Two things:

1) If they come in and do their job, there won't be any concern about security.

And

2) Even if ( say Wisenhunt) comes in and has mild success and the team still fails to make the playoffs, whose to say that Gettleman won't look at Wisenhunt as Rivera's replacement.

Why come to a place that is expecting a lot right out the gate and if you fall short- there is a good possibility you will be looking for work again next year?

That's a very short-sighted way to look at it. All of those mentioned, minus Toub, have had head coaching experience in the NFL. Hell, Toub has interviewed multiple times for a head coaching gig himself. With Rivera on the hot seat, each of those coaches know that they would have a chance to step into that role next year, assuming they perform well.

I'm not saying they would coach to get a head coaching job (like Chud reportedly did) or if they would sabotage to get the chance to be a coach (like some think Garrett did in Dallas), but they know that if the players grow found of them, their offense works out well, Cam and Smitty both seem to like them, and Rivera still has trouble managing a game from a coaching perspective, there would be a chance to step into that role and be the coach.

Unless a coordinator can't find a job elsewhere, he isn't coming to Carolina IMO. I agree, why should he? Why would anybody want to sign on as a coach with a staff that is tinkering on collapse?

I'm willing to bet that we sign from within and find even lower people outside to fill those other positions.

This is the Rivera system we are playing with, so it makes sense to keep it that way with Rivera's guys.

I bet the new GM is frustrated, not being able to run his show but he knew this when he signed on. Richardson wants to get his money out of Rivera, at the expensive of everybody else's future.

Coaches have egos. They'd take the job just to prove that they can do it.

Love the negative crop around here.

Never gets old.

unfortunately, good call.

Not only is Rivera on the hot seat we are in salary cap hell meaning we are stuck letting guys go and not signing any to replace except in the draft.
