Im not defending Rivera or JR i just dont think being cheap is the reason we have made terrible decisions, if this guy was so cheap why would he give away 10 million to UNCC

 

To get his name on the stadium, and give back to Charlotte after he asked them for money to put in escalators.

 

Allowing Fox to have a lame duck season is cheap, there's no number, pie chart, or quote you can post that says otherwise....

Losing NFC Championship games on the reg

 

This is and will always be terrible logic.  How often do we even MAKE the playoffs?  How many back to back playoff years?  Hardly ever, and zero on the second.

 

I wanted Andy Reid.  Too many people are buying into the "hate Reid" hype because he coached in the worst place in the universe to coach with the worst spoiled fans.  Not only did they treat Reid like crap, but McNabb also.  Andy Reid probably would have came here, and in a small market, he'd be a great coach.  But we don't touch offensive coaches and would sure as hell not pay for someone that is a proven guy that takes his teams to the playoffs.  Reid could do a lot of great things with Cam.

 

For the record, I would take a coach that gets us to the playoffs and NFC championship games more often than not over only making the playoffs like 3 times over the last decade and one super bowl run.  Getting to the playoffs at least gets you a chance.

I agree with you, my comment was more aimed at a knock on Eagles fans

I like Reid a lot as a coach, however Alex Smith is better suited for that O than Cam.

 

This isn't a knock on Cam by the way.

Always torn on the JR bashing because I love his loyalty to Charlotte but hate his football meddling. There's a good chance the Panthers would not still be here if it were any other owner and I still fear for the franchise's fate once he's gone. And obviously his UNCC contribution is just icing on the cake. I'll always respect him for his commitment to this city.

 

That said if Rivera makes it past the bye I'm deeply concerned about his footballing.
