Would it have made a huge difference if you have a predictable offensive coordinator who gets to cute of running college plays instead of running nfl plays that helps them move the ball?

Did their former left guard in T Wharlton torn his acl with the Bengals? Also was due $8 million this year? He wasn’t worth that contract to keep.

When your oc can’t adjust to what opposing defenses are throwing at you, you’re going nowhere.

This team needs to be sold and moved to LA!

This has nothing to do with Cam needing to “grow up” it has to do with a GM that has been terrible at his job for years and years.

Why can’t any of you differentiate this move from Cam Newton’s play? Have you even seen the contracts Hurney has given out? Have you seen the drafts this guy has had recently?

A lot of you just hate Cam that’s all there is to it. People just can’t wait to jump all over him. He’s going to bounce back and right the ship but this team he’s on isn’t very good.

This coaching staff misuses their players every single game. Cam was more successful last year when they were not running this college spread offense crap.

I see nothing wrong with what Cam N said, heck the media has no problem with it. How can you develop a qb by playing shotgun 75-80% of the time? How about line him up under center?

Using the read option as a base offense 20-25% on running plays? No qb under that scheme will ever develop into a pocket passer.

Ron R and co are poor coaches who lacks clock management, in game adjustments, fundamentals etc. He still has no identity after 23 games.

I watched his after game interview and he threw everyone on the team under the bus.

No way this kid will ever take that team any place.

There are two key problems with this panthers team.

The first, is a lack of talent in crucial areas. Oodles of money has been invested into positions with low positional value, while offensive targets and defensive backfield players are ignored.

The second is a misuse of the players on the team the coaching staff, and the players lack of faith on their coaches has started to show from a VARIETY of players.

This move alleviates at least one of those problems, and getting a GM who is on the same page with his coaching staff may help remedy the second to an extent.

In the end though, Rivera is going to have to abandon his college bullcrap offense and run something more conventional as we did last year, when Cam threw for over 4000 yards.

That, in and of itself, is a fireable offense.

so fire him twice? Still this is Chico’s second year – you’ve got to give him at least one more year… if they start 1-5 next year, by all means…

Observational note to Panthers fans: When the leader of your team and 1st overall pick in the draft starts sounding like a kid who lost a pee wee league game during his post game press conferance, firing the guy who picked him is a step in the right direction.

Pretty soon even the coaches get tired of hearing it, especially when your losing.
