Ryan wanted the job so much he was in tears when he found out he wasn't the choice. Huh? I never heard anything like that. What I remember is, we thought we had him, but at the last minute he turned us down, and took the job at somewhere like Miami? Anyway, it's all good....just water over the dam, now --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papachaz Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 why not just hire Marion Campbell again? I mean 'third times a charm' right? what? he's dead? like the way this team's played this year? he'd fit right in NO to Rivera as anything other than DC. We need an OFFENSIVE minded coach, PERIOD FalconJim, Iron Saint and Plunket76 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've both went to the super bowl and list. At least Quinn can say he almost won it. Panthers wasn't even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Saint Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 LMAO, yeah if y’all never want back-to-back winning seasons please hire Rivera. We’d love nothing more. 11 hours ago, marvinthemartian said: Then maybe get the OC from the Saints to be our OC/ASST HC. Weaken two of our opponents and strengthen ourselves. Yeah, you can put down your crackpipe because y’all aren’t getting Carmichael. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3onD3on Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Ron Rivera for DC sure. Not for head coach. We need an offensive mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

federicofalcon2 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I'm sure he has the ability to improve this team possibly with his defense knowledge, but isn't this the same guy whose defense gave up 300 yards to Julio and 500 to Ryan in the same game?

Carolina's defense is ranked 22nd overall. Atlanta is 23rd. Carolina's defense is 14th against the pass. Atlanta is 26th. Carolina's defense has given up 43 pass plays of 20+ yards Atlanta has given up 45. Carolina's defense is 29th against the run. Atlanta is 17th. Carolina's defense has given up 18 rushing plays of 20+ yards. Atlanta has given up 10. It's seriously a wash. Can we compare multiple years? One year can always be an anomaly or just a bad year in general. Nobody's perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really not sure why you all think this dude is something special. Maybe he'd be serviceable as a DC, but absolutely not as HC. This I agree with. Bring him on as our DC and I would be satisfied.

How good is he really and how much is it Payton? He’s a really good coach but he has the personality of a wet paper box. He’s not exactly the kind of guy to be fulfilling the rigorous media obligations being a HC entails, which is why I think he’s been passed over when he’s interviewed for HC vacancies in the past. He comes off as the kind of guy that is more than content with doing his work behind the curtain and let others soak up the limelight, not that type-A personality you want to see in a head coach. There are segments of his career here where he was calling the plays and he did very well, but ultimately Payton calls them most of the time. marvinthemartian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCFalconfan Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Why would we want a coach that we routinely beat like drum? Rivera couldn't even string back to back winning seasons. Carolina's best years under Rivera came where they ran a gimmick offense that basically got their QB killed. No thanks to Ron coming to Atlanta. k-train 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCFalconfan Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Also, Carolina's defense hasn't been the same since Sean McDermott took the Buffalo job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
