[quote=skinsfaninok;1296754]Ron is not good at getting QB's, Cam was a cant miss guy so he had no choice. Who else has he had? Look at the list and u will be disappointed

Other than Cam he's had..

Derek Anderson
Kyle Allen
Taylor Heineke
Will Grier

WOOF[/quote]

Ron had 3 winning seasons with Cam. Not exactly a stellar record.

But they went to the Super Bowl, more than any coaching staff this team has had in a long time.

Yeah people blow over the fact they went to a SB and went 15-1 like that is so easy. He also had a 12 win and 11 win season there, we haven't had more than 10 wins in a season since 1991.

Fact is we definitely out kicked our coverage in landing Rivera.

Re: Around the NFL week 7
 

[quote=Chief X_Phackter;1296760]Well to be fair, Derek Anderson, Kyle Allen, Taylor Heinicke, and Will Grier were all brought to Carolina to serve as #2 or #3 behind Cam. Neither was ever brought there to be "the guy". You can make the argument that they thought Grier might be their guy at some point, but there are hundreds of examples of Coaches and GMs taking a flier on a guy in the 3rd/4th round - and it doesn't work out.

Kyle Allen was brought in here as insurance for Dwayne Haskins - again the #2. Heinicke was brought in here in an emergency situation, played well in the playoffs, and earned himself a contract to be the - you guessed it - #2.

The one guy he ever brought in to be "the guy" was Cam. You can call Cam a can't miss guy, but history has proven that there really is no such thing.[/quote]

Can't argue any of this

I agree, landing Rivera was a major coup for the worst organization in pro sports.

Ron is a decent coach at best. He had one of the top QBs in the league and only managed 3 winning seasons when I bet people think he had 6 or 7 winning seasons. If anything Ron big time underachieved at Carolina.

15-1 was an awesome season, I don't know if we will ever see a 1 loss season in Wash

If he were to replicate his Carolina success here he'd be a hero... does his resume really look under an underachiever though?

76-63-1 record
4 playoff appearances
3 division titles
1 Super Bowl appearance

I want the team to go get Matt Ryan this off-season and then draft a guy mid round

No thanks. I'd rather go younger, and there are some intriguing younger options out there.

If they are going to reset, I honestly wouldn't mind making a move for Trubisky if the price is right, and then draft a QB. At least Trubisky has been to the playoffs a couple times in the last few years. The biggest knock on him is that he was drafted before Mahomes and Watson - and he hasn't had the success those guys have had.... There are a lot of [I]starting[/I] QBs in the league that can say that though.

I doubt they do that, Ron seems hell bent on that whole "we need to find our guy" stuff.. Whatever that means

In your dreams! Why the hell would Tennessee do that?

Case Keenum right down the field for 7. I swear we are the only team who never scores on the first drive.
