Rivera on the timeouts: "This is a young football team that I have to protect"

It was a good interview but there was a disconnect. RR talked about how they were in 1st place and reflected on the 2014 or so season when the Panthers were like 3-8 but won the division at 7-8-1. And how this season is very much in play and he doesnt want to leave money on the table ...

but then says he says he has to protect the team by not calling TOS when down by 2 scores?

I dont quite understand who you are protecting or how not calling TOs protect anyone.

It doesn't add up, the injury thing is just an excuse and a poor one at that. If he's truly concerned about injuries why not take a few knees and go into the half vs continuing to run plays like the one where Gibson fumbled right before the half.

My only thought is that he is nowhere close to feeling comfortable with where our 2 min offense is. I imagine with the shortened training camp, new coaches and so much new stuff to cover/install .. that there just was very little time to go over the 2 min drill.

He doesnt trust our offense and Haskins in a 2 min drill and doesnt want to see sacks or ints get added at the end of the game.

Just guessing ... bc it is odd.

Which is funny because when the offense is sped up is when Haskins doesn't play like a wet fart in church

Exactly. He plays like a dry fart in church and that is definitely less obnoxious.
Seriously though there is a little sign of “we might have something here” when he does. Little sign, but it’s evident that those brief flashes are during hurry up. At least this year. I forget about last.
