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

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.

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

He would be a hero here but the bar is really low here.

Since Ron was so successful in Carolina maybe we should cut him some slack here. If it took him 3 season with one of the best QBs in the NFL to have a winning season there he's got no chance here. Maybe if he gets a top QB this offseason we can start the 3 year clock.

6 out of 9 seasons were losing seasons, and he was 3-5 in the postseason. Snuck in with a 7-8-1 record one year. So one of those division titles was like ours last year. Basically besides that year where Superman was his quarterback and he had a stacked team he won one playoff game in 8 years.

Better than what we have had here yes. But that standard is pretty damn low.

He had a very solid team for years and won 3 playoff games? I don’t know if I would call that successful or under achieving to tell u the truth. And with this roster he has absolutely no chance.
