Re: Ron Rivera Thread

No one has mentioned this, but what is going to happen to Bill Callahan?!

He’ll find a job somewhere , maybe Ron decides to keep as OL coach, that is if Callahan would be willing to go back to his old job.

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

For anyone interested in getting to know Riverboat Ron a little better, season 4 (Panthers) of All or Nothing is free on Amazon Prime.

I just started episode 3 and I like what I've seen so far.

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

Dan Snyder deserves some credit imo

- putting together a few people/team of outsiders early on this season to help him prepare to find a HC, with Bruce Allen getting zero input or participation. He was proactive and didnt wait until week 17 to being the process.

- Keeping it almost completely secret and not a media talking point. Only last week did we start to hear that Dan had gathered a team of outsiders to help him transition. This could have been a cloud of speculation and media hyperbole but it was kept under wraps with no leaks.

- Getting the no. 1 choice Ron Rivera when I assume he could have landed multiple jobs.

Obviously who knows how Rivera will pan out here but I like Snyder being proactive and keeping it silent.

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

If this team can get a legit Defense for once, I don't see why they cant compete for the East next yr.

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

We've been through this too many times for me to be fooled again. It's like an abusive relationship.

I don't blame you at all, I'm a little excited about this whole thing.. Not super pumped, but excited with some reservations. We need to acknowledge that Ron has shown that he can manage a team and win. Out of all head coach candidates this year, Ron is one of the top viable candidates and I believe it would be a win for Redskins if Ron becomes Redskins head coach.

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

Reports are that he may bring in Steve Wilkes as DC. Am i missing something, other than that they coached together for a couple years. Nothing about Wilkes resume is particularly impressive.

Agree on that, he did a great job the Super Bowl season but since then he hasn't been very good

no surprise...he's close with Wilkes and was elevated to assistant HC at one point with Riverboat. I think its a positive at this point to have someone to lean on in order to get the structure down within the team.
