Like someone else said, who would take over? Chud would just run the read option every single down. I can't really say anything bad about McDermott, except his passiveness at the end of games, because the defense has actually been the bright spot this year. Who would've thunk it?! Rivera won't be let go until the new GM is hired and it will be his call. Just my little old opinion. Hoping for 3-1/2 quarters of competitive football, so we can hold onto a top 5 pick!Swizzle52noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-73791514449593319092012-11-20T13:51:03.711-05:002012-11-20T13:51:03.711-05:00Jerry Richardson doesn't care 1 bit about us f...Jerry Richardson doesn't care 1 bit about us fans.

Jerry Richardson's job is to write the checks. The Panthers are one of the highest paid teams in the league. Therefore, Jerry Richardson has done his part. The problem he had was his loyalty to Marty Hurney. Hurney is the guy that ran this franchise into the ground by over-paying players like Jake Delhomme after his 6 turnover performance in the playoffs, letting Peppers walk without compensation, trading 1st round picks for duds like Otah & Everette Brown. Trading a 2nd round pick for Armanti Edwards. Over-paying DeAngelo Williams & Jonathan Stewart when the staff won't use them.

But he is paid a lot of money to produce and that isn't happening. JR was willing to pull the trigger with Hurney in the middle of the season and if parting ways with Rivera now would better the Panthers chances of bringing in a quality coach then he should make that decision as well. This season is lost, as far as playoffs, and we need to start building for next year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-27129875946188247052012-11-20T06:32:55.798-05:002012-11-20T06:32:55.798-05:00Mike,
