Ron Rivera

I guess im in the minority or alone here .. but good for Ron.

I personally dont think the Wentz decision was Snyder's meddling. From what reported, Ron went to Snyder and made the sales pitch and Snyder was all on board.

I think Rons pissed at the timing.

He screwed up on the "quarterback" answer, admitted it, apologized, had a team meeting and I think every one in the locker room wanted to move on

and then this unsourced rumor report comes out the next day

-----------

if Ron knows that he made the Wentz decision .. he has every right to be pissed at some made up rumor report that only seems to be done to stir some more shit up.

I think Ron is getting pissed this off field stuff is leaking into the locker room stuff and he is speaking up for his players.

The players - wentz, allen, terry - everyone shouldnt have to deal with all the shit going on outside .. and then some made up rumor shit re in locker room relationships is thrown out there when we are trying to put out fires?

Good for Ron.

Rally around the family with a pocket full of shells.

Fuck everyone not in the locker room.

Job is starting to wear on him, he didnt look "good" last night. I wouldnt be surprised if he steps away after this year if this continues.

RR was hired to quell the drama that this club always finds itself in. That he’s now part of the drama, that tells you (1) it’s the franchise that causes it, not the hired hands, and (2) Ron’s days are numbered.

I’m no psychologist, but my theory is in this organization you end up having to lie for and about Dan Snyder. That’s soul-crushing and makes you spout nonsense.

We started with a nice-guy mediocre coach, and now we a have a mediocre coach going off the rails.

Agreed but I think Ron is trying to be the teflon, the protective shell for the locker room here. Outside stuff is leaking in, he said the players hear all of it, and I think he wants that locker room to be a vault or space where that outside noise cant come in.

Then he put foot and mouth leaving a leaking crack in the locker room shell and now the report is trying to pour gas on Rons "quarterback" comment

If that is true then RR is trying to do the impossible. In today's world, news is instantaneously accessible on the cellphones the players carry. Not to mention that the players practically live on twitter.

I think Rons reaction the last couple of weeks is down to his sudden realisation of what everyone on the outside have been saying for some time, its year 3 and the team sucks.

Ron's in over his head and it is so obvious.

I think anyone who comes here to be the head coach is in over their head, and he has taken on a lot more than that. I'm sure it's all wearing on him, and being 2-4 certainly doesn't help.

The only thing that could change our future is a new owner. We’ve seen everything fail. There is no savior that can work with Snyder.

He better turn it around or we are acrewed.
