Re: Ron Rivera fired

Ron is a great guy, just didn't get it done here, just like everyone else in the Snyder era. Wish him the best.

Preach. He guided us through a ton of off-the-field bullshit too. Snyder could've hired Andy Reid and it wouldn't have worked out.

This. I've never had such a discrepancy between my level of respect for the man and the coach...

Re: Ron Rivera fired

See Mr Synder? That is class and you'll never get what that means.

2 press releases today and both more meaningful than anything put out by Snyder is his entire tenure as owner.

Re: Ron Rivera fired

Ron maybe a nice guy, but he had no fucking business being final say especially with the roster. Complete clown with his decisions

He handed us one of the worst season in franchise history.

Sorry, Jay Gruden was a better coach

This!
Ron sabotaged himself with terrible coaches and very slow decision making.

Re: Ron Rivera fired

In Carolina Ron was just over 50% in wins and here much worse. Between both teams he is 102-103-2. I'm sure Snyder didn't help but Snyder was not in Carolina.

Re: Ron Rivera fired

In one of his last press conferences, it sounded like he was hoping to get back to coaching on the defensive side of the ball. It wouldn't surprise me if he ends up as a DC somewhere.

Ron the coach can blame Ron the GM for the lack of talent on the defensive side of the ball this year, but it was clear he looked overmatched after JDR was fired.

I'm sure he can find a DC job if he wants one, if not maybe he retires. Definitely no HC jobs coming this offseason with his track record of 3 winning seasons out of 13.

Re: Ron Rivera fired

Lotta lowlights from the Rivera era, but there were definitely some highlights too. MNF win against the 11-0 Steelers? Check.

Ron getting choked up about the death of his mom after we ended the Eagles perfect start on MNF in 2022? Check. This is why you treat people with courtesy and respect.

I think this absolutely dumpster fire of a season has made people forget - for 3 years his players fought hard for Ron. Yes we lost more than we won, but we can say that about every coach who ever worked for Dan Snyder. Ron gave us enough flashes every year to get us hopeful about the direction of the team and it was only this year that everything fell apart, and even with the riverboat sinking he left us in great position for the future. So thanks for everything and good luck Ron.

Re: Ron Rivera fired

When Ron was first hired in 2020 I paid close attention to his first few sentences......and of course he didn't accomplish anything he said he wanted to accomplish....
