Rivera on the timeouts: "This is a young football team that I have to protect"
It was a good interview but there was a disconnect. RR talked about how they were in 1st place and reflected on the 2014 or so season when the Panthers were like 3-8 but won the division at 7-8-1. And how this season is very much in play and he doesnt want to leave money on the table ...
but then says he says he has to protect the team by not calling TOS when down by 2 scores?
I dont quite understand who you are protecting or how not calling TOs protect anyone.

It doesn't add up, the injury thing is just an excuse and a poor one at that. If he's truly concerned about injuries why not take a few knees and go into the half vs continuing to run plays like the one where Gibson fumbled right before the half.
