Re: Ron Rivera Thread

Not sure why everyone seems so happy to sign a guy who has never had back-to-back winning seasons.

I would also prefer someone with a sustained track record of success, or someone like Bienemy who comes from the Andy Reid track record of assistant coach success.

However after this shitshow I am also willing to settle.

We might be able to do better, but... no back to back winning season but 3 back to back to back division titles, a SB appearance, and 11-5, 12-4 and 15-1 records in a 5 years span. We haven't had a 11+ wins season since 1991. I was 1. So yeah, I'll happily have Ron Rivera coach the Redskins, especially if he's demanding total control. We need someone who's going to stand up to Dan if need be.

I agree, plus he has won two coach of the year awards. His record and what he could do at times was always tied to cam Newton’s health which was up and down all the time.

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

Excpect Ron Rivera to be the next head coach of the Redskins. Will be in Ashburn tomorrow. Likes the young players. Could wait to name a GM until after the draft. #httr #redskins

Re: Ron Rivera Thread

So what coaches will Ron bring with him? I assume he will try to keep KOC for Haskins sake, but what about the DC position?

Niiiice find.

For anyone who doesn't want to click the link:

Dismissed after only one season by the San Diego Chargers, Greg Manusky deserves another shot at coordinating his own defense.

The former Washington Redskins linebacker is a smart, young play-caller who crafts a hybrid 3-4 scheme built on strength and pressure.

Manusky constructed much of the current San Francisco 49ers defense and developed their physical dominance against the run.

He did not enjoy the same success in San Diego, where his Chargers unit often found it difficult to match opponents at the point of attack.

But Manusky is still a solid defensive coach, with plenty of ideas and is still refining his craft. He would be ideal for a team possessing hybrid personnel.

Best Landing Spot: Carolina Panthers

The Panthers have experimented with 3-4 fronts throughout the season and need defensive help.

Manusky would work well with head coach Ron Rivera and construct a unit able to handle both three and four man alignments.
Key words that don't compute: Smart, young, hybrid 3-4 built on strength and pressure.

I feel like Jay Gruden read that article and was sold on him after Joe Barry.
