Carolina Panthers' Ron Rivera wins Coach of the Year
Carolina Panthers' Ron Rivera wins Coach of the Year
20

By Chris Wesseling
Around the League Writer
Published: Feb. 1, 2014 at 06:56 p.m.

NEW YORK -- Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera was announced as the 2013 Associated Press Coach of the Year at Saturday's "NFL Honors" awards ceremony.

Rivera faced stiff competition from the Chiefs' Andy Reid, the Eagles' Chip Kelly, the Seahawks' Pete Carroll, the Patriots' Bill Belichick and the Cardinals' Bruce Arians.

After entering the season on the hot seat, Rivera turned his Carolina career around in October by embracing a newfound aggressive philosophy.

Rivera's penchant for gambling on key fourth downs earned him the moniker "Riverboat Ron," galvanized his team and injected life into a stale organization.

This football epiphany gave rise to a franchise-record eight-game winning streak that ultimately resulted in 12 wins, the NFC South division title and the Panthers' first playoff appearance since 2008.

The front office promptly rewarded Rivera with a long-term commitment this week, recognizing the gradual improvement reflected in the team's 17-5 record over the past 22 games.

Having established himself as a risk-taker and one of the NFL's premier defensive strategists, Rivera's next challenge is to keep pace with the rest of the NFC superpowers by fostering more creativity in scheme and play-calling on offense. He has three more years to make it happen.

Live from New York, it's the NFL "Around The League Podcast" Super Bowl Preview!

I just can't understand why some people thought Kelly should get it over Reid.

Perspective. You need some.
Unless those voters viewed that 2-14 team not that bad, players just packed it in for shitty coaching. Stated already they had how many probowlers last year?


And the choke job in the playoffs probably sealed the deal.

Have you ever, even once, looked at the Chiefs in a positive light? I have never seen anything but negativity from you. Ever.

Well maybe you should read better, I'm supporting Will Shields being snubbed, that's the Chiefs in a positive light no? The only things I'm negative about is our overrated defense/defensive coordinator. And Jeremy Maclin.

Me not saying Andy Reid was robbed over Ron Rivera does not make me negative. How can you not say Ron was deserving, if it was someone like Chip Kelly over Andy Reid you have a very good snub argument.

Just because I dont have the Chiefs vs the rest of the NFL world like most people do around here when they feel the team deserves everything, doesn't make me a negative fan.

Anybody who doesn't go balls deep on everything the chiefs do is negative as far as you're concerned.

Ths is bullshit Brock, and you know it. Anyone who says anything positive about the team is "balls deep" to you. Childish bullshit.

Andy Reid has a good year, but Ron Rivera deserved it. He went from on the verge of being fired to having a playoff bye week in the same year lol

Rivera turned his own team around and he did it against a pretty tough schedule.
Pretty much this.

The talent on the Chiefs was here before Andy walked through the door.
Yes, you are


and how could the talent already be here when Pioli is the worst GM in the history of the universe?

Carolina is always going to need a coach who can keep Cam focused. Rivera did a good job of that for most of the year.
