What happened to all the Cowher/Carolina talk? I recall that there was a lot of speculation that the Panthers may be Cowher's ideal comeback team.

Reports were that Carolina owner is more about paying up and coming coordinators then paying high priced coaches. Plus Cowher and his ppl put out a list of teams Cowher wanted to coach for and Carolina wasn't one of them.

Rivera's deal 4 years, $11.2 million for Panthers. No option.

Lots of Bay Area exposure going around the NFL recently.
Ron Rivera (ex-Cal) going to the Panthers.
Marshawn Lynch with that run.
Desean Jackson and Aaron Rodgers in the spotlight last weekend (Eagles - Packers)
Harbaugh getting hired. Luck staying
Elway with Denver management

Watching Rivera speak reminds me so much of Singletary.
Paraphrasing: "I will bring in an OC that will mesh with my system and this team..."
Sounds a lot like Singletary.

I actually think he will be a pretty solid coach. They get a good OC and that would be good for them

Well he is a proven defensive coordinator. I don't get the move though. It reminds me of the Broncos firing Mike Shanahan for Josh McDaniels. I think he will be ok.
However, I don't like the mix of a young QB and a defensive head coach. Outside of Jeff Fisher with Steve McNair, has it ever worked out? Often times, their approach retards the growth of the QB. Imagine Randall Cunningham being with the 49ers as opposed to Buddy Ryan at the beginning of his career.
