Rivera is one of the most highly respected coaches in the NFL and there’s every reason to think that he won’t be unemployed for long.  It might be a situation where a ‘change of scenery’ benefits both the coach and his former team.  Rivera has been linked with a number of teams already, most notably the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants.

BetOnline.ag is offering proposition betting odds on the Carolina Panthers’ next head coach.  Here are some of the top candidates to replace Ron Rivera in Carolina along with their betting odds:

CAROLINA PANTHERS HEAD COACH WEEK 1 NFL 2020 SEASON

GREG ROMAN (+300)  Greg Roman is among the most ‘in demand’ assistant coaches heading into the offseason and with good reason.  He’s done amazing work as the offensive coordinator as the Baltimore Ravens and in the process has transformed Lamar Jackson into a MVP caliber quarterback.  Were the Panthers to hire Roman it would be a clear sign that they’re not planning to part ways with injured starting quarterback Cam Newton.  Roman would be a perfect fit to leverage Newton’s skill set but the quarterback’s questionable health makes this hire otherwise problematic.

JASON GARRETT (+550)  It’s not really clear why the marketplace is so strong on Dallas Cowboys’ head coach Jason Garrett to replace Ron Rivera in Carolina.  Although every indication is that Garrett will be fired by the Cowboys at the end of this season the biggest question is this:  Would Carolina want Garrett?  Garrett’s big liability in Dallas has been his inability to get the team past a certain ‘ceiling’ of regular season success that leads to playoff disappointment.  The situation in Dallas isn’t one where Garrett has taken an underachieving team to success—the Cowboys are loaded on both sides of the ball and they’ve underachieved.  To some extent, this is the responsibility of the head coach.  Then there’s the ‘optics’ of Carolina firing their well respected head coach just to hire another recently fired head coach that isn’t perceived as being as good.  I generally like Garrett and think he’d be a good fit in the right situation but Carolina isn’t it.

DAN QUINN (+750)  Quinn’s situation is similar to Garrett’s.  He might not have had as well balanced a team in Atlanta and Garrett has in Dallas but the decline in the Falcons performance on both sides of the ball has been alarming.  There aren’t a lot of people out there saying that ‘Quinn isn’t the problem’ and suggesting he be retained.  Hiring what is perceived as an underachieving coach from a divisional rival would be a very unpopular move among Carolina fans.

JOSH MCDANIELS (+800)  Can’t really argue with McDaniels’ legacy of team success.  He’s been the New England Patriots’ offensive coordinator since 2012 and his impressive showing in that role has largely erased any memory of his ill fated run as head coach of the Denver Broncos.  McDaniels is considered one of the sharpest offensive minds in the game though it could be that he’s a better fit to be a coordinator under a strong head coach.  He had a reputation while with Denver of having a ‘prickly personality’ and that might not be something that the Panthers would want to deal with.  Then again, he’d probably learn quickly that he couldn’t win a clash with Carolina’s owner David Tepper.  A more likely choice than any of the previous three candidates

MIKE MCCARTHY (+1200)  McCarthy lost his mojo late in his run with the Green Bay Packers but it’s tough to argue with his overall body of work.  Won a Super Bowl with Green Bay and did a phenomenal job developing Aaron Rodgers into one of the top quarterbacks in the league.  He’s currently unemployed and he’s taken a year off so he’d likely be refreshed and ready to get back into the coaching game.  A very attractive choice at a fairly high price.
