Will the Riverboat make a stop in Canton, Ohio one day? Well, there might be a chance.
The 33rd Team recently looked into which of the NFL’s current head coaches are bound for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Listed amongst the group of 12 candidates was Ron Rivera—formerly of the Carolina Panthers and currently of the Washington Commanders.
Rivera is marked as a “potential HOFer” in the piece:
With coaches, it’s appropriate for HOF voters to consider the man’s influence beyond the playing field, and Rivera’s is massive. Rivera has struggled in Washington – who hasn’t? – but he has stayed above the mess, just as he did in a similar situation with the Carolina Panthers.
Those situations have seen Rivera steer the franchise’s ships amidst tumultuous ownership changes—one involving Jerry Richardson in 2018 and the other with Daniel Snyder this year. He’s also put together a winning product on the football field more times than not, amassing a combined 98-90-2 record along with five playoff trips and a Super Bowl appearance.
76 wins of those wins and four of those playoff trips (the one with the Super Bowl trip), by the way, came with the Panthers.
