Ron Rivera... San Diego's Linebackers Coach... WHY?!?!?!?! I'm confused lets say. In disbelief? Baffled? They lost Wade Phillips and they were in NEED of a Defensive Coordinator. Will Ron Rivera pretty much run the defense and make the calls? Possibly... well I would think so. Then again, why not just make him Defensive Coordinator? Is some type of ploy to have him as their Defensive Coordinator while paying him as a LB'ers coach? Perhaps but not wait. If that were the case why would he accept the offer from San Diego? It's 4:30 A.M. and my head is about to explode from confusion and disbelief. Maybe it's a different Ron Rivera. Yes, that's it. Perhaps it's a different Ron Rivera that we have never heard of. Yeah, that must be it! A coincidence, that's all. Ok but it's the Bears Rivera. Maybe they had two Ron Riveras that we did not know about that were competing for Defensive Coord........ eh I give up. I don't know what the hell is going on in San Diego. 14-2 team, #1 in the NFL. They lose their Offensive Coordinator and then immediately right after they lose their Defensive Coordinator and just as fast as that happened... they fired their Head Coach. Okay. Norv Turner is their head coach and Ron Rivera is now their LB'ers coach. That we do know. Why? That we do not know. Call me crazy but something tells me that a couple of those 30 remaning teams could have or would have offered Rivera a more lucrative offer as Defensive Coordinator. You can make the argument that he wants to go to a winning team even though he just came from a team that made it to Super Bowl. My mind is racing at a thousand thoughts per second and all I can think of is who is more sane at the moment... me or Britney Spears and I don't know the answer! Jesus... Maybe I would've understood a bit better why Britney shaved her head after this... maybe she was as shocked as I was about Marty being fired. NFL offseason, you've got to love it!!
