Ron Rivera. This is strong. Why can you do what Shanahan, Gibbs, Gruden could not before you. “Nobody knows. But I’ll tell you this: I believe in me and I’m gonna bet on me.”

— Brian McNally (@bmcnally14) January 2, 2020

I was not 100% on Rivera. Always considered him good, but thats about it. 45 seconds in, my mind is changed. Command and captivate are correct. #HTTR https://t.co/CQqxlcndaM

— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) January 2, 2020

Ron Rivera seems very confident in the #Redskins' defensive personnel being able to transition to the 4-3. Liked that he says his front will stop the run on their way to the QB, meaning he will be asking Payne, Allen and Ioannidis to get up the field.

— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) January 2, 2020

Rivera on why moved so fast: “I had 4 weeks off and I was ready to go back to work. I was tired of getting up and Having to do the dishes.”

— John Keim (@john_keim) January 2, 2020

If I’m pulling the most used word by Ron Rivera here: “Collaborative.” Doesn’t matter what the front office structure is if they aren’t on the same page. Hasn’t always been that way here.

— Brian McNally (@bmcnally14) January 2, 2020

Rivera making it clear that this decision to take this job wasn’t made overnight. He and owner Dan Synder spent endless hours discussing Snyder’s vision, the ins and outs of the organization and what his goals are.

— Tiffany Blackmon (@tiffblackmon) January 2, 2020

Rivera says he wants "great teachers" for his coaching staff. Jack Del Rio, his defensive coordinator, is in attendance here.

— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) January 2, 2020

Rivera said he wanted to look for the right fit. Said after meeting with Dan Snyder over a period of 35 hours: “I believe this is the right fit.”

The change in Washington won’t just come from the long-time head coach.

The real change — the change in a toxic culture that reached its boiling point — will come from Rivera's focus on family; the presence of his wife, Stephanie, and daughter, Courtney https://t.co/B4Mju9LKzo

Liked everything I heard at #RonRivera presser. Major emphasis on culture, discipline & winning. Dan justification for coach-centric approach & Ron explanation for how he’ll run player-personnel made sense. All just words? Of course. But they matter. Happy Thanksgiving! #Redskins

— Al Galdi (@AlGaldi) January 2, 2020

Dear @Redskins, the fans greatly appreciated Dan introducing Rivera today. We wish he had taken questions, but understand that doing a Q&A makes him uncomfortable in large settings. We hope that he continues to do press conferences and get to where he can take questions #HTTR

— Alan Lepore (@AlanLepore) January 3, 2020

I think local media was taken aback with Ron Rivera's professionalism during his interview.

No saracasm. No dry wit. Just specific answers, revolving culture and details.

Even their "tough" questions were knocked out of the park.

We got a good one #Redskins nation. pic.twitter.com/QUiYiuXf1F

O'Connell is under contract with the Redskins, so Rivera can keep him. But O'Connell also has other potential irons in the fire, both the pros and college.

2pm tomorrow, Redskins fans will be introduced to their new head coach Ron Rivera. I don’t have a dog in this fight, but I finally believe the turnaround will be begin. Bruce Allen is gone and we’re going to find out just how much of a negative impact he had on the building.

— Chick Hernandez (@MrChickSports) January 2, 2020

I don't know how the Ron Rivera era is going to unfold but you can't deny that the #Redskins already have the best defensive coaching staff they've had in at least 12 years.

Since at least 2004-2007 (Gregg Williams). Maybe even all the way back to Marvin Lewis in 2002.

Getting rid of Callahan is the right move. He instilled a hard nosed mentality in the team that I hope remains but he wasn't successful as either a position coach or head coach here#Redskins #HTTR

— Mark Phillips (@RedskinsReview) January 1, 2020

My heart is having none of it though. Here is hoping my head is either wrong or fully capable of mitigating the possible damage my heart is 100% prepared to risk.

— Bob Floyd (@TwoPennyBeer) January 1, 2020

Keep in mind #Redskins fans that new coach means new philosophy. It COULD mean players that we've become attached to may be leaving. A roster purge is coming. We can't have a new coach with the the expectation that he keeps a 3-13 roster intact. There are key core guys though.

— Disco (@discoque5) January 1, 2020

Perhaps Ron Rivera saw the building blocks of young talent on the roster that he could win with. For instance, rookie WR Terry McLaurin’s contested-catch rate of 60.0% was near the top of the NFL. The young D-line had a streak of 10 straight games with 2 or more sacks. #Redskins

Bieniemy interviewed for four different HC jobs last year and got none. He spent time in the off-season preparing for his next swing at an opportunity.

I’m live on #NFL Live in 90 minutes. As Jerry Jones and Jason Garrett resume their series of meetings, I can tell you this: people inside the building have begun to wonder if Garrett is going to have a role with the 2020 #Cowboys - whether as head coach or in another capacity.

OTC is temporarily removing data that displays what happens when a player is cut or traded after June 1.

This is because, unless a new CBA that allows it is agreed upon before the start of the new league year, the June 1 option is unavailable in the final year (2020) of the CBA.
