Ron Rivera Presser: We’re going to ride with Carson Wentz. We’ll go with the good and the bad

September 11, 2022 by Hogs Haven


Ron Rivera talks to the media after their season opening win against the Jaguars

Ron Rivera wasn’t happy with the team’s 3 turnovers, and it’s going to be a point of emphasis to cut those down. He made it clear that he’s going to ride with Carson Wentz through the highs and lows. His QB knows what he did wrong on his two interceptions, and will work to avoid those mistakes.

Rivera said this team has moxie and didn’t give up. The defensive line suffered an injury early when Phidarian Mathis left the game with a knee injury that the team is very concerned about. Rivera said they were gassed in the 4th quarter, but still did their jobs and got the pressure on Trevor Lawrence that led to the game-sealing INT. Darrick Forrest had that pick, and also had a great game playing for an injured Kam Curl. Rivera says the young safety has taken advantage of his opportunity and made plays today.

Interceptions:

Carson Wentz calls his pair of picks “an ugly stretch.” First throw was late, second was a hell of a play, he says. Even admits his game winner “wasn’t that good of a throw” but “the world got to see” Jahan Dotson’s ability pic.twitter.com/gSYz3BAlX8

— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) September 11, 2022

Wentz said after his two picks the key was bouncing back of course but also to not try and fix it all at once.

Fourth Quarter:

Carson Wentz on his 4Q: “Make a couple of mistakes, try to go fix it.”

(Narrator: He did.)

Jahan Dotson: “It was definitely pretty cool. Carson’s just giving me a chance. … I can make plays for this team.”

The spotlight:

Obvious to everyone but Dotson.

PR went looking for him. They found him in the parking lot. pic.twitter.com/u7uFxBIXkQ

After a slight delay, Rookie WR Jahan Dotson arrives to speak to the media.

He was outside in the parking lot lol #HTTC

“I was outside with the family”

Dotson may need get used to going to the podium a lot after games if he keeps scoring two touchdowns. @wusa9 pic.twitter.com/z2qCQ8IAN9
