Mr. Scot

There's a lot in this article and it's hard to know what to cut out. I'll post as much as I can. The Panthers have a David Tepper problem On Monday morning the Panthers fired Frank Reich, just 11 games into his tenure, but the Panthers didn't really have a Frank Reich Problem. They (probably) don't have a Bryce Young Problem. They definitely have a David Tepper Problem. Carolina's impetuous owner, a man who has shown a wild proclivity for firing people under his employ, is exactly why Reich's dismissal wasn't a surprising fire. ... And Reich probably won't be the last person from this Charlotte-based dumpster fire who gets canned amid a seemingly non-stop churn of coaches, personnel men and quarterbacks.

He should see this...

McCown fired over Bryce, a quarterback that wasn't his choice. Staley fired over Sanders I guess, but Hubbard and Blackshear were both improved over last year.

Damn

Correction on the time...

He just got here.

It's a behind the scenes thing helping retired players get on their feet, nothing to do with football operations though he still communicates with current leadership. What that role means as far as taking other jobs, unknown. Depends on whether he has a contract, I suppose.

Colbert is still officially part of the Steelers organization, so I don't know if he can be hired in season.

There's no reason to dump Adrian Wilson.

Don't know if it means anything, but...

About the only prediction I feel comfortable making is that we probably won't get our top choice. Maybe not even our second...

See above. And there are numerous comments like that all over the internet right now.

If the stories about Tepper "heavily influencing" the choice of Young are true (and I believe they are) then yes, I would say he's safe.

Working for David Tepper isn't.

Also from Stephen Holder...

I hope so, but I'm not convinced. Tepper is being ripped all over the place right now, rven by people who are on board with firing Reich.

It happened before that. Holder had an extensive story about Reich's last year in Indianapolis and the absolute sh-t show that resulted in Jim Itsay hiring (and trying to keep) Jeff Saturday as his head coach. I'm sure Reich was happy to get away from Irsay, but then he got stuck with David Tepper.

I think part of Holder's point is that he had an interfering owner with the Colts as well. In that case, one who actually dictated to him who he'd start at quarterback.
