Mr. Scot

I've never openly stated any such thing. I think both of them are terrible at their jobs, but as I've stated many times being terrible at your job is not a reason to hate someone.

Ah yes, the "you just hate them" argument. Congrats. You've managed to place yourself on par with Sizzlebuzz. As far as how your arguments read, pretty sure I'm not the only one interpreting it as defending Tepper. But I suppose you'll say the others just "hate" him as well.

Even if that scenario is true, who made the final decision? For that matter, if Tepper has other people making those decisions, and those people are doing their jobs poorly, it's still ultimately falls on him. He's the guy at the top, so the buck stops at his desk. The bottom line here is that you're strangly looking for some kind of circumstance that absolves Tepper from blame for bad hires. Don't know why, but that's your thing right now. Are you planning to apply the same method to clear Tepper of blame for hiring Matt Rhule?

You're reeeeeaally stretching here... And FYI, it's Mark Hart.

Your quote...

You were suggesting that someone other than Tepper hired the respective CEOs of Tepper Sports. It's kind of a silly notion.

Not exactly hard to find... Panthers owner David Tepper hires Glick as team president Tepper shuffles top execs for Panthers, Charlotte FC Glick was initially hired as Panthers team president and later promoted to CEO of Tepper Sports. When he reportedly "stepped aside to pursue other opportunities", Kelly was named his successor in that role. Given that's the highest official there is at the organization, is there any evidence whatsoever that anyone other than Tepper gave them the job? I mean, if you really wanna pursue an "everybody's fault but Tepper's" argument, you're gonna need at least some small shoestring of evidence? Do you have that?

Never seen any indication that these were hired by anyone other than Tepper.

Ugh. He was terrible. Basically embodied the idiot POS frat guy who thinks he's something.

Reports were actually that he looked good in OTAs. The reason they said he wouldn't be taking starter reps anymore was because they expected the team to trade for Mayfield.

Granted, but the trends would tell me that Tepper isn't very good at it.

He's the one who hired all these guys though. And it's also likely he'd have had to approve at least some of their actions. That scenario doesn't really help Tepper look any better.

Yeah... Can't go be me though. I'm not the norm.

As I recall, Hart is the guy we plucked from the Steelers. He was supposed to help get things set up in a similar fashion. Feelings about Tepper aside, it really is starting to look like rats deserting a sinking ship.

This is getting a tad ridiculous

I picture him introducing BRRROOOOOCK...LESNARRRRRR!!!

We're a long way from "iconic" Changes to uniform aesthetics don't bother me. I could see some level of annoyance if they were changing a longtime logo or something like that (though I thought our logo change was an improvement) but changing a color scheme, moving a stripe, switching a font or some such? Not a big deal to me. Add in that for the moment, it's just one game anyway. Heck, if teams never made changes, Cincinnati would still be stuck with those ugly helmets that had the word "BENGALS" on the side rather than the tiger stripes.

"We are Venom"

The Process... Note: I foresee this video getting a lot of meme type usage

Basically, an extended discussion of the difficulties a quarterback faces when going to a new team late in the offseason. It's mostly common sense stuff, and admittedly valid. The picture that it paints isn't hopeless though. Tannenbaum does acknowledge that Mayfield could conceivably succeed, even if the current situation is challenging.

I actually remember this...

It's possible. Also possible that nothing needed to happen. Jerry Richardson's first target to coach the Panthers was Joe Gibbs. Gibbs turned it down in part because he knew that if he took the job, he'd go all in and work himself to an absolute frazzle just like he'd done when he coached the Redskins. At that point though, he wanted more time with his family. Kuechly is the same kind of guy, full speed, no quit, balls to the wall from start to finish. Once those guys burn out, it's really hard to relight the flame. And if I recall correctly, he's married now so that makes a difference too. Side Note: How different might our history have been if Gibbs hadn't turned Jerry down

Can't say I ever wore a black helmet, but I absolutely remember helmets being frigging miserable in the middle of July or August

Hey, come on now. That's just... Damn

Remind me: Have we won a game with those yet?
