sure they will. only 32 of the these gigs on planet Earth. Tepper isn't the first or last problematic owner. League has always had plenty of Teppers.

I'm not seeing this Tepper under the bus thing. Frank Reich was never going to come in here and play Wilks football. That's not per Dave not to. Frank is doing what Frank does. Frank doesn't play Wilks football and never has.

Breaking News - Nicole Tepper has designed her own virtual reality headset for Bryce Young to wear to help aid and prepare him for future games. The VR headset will feature the latest AI advancements. The programming will feature 11 virtual Nicole Teppers in full NFL gear coming at Bryce like spider monkeys all jacked up on Moutain Dew. Source - some guy named Dave that was at the gas station this am asking for change

we have a much better backfield. I was making Theilen and Hockenson the push. Got to get creative. Then giving the rest of the receiving edge to the Vikings. Which comes out to the overall push. I mean, it's the closest I can get to making an argument for a team. edit - oh, yeah, good call on NE. That might be the one to argue.

present day, I'm not sure the Vikings have better overall skill talent. I'd say we are on par from a skill talent level. but it took injury to make it close. but the Vikings are playing pretty good football.

yep. I even watched it. Here is the summary..... No changes. Nothing different. I love everyone we got. That's all we need. It is tough to tell if Frank is even awake when he is up there though. Possibly sleep talking. Frank got the energy of an old tired sloth. I did find it interesting a reporter questioned Frank's mellow locker room and if they needed to change at 1-9. Of course Frank said no.

I endorse the Panther version of this. So, Luke Kuechly.

Burns hasn't even reached peak Peppers hate yet. Probably won't.

I would add, I always felt Tepper’s voiced reasoning for why Bryce was their pick…..felt like GM soundbites. the whole we can build a cheap offense and put it all in the defense narrative.

those aren't special moments though. When someone says they want to see a moment of a #1 overall QB showing a glimpse of being a special/game changer.......those aren't it. Moving a DB with your eyes once? PJ Walker has a better highlight reel than Bryce Young for crying out loud.

it shouldn't be used as an element of surprise. They also need to clearly alter their run/pass ratio. They should be consistently working under C. Run game would work better. You would finally get some real playaction. Which would help give Bryce some time to make a play. Not saying you eliminate the shotgun.....but you can't work exclusively from it. And you can't have this run/pass ratio. And you got to mix up how you are running out of the gun. Life is a dream for opposing defenses right now. We don't have the talent to run this scheme. And it is just ruining Bryce and preventing development. While an adjusted scheme isn't ideal for Bryce he would at least be forced into a learning role of NFL basics, the run game would function better, Bryce takes less sacks/hits, and you probably could mitigate some of the damage being done to Bryce.

Frank never makes the changes needed when the talent isn't there to do what he ideally wants. SD nor Indy.

Generally, I agree. Issue is Bryce Young is regressing and things look more and more horrific each week. So, regardless of what any one thinks of Bryce...keeping Frank employed is bad news for the health and development of Bryce. And that still is a huge investment. Some basic adjustments by an interim HC could at least reduce the damage to Bryce and have him salvageable for the next HC.

I fail to see how we would have more wins w/ the Steelers schedule. Technically, their SOS has been tougher than ours as they have faced a lot more top tier teams than we have. 49ers, Browns, Browns, Ravens, Jags, etc. We couldn't beat the Bears with a backup rookie QB. Hard to think if we swapped that game for the Rams it changes things. Or swapping the Falcons for the Raiders. We can't score points. Our lone chance of securing another win looks to be the Titans. Any game we win outside that will be a team just imploding and losing vs us winning. Our best chance for wins looks to of been early, before their was film on Bryce and this horrific O.

the team and Bryce are getting worse. And the start was already horrific. we should fire Frank. Look at the Raiders. Look at us last year. There is zero doubt someone else could take over and improve us. Frank brings out the worst in everyone. 10 weeks in and he can't make adjustments a 10 year old could figure out.

I doubt it was good job or you messed something up once

Wasn’t Evero losing his poo at DJ Johnson yesterday?

Yep. I mean, all the firings were technically correct BUT every hire has been worse than the guy fired though. Ron >Rhule > Frank Marty > Fitt and you top that off with now having the worst roster in 20 years That’s what Tepper has done

Fitt should be the one to go. That’s been my take basically before the season kicked off. But I got to say, Frank has really showed himself to be an incredibly stubborn and poor coach. I mean, it is very easy to see how someone else could take over in season and yield better results than Frank. Frank is pointless.

and you can’t plug Bryce into anything. I mean, you get pigeonholed to having to build your scheme to suit Bryce.

CMC too. No point in trading him for what we did.

Oh no doubt, Rhule should have never seen that 3rd season. He fired him late.

Issue is we aren’t just missing on coaches and trying again. while we are missing on coaches, we are also depleting this team of talent. I can’t think of a time where the talent around the QB was this weak. It’s an offensive league and they purged us of our talent and bragged about how some how Bryce Young doesn’t and wouldn’t need it.

At least in 2010….we had legit super studs rostered up. So if you fixed the QB issue there was hope. In an offensive league, we have depleted our team of weapons. So even if we fix the QB issue we are equipped to do anything.

You could have done literally nothing after you fired Matt Rhule…and that version of the Panthers would be significantly better than the team you have today. Firing Matt Rhule was the right call. And you saw that instantly. Firing Frank will be the right call. I suspect if you fired Frank and someone did some very basic and obvious fixes you would see a better team even this season. . But you have a hiring problem. You have a front office problem. You are part of the problem. You keep creating worse and worse messes.
