This is easily our worst era.  I really think it beats out the deaf mute Seifert's regime.

The team is BORING and never wins and there is hardly anybody likable on the roster or staff. Yes this is our worst era its not really close.

Yeah they both suck equally, just at least Rhule has done something football related at college whereas Tepper is a small man syndrome hag of a creature with nothing even resembling football intelligence or know how.

This is why its dumb that the NFL has owners in the first place. What the fug does Tepper know about football? His qualification for owning the team was having enough money to buy it. That seems like a silly way to run any organization. 

The NFL should not have "owners". The teams should be publicly owned and operated. In such a system Rhule would have never even gotten the job (he was woefully unqualified at the time of hire). 

Every NFL team should be publicly owned and operated

It's been shown by deep dive economic analyses that flashy new stadiums provide terrible ROI for municipalities. I hope they tell Tepper to pound sand.

55% of people disapprove giving the Bills 850M to build a new stadium, while  22% approve. These stadiums are nothing more than welfare for the rich. Its  the city council saying well you're rich and connected so here is MORE MONEY even though NOBODY gets ANYTHING in return. Across the board people need to shut this poo down. It is the clearest example of crony capitalism imaginable. And fug Tepper in my Baker Mayfield voice

First of all, yes, of course he would move the team if there was an option that made financial sense. You are insane if you think any of these owners care about the locations of these teams. Every single year one of these assholes begs their respective city council for billions of dollars to build a stadium at the tax payer expense. It isn't the "government" that pays for these stadiums, its literally you and me, and somebody, somewhere absolutely has to tell them  to kick rocks at some point. 

I don't understand why any sports league needs "owners".  It is an outdated concept that causes more problems than not. Look at the Washington situation, or the Miami situation, or the Houston situation or the Detroit situation etc. These out of touch crybabies rake in millions every year and demand the tax payers build their stadiums, while getting what in return? Seriously, why does this league need owners? I honestly had a lot of hope for Tepper, but he has literally made me believe that owners in sports need to go. That is how bad this regime has been. It might be for the BEST if he does decide to skip town. Then in 5 years maybe the Carolinas would finally get a competent franchise.

Somebody should make an NFL stock market so I can short the Panthers 

I predicted that they would lose to the Giants, and that would officially start the spiral to a 4,5 win season because they are mentally weak and poorly coached. I expect Atlanta to win by at least ten points.

NGL, I thought it was only a very small fraction of the fanbase that didn't like or believe in the Rhule hire and regime, but clearly it was either his hire or Cam's dismissal, or both, but the mass exodus of present Panther fans on Sundays has resulted in BOA stadium becoming a home game for the opponent this year and it has been absolutely embarrassing.

We might have had a smattering of opposing fans over the years, that you could sometimes hear during games, but this season, they are the loudest faction of spectators there.  Against both the Eagles and Vikings the crowd booed when bad calls were made against the visiting team, cheered wildly when they scored, and against t the Vikings, the crowd even started a "Skol" chant.  It's worse than it's ever been.

It started with disregarding the most important player in the history of Charlotte sports, then replacing him with Teddy Bridgewater, and THEN replacing HIM with Sam Darnold. It’s honestly been a shitshow.

This team is the football equivalent of Panera bread. Bland and cold and corporate and definitely not the most exciting place in the world to eat, but it’s located 2 blocks away from the sorority houses and will therefore get business regardless.
 

This team is lifeless and honestly just boring to watch. There is no excitement, no passion, no energy, nothing. I’ve been watching for 20 years and I don’t remember a time where I’ve cared less.

Darnold's long-term upside completely thumps that of a 2nd round pick.

Based on what? Hes played almost 40 games in the NFL. There are more questions surrounding him than clear answers. You can argue that Jameis Winston has a higher upside.

I mean the  O-Line was pretty mediocre in 2015 and downright awful in that superbowl. Its never been a focus of the FO, even after they drafted a QB with the first overall pick in the draft lol

Honestly I’m apathetic now. Up until 2015 I would get mad as hell and my day ruined if the team lost. Now I actually think it’s funny as hell watching this bad news bears franchise do it’s thing.  I watch l hoping they will be good, but in the end really don’t care. Tepper has proven he’s not a good owner, his decisions are as inept as the previous owner.  

I stopped watching this team religiously after 2016. Still a "fan", but it is certainly not worth wasting my Sundays afternoon watching a mediocre football team. Slowly but surely, nowadays I only watch Red Zone and I am a "fan" of the entire NFL. It is a much, much better experience to just enjoy the action and all the talent in this league without being tied down to one team, especially this team.
