Gosh, maybe if you pass on 1st down, they might not be expecting it. I guess Frank has some grand plan that he has passed down to his OC.

Looks like Frank is back to calling the plays. PATHETIC.

So, this is what we get when Frank isn't calling plays? PATHETIC.

How many first round draft picks did the Panthers give up?

To be honest, I haven't watched him enough to conclude lack of processing. I just thought his style screamed he wouldn't stay healthy. I felt the same way about Richardson. I don't feel that was about Young because what he does best is processing and he knows to not challenge anyone physically.

I knew when he got hurt against Clemson in the 2019 playoff game that his style of play would lead to a short NFL career. So, no. He's fine in Chicago.

I would negotiate a buyout.

I have some very close contacts also.

Which is why Maye could stay for one more season at UNC.

Seriously? How about the fact that having Mark Richardson (the son) on board cost this franchise Bill Polian back in 1998, the single worst thing that ever happened to this organization. Had Polian become President at that time, the history of the Panthers would have been completely different. Having sons involved in the Front Office rarely, if ever, works. See Rankin Smith, Robert Irsay, etc.

Correct me if I'm wrong here. I didn't watch every play yesterday. But...I saw the drives for first two touchdowns. Then, after the two touchdowns, it looked to me like the offense became pass happy...after driving the ball down the field running the ball. Did I miss something? Did the offense get away from the run after those two drives?

As I said, not true. Do you know who Ted Stepien is? Donald Sterling? You're clueless.

Not true.

Just a guess but...I'm guessing he went with Reich because none of the hot candidates would take the job. They knew to stay away from Tepper. So, Tepper went with Plan B: Offensive Coach who would put together a great staff.

Actually, that was you who kept it going with the..."Agreeing to disagree trying to lay all the blame on one person." I guess I misunderstood your post.

Yeah...one person. Happens all the time in pro sports. Daniel Snyder...Frank McCort...Donald Sterling. I guess your worldview says that guys like Snyder, McCort, Sterling and Tepper are just snakebit. "It's the coach's fault! "But, Daniel, you hired him." "That doesn't matter. It's his fault."

We can agree the disagree. There's no point in rehashing all the bad that has happened since he bought the team. Only to say the Panthers have the worst record in the NFL over the past 5 years. All the names change except one -- David Tepper. The buck stops right there.

He hired the GM and coach. And he's not responsible?

How about this: He purchased the team to 1) Be an NFL owner and 2) Be hands on in putting together a roster. Like, a real life fantasy team. "I'm involved. That's what I bought the team to do. Be hands on. What's the point of owning a team if I can't run the team?" Sadly, in my opinion, that's what we've got. An owner who WANTS to be intimately involved. He wants to win, yes. But he wants to win his way. Which means he is involved in putting together the team. Just a bad feeling here that he ain't backing off...no matter how much they lose. An attitude of: "If I'm not involved, why own the team?"

I was very concerned the day they signed Bridgewater. I asked a friend: What are they doing? Why do you need to sign a QB in a rebuild? March 2020 to March 2023. Bridgewater to Young. The same story every offseason. The names and faces change -- Hurney, Rhule, Fitt, Reich. But there's one name and face that doesn't change. Now there are two instead of one -- the wife is officially part of the Front Office. This is and will continue to be a f------ disaster.

This poster is likely someone who works for the Panthers. David Tepper has the worst record in the NFL since he purchased the team. One and just one person is responsible for that.

"Nicole Tepper, the chief administrative officer of the team..." Be it: Robert Irsay and his sons...Rankin Smith and his sons...Jerry Richardson and his sons...bringing in family to run the show rarely works. He and his wife are going to make football decisions. Likely time to go back to following the Washington football organization. The "I want to win now" isn't going to work. Never has.

Trade the 2025 first round pick. Yeah, that'll work.

Thanks. I've seen it done but I was mistaken in that I thought all professional leagues could do it.

The only reason i remember your QB comments is because you don't talk about Drake Maye being on the same level as Williams and Fields. Drake is 6-5...has a strong arm...has elite accuracy...and great feet. Does that mean he's a sure thing? No. No one is. I've just noticed you tend to leave him off the list. As we've seen with Young, it matters A LOT who you have around you in college.
