  1. That's just it, he's not going to get a better deal elsewhere.
  2. No chance either happens, ever. It's the National Football League, not International. The Panthers are here to stay, the business climate in the region is just too damn good to ever look elsewhere.
  3. You are forgetting NFL revenue sharing. All 32 owners share in that piece of pay That's part of the "revenues" he mentioned.
  4. Kraft just inked him to a contract extension earlier this year.
  5. To put it in perspective, if Tepper had $778 in his wallet and that represented his total net-worth, in order to pay off Reich's contract he'd need to open that wallet and hand over... ...$1. I don't think he's sweating it.
  6. https://www.panthers.com/video/david-tepper-speaks-to-the-media-about-coaching-change 11:25 Q: "There have been a lot of reports Frank wanted CJ Stroud, you tipped the scales and said you wanted Bryce Young. Is that true?" 11:45 A: "Just the way our processes go here, I'll just say after this really plain, on all those decisions whether it was the Head Coach, whether it was Bryce, I don't really vote on those decisions until the last piece. Okay so those decisions are made by the football people. Now look, everything that's right and everything that's wrong here ultimately is my fault. Okay, I have the final say. But as far as those decisions whether it's Frank Reich, or it's Bryce Young, those decisions are made and in the case of Bryce I believe it was unanimous on the coaches and the scouts, and very strong opinions at the time. Now it's been reported and we've talked about it, originally we were going to go with the #2 pick and we thought we'd get CJ because we thought the Texans were gonna pick Bryce, and listen we preferred Bryce he was our #1 pick, we had a lot of conviction... ...and again, even though if the process is 5 people in the room, and 4, and the way the votes came in and Frank was the first choice, I always could veto that choice. And even if it was Bryce, and the votes came in unanimously in this particular case, I could have vetoed that choice. In both cases I supported both choices. Okay, I'm just going to say that I supported both choices. I supported the coaches, I supported the scouts, their unanimous opinion, and I supported Frank Reich. So, whatever is good, bad, or indifferent, is ultimately because the buck stops here, and I take full responsibility for everything -- but that's the way the process runs. And then one last thing and we're gonna go here, as far as Bryce Young is concerned I cannot say this, for myself, and I think everybody in this building would share this sentiment, we are totally confident in that pick. Okay, I think the people that made that pick first, would be totally confident in that, some of them you could ask, and for me I'm totally confident in agreeing with that pick." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you listen closely it sounds like the football people were 4-1 in favor of hiring Frank Reich. Also, the coaches and scouts were unanimous in making Bryce Young their top-choice. The owner fully supported the football people in both situations. The truth always reveals itself.
  7. Really only 5. Sale closed summer of 2018.
  8. Owner is like 94 and sucks donkey balls. Falcons will always stink until he sells.
  9. Can't give the coach personnel control. That's the GM's job. Guys gotta stay in their lane.
  10. Purdy YES Rodgers YES T. Law YES Russ YES DeVito YES
