I just figured out the haircut...

That's a done deal. Well deserved for actually doing well and not embarrassing us.

Yes, back to a playoff team again, we lost a playoff calibre team and we're back. Can the same be said for the Panthers? No. Still climbing out of a hole made by Tepper. Hornets are a much better product. Not debatable. Tell your boy to get his weight up before he can sniff Jordans jockstrap.

Best coaching hire so far. I really like this guy. Either you McAdoo or you McAdon't!

That was actually a dig at Tepper. He has yet to bring the franchise back to where it was before he became owner. You know, the self inflicted pit they now have to crawl out of to not be a bottom feeder(win%) franchise. Jordan and the Hornets organization is making Appaloser (until he changes that) look like amateurs in Charlotte sports. Richardson sports too.

The middle ain't bad folks. You're much much closer to striking distance.

Jordan has achieved getting the Hornets franchise back to what they were before they left Charlotte. Before the Hornets left it was " how do we leave the middle?" We're back to the middle under Jordan at least. We were bottom feeding Bobbed cats.

I don't think he's a bad owner at all. The in stadium experience from Bobcat Johnson to Michael Jordan was a dramatic change for the better. Win or lose, it's a party. The courts and uniforms are FIRE and his quest to regain the legendary Hornets name will go down in North Carolina lore for generations. He'll take that. He said publicly many times that IF he finally has that squad that can compete he will pay the luxury tax. He's said that for years. Is this that squad? Yes. That's why D'Antoni is rumored to be the new HC and his 7 second offense is made for LaMelo. Jordan brought in Mitch as GM. That has been fruitful. As of now the Hornets have the most accomplished and mature franchise owner in Charlotte sports for sure. I don't think the Jordan is a bad owner mantra will stand the test of time.

Why waste any more time and resources on obvious backup trajectory guys trying to relive glory lost? The NFL knows what Baker Mayfield, Gimmy G, and Sam Darnold are, the Browns, 49ers and Jets already spent millions trying to figure that out. Why throw good money after bad? Stop the foolishness. Let's eat!

This guy is somebody who knows the family. Very reliable source. He says it's almost a done deal.

? I'm a fan of both. Haven't eaten there in a very long time though. And if our boy takes the name as his own forever, that's what I was going for. You cool Sizzle, I'm happy you're here. Tepper has to earn it though, even moreso because of hubris. I do think he'll become a good/great owner but that will hinge on him not driving the Bentley and sitting where he's supposed to. If he hasn't been keeping in touch with Jerry Richardson he needs to change that immediately. If he still has his it Mr.Tepper needs seek his mentorship from time to time. He's the ONLY person who knows and has succeeded at being the owner of the Carolina Panthers. His insight is more valuable than say, the owner of the Jets, who's # he needs to burn. Next time you golf with the big guy bring this up. Thx. Let's Eat!

Greg Hardy and Steve Smith on that 2015 squad, there would have been a brawl refs included.

Our all black uniforms are better than most of the league. Just need an alternate helmet in black.

Why? It didn't happen!? Did we have a winning season in the last four years? Has the historical win percentage gone up or down? Maybe running things like academia in a professional setting wasn't a great tactical approach to not getting rag dolled by other NFL owners and organizations. You are a Tepper superfan. I get it.

"Turning around" would imply the business was struggling prior. The Panthers were historically a franchise that stayed away from the bottom in favor of the middle with a couple blips to the very top. The franchise needs "turning around" after all the errors were made by Tepper himself. While I am glad they brought back Wilkes and brought in McAdoo, who I'm high on, the bar has been set so very low since Tepper acquired the franchise four years ago, middle ground would be a big step up. Turning things around to crawl back to up to the middle from self inflicted wounds is hardly worth a slow clap.

Actually him and Moose would tell stories of how hard their WR coach was on them. They credited their success to that guy, Richard Williamson, iirc Maybe his teachings came off as hot tempered and dismissive of apparent talent lacking discipline. Maybe that coach rubbed off on those two. They were straight up pit bull WRs. Both Moose and Smitty would be the aggressor after the catch. They wanted to stiff arm or pop somebody. That's similar to that old school Walter Payton type football. Old #34 became the hunter when he got the ball. He'd give the hits moreso than taking hits.

His fictional level of stamina is superhuman. Get him a Tesla.

Daredevil needs a car. He would run all the way to a fight. Beat up a bunch of guys, and then would have to run or walk home.

Corral is very adept at throwing accurately while on the move, almost Aaron Rodgers like, who is a good physical comparison. So for him the RPO may work out if he doesn't hold the ball and can throw it away if nothing is there.

So all of a sudden Sam Darnold is going to turn into a decent QB? You may not like stats but what the stats measure is your ability to do your job despite what is being thrown at you. In the real world we keep or loose our jobs based on our performance measured by statistics. What is evident is some guys can do it some can't. Some people are just faster thinkers, readers, reactors. These things are quantifiable. Look at Drew Brees and Tom Brady both around 67% career completion percentage. Those guys worked super hard at processing and reacting. If facts are annoying and reality hurts, choose another more accurate player or another team, don't blame ripp.

Shoulder is shot. Hypocrisy if the report is accurate. I'm not a doctor are you a doctor?

I know people are soooooo scared to play Matt Corral but how can you put one of the worst QBs in history ahead of a forme first round rated QB(before the Pickett/Willis hype) supposedly the #1QB on your big board? What makes Matt Corral out of the SEC sooooo not ready to start in the NFL. Nonsense. What is training camp for? What is your OC do? Why is there a QB coach? Sam is a glorified backup QB and in reality lucky to be a backup in the NFL with his horrible career stat lines and injury history. It's funny how some guys get the benefit of the doubt and all the chances they need to show they are below average. You've got the coddlers out there trying to protect poor Matt Corral from the NFL like the Panthers have a better option. You won't catch the NFL by surprise with Sam Darnold everybody knows what to do with Sam. The NFL hasn't had the chance to gameplan Corral and he appears to have a much brighter future than anything the failed Darnold experiment has produced. Turning the page can be hard, but you have to let go of the past to accept the future ahead whether that be Matt Corral at QB or someone from the next draft. Corral needs to be evaluated for a season to know if he's that guy. That is paramount. No coddlers.

Stop all this nonsense. The focus for us and Ben McAdoo going forward is to get #9 on the field.
