Serious (and not so serious) ownership predictions

Let's go ahead and engage in some unfounded speculation (unlike what we usually do here).

Things you predict could happen depending on which bidder wins the Panthers sale, whether serious or... not so much.

 

If David Tepper buys the team...

Someone from the Steelers front office takes over as GM.

The "family" atmosphere is gone. From here on out it's all business.

Upgrades to team facilities and maybe even an indoor practice facility could become possibilities.

The team institutes a reward program where the player who makes a difference in the game gets a set of brass balls instead of the game ball.

 

If Ben Navarro buys the team...

A consultant is brought in to help overhaul the team's operation. Joe Gibbs could be an option.

The team will make more of an effort to market in South Carolina.

Training camp most likely stays in South Carolina, but may not stay at Wofford.

People who get behind on their PSL or season ticket payments suddenly start getting aggressive collection goals.

 

If Alan Kestenbaum buys the team...

Justified or not (and probably not) people start talking about the possibility of the team moving to Canada.

A consultant likely comes into play here too, maybe a guy like Ernie Accorsi.

The team motto becomes "Keep poundin, eh."

(yes I know he's originally from Brooklyn; don't take it so seriously)

 

What else ya got?

Dave Tepper would run the franchise like George Bluth

Ben Navarro would run the franchise like Jack Donaghy 

Alan Kestenbaum would run the franchise like Sam Malone

 

Me personally, I want someone to run the franchise like Frank Reynolds runs paddy's pub.

George Soros buys the team. He then institutes a "guns-for-tickets" program, whereby fans can trade in their guns for game tickets so the guns can be melted into an Obama statue. Everyone with a red MAGA hat will angrily boycott the team, but the business will remain profitable through a successful tenure that includes re-signing Cam and Luke as well as hiring 9/11 truther Pete Carroll to both coach the team and put up a new locker room sign, "Jet Fuel Can't Melt Steel Beams."

      NFL Free Agency

      Rico is 0%. I think we would really like to have Mays back but we have a value in mind and aren't willing to overspend. I think someone probably will so I think the odds are pretty low but not zero.

      Panthers give Ashawn Robinson permission to seek trade

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though.

      13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
