Serious: What will Tepper do with Hurney?


Recommended Posts

I don't know if it'll be soon, but I don't expect Hurney to stick past this season unless we have something along the lines of a Super Bowl winning year.

It's not strictly about performance. Nobody is more closely associated with Jerry Richardson than Marty Hurney. Heck, the NFL has already urged the Panthers to dump Hurney once.

Plus, to be honest, @Woodie is right. Tepper really doesn't come off like the kind of guy who'd spend two billion on something and just leave it as is. Seems more likely he's gonna put his own stamp on it and maybe soon.

Yeah, it's possible Hurney sticks, but it's not something I'd bet on.

I'd say this is the single most important year of Hurney's career in football. If he can put a playoff team on the field I imagine if he isn't here next year he will be sought by other teams and rightfully so.

He will get his guy after this season more than likely.

there is going to be a turn over period but Tepper didn’t spend 2bill on a team to just watch it as a fan.

Said it elsewhere: He could still bring on his own people this season by putting them in open positions like team president.

Zero chance of coaching changes, but adding people to the front office is possible without firing anyone.

I think it's highly likely that Hurney gets the boot, even after a Championship. Maybe even prior to the first kickoff. What better time for the new GM to get up to speed with the team, than to come on board before the season starts after the offseason legwork has been done.

Tepper will see Hurney's tenure in the past, as well as one year not being indicative of building a Super Bowl team. He will want his guy, that he knows will get the job done how he wants it. Hurney is not that guy.

    • We have without question one of the worst QB rooms in the league and your key concern is people having the audacity to be talking about it lol.
    • I saw this list crossing the screen waiting for any Panther.  Chubba, JC Horn and Hunt.  It was a crime to see so many that were not as good as these three.  ESPN is garbage anyhow.
    • Bingo!  We are on the same page.  Our scouting department was average under Hurney, but at least we hit hit it out of the park with our first rounders.  Our scouting department under Tepper's reign with his revolving doors of HCs and GMs has sucked because the scouts largely stay in place.  One or two may change every few years, but the core philosophy stays in place and I believe that to be heavily RAS influenced.    Looking the part of a football player (physical/athletic measurables) vastly outweighs putting on the tape and deep diving into his stats with our scouting department. Until we change that mindset, this team is doomed. Again, how many of us Huddlers (none of us are professional scouts) wanted McConkey over Legette? Yet, we went with XL.  Why?  RAS score, pure and simple.  If you put on the tape and look at the numbers without taking RAS into account, McConkey was the clear choice.
