Years ago at my old company, the big boss got fired and a new boss was brought in. He threw a pizza party to introduce himself and talk about things going forward. Right after that meeting he fired like 15 people. So in my book, refreshments mean firings incoming.

If we end up starting 2-6 i wouldn't be surprised to see Tepper gut everyone. Dude bought a mansion around his boss's old one. He has an ego issue.

The coaching staff is safe.  Can't rebuild a coaching staff right before training camp.

Anyone else is fair game.  May not be any changes, but yeah it's possible.

[Chief Keek]

I don't expect Tepper to come in and do clean sweep right away but I'm expecting he'll take it methodically.

What do I want to see happen?

In the words of the man himself WIN!

What I don't want to see happen?

A continuity of the mediocrity that became the norm under JR and his staff

What do I expect to happen?

WIN! WIN! WIN! WIN!

Now that the new era of Panthers football is officially here, three questions:

- What do you want to see happen?

- What do you not want to see happen?

- What do you expect to happen?

Rephrase the questions, kinda?  Sure, it's kinda the same thing, but a smidge different...

• What should Tepper START doing?
• What should Tepper STOP doing?
• What should Tepper CONTINUE doing?

Fair enough. Feel free to answer however you like.

I'll try*.....

START:  decide if you're going to be a hands-ON or hands-OFF owner, and surround yourself with The Best People possible to achieve success

STOP:  ignoring what the fans are clamoring for (that seems reasonable, of course). If the number one way to say THIS IS OUR HOUSE and improve fan satisfaction is to put the logo at mid-field? That's a low low cost to pay, and will make an immediate statement that this is a new era. If the number one thing fans want is something else -- you're not new to the NFL , steal ideas from everyone else and implement those.

CONTINUE: hey, some traditions are worthwhile to keep intact. STAND AND CHEER played at every score? YES!!!! 

 

*disclaimer: I really have no idea what I'm talking about. I bow to the rest of you here on The Huddle(tm) with your [seriously!] more informed commentary.

[Mr. Scot]

Yeah... Pretty sure "Stand and Cheer" hasn't been played in quite a while.

A fan can dream, can't they? LOL

(I'll settle for "Lightning Fast, Big Black Cats...")

[Mikey818]

I want to see Cam be a 65% passer, Cmc kill it for 1800 yards from scrimnage and the defense shut down everybody 15,and 1 record

In that case, here is to having plenty of refreshments!

Stay the course for now.

- What do you not want to see happen?

Mass firings and chaos just before the season starts.

Quote

- What do you expect to happen?

I expect Hurney and Rivera remain in place as long as the team wins at least 2 playoff games this year.

As long as the Panthers continue to build on their previous season's success H&R will likely keep their jobs

If the team should falter along the way, I don't expect Tepper to provide a lot of wiggle room for either coach or gm.

[Pup McBarky]

Want: At least 10 wins a season for the next decade

Not Want: More than 6 losses in a season for the next decade

Expect: At least one losing season in the next decade
