Questions for Dave-

Did you know the Panthers have never won a Super Bowl?

Do you know who the Panthers single season sack leader is?

Do you know who single handily jump started the run of 4 playoff appearances in 5 years in 2013?

Do you know the Panthers do NOT have anything remotely close to an all around DE near his prime?

Do you know that this deficiency may very well stand in the way of your primary and secondary objective to WIN (the Super Bowl)?

Do you know one of the best DE’s on planet earth is loved and adored by our GM, coaching staff, and players, is not yet 30 years old but has the tread of a player not yet 25 years old, and could be had for the league minimum salary?

Do you know that said player has excelled as a human being, athlete, and teammate, in multiple sports, in the calendar year 2018?

Do you REALLY want to win Dave?  Is it REALLY your primary objective?

Yeah, nobody's asking about Hardy.  And even if they did, Tepper isn't gonna be interested given his background of seeing domestic abuse.

Hardy is never gonna be a Panther again.

Follow up questions for Dave-

Are you aware that Greg Hardy played for the Carolina Panthers in front of a supportive, adoring, and raucous Bank of America Stadium crowd on national TV in August 2014 as he abused former #1 overall pick Eric Fisher?

Are you aware that Greg Hardy played in the season opener against the Tampa Bay Bucs in 2014, earning a sack in a huge divisional road win with a backup QB, ultimately the difference in winning the division?

What is your knowledge of Ray Rice, Rebecca Thorne-Tin, and Nicole Holder?...and Jerry Richardson?

Did it bother you that the QB of your former team, the FACE of your former franchise, was alleged to have committed multiple heinous acts, including but not limited to sexual assault?

I don't think he will either but Tepper bought into a team whose face of the franchise is a serial rapist...

He bought his Steelers stake while that story was still in it's infancy, but to be real here Tepper was buying into his childhood favorite team. Roethlisberger just happened to be the QB at the time. No way to know how he felt.

Mind you, we do know how he feels about Mike Tomlin.

And there's no way to know how he feels about a guy like Hardy or any other players with question marks. He may look at each case individually and may even determine winning is more important to him than fielding a team of choirboys... or he could be more like JR and won't knowingly bring on a single guy with off field issues. No way to know... except that he determined buying into the Steelers was more important than the principle of having squeaky clean players on the team...

Pretty sure it was Gantt who said based on what he knows, he doesn't expect Tepper to handle character risks any differently than the Panthers do now. We'll see.

That said, even if he does loosen the reins on that front, I see zero chance of Greg Hardy ever wearing an official Panther uniform again.

Sure, let’s loosen the reins for real criminals that truly poison locker rooms while a real difference maker with the greatest bang for the buck in league history, who the Panthers love, WHOSE CHARGE WAS EXPUNGED, continues to pay for the sins of Ray Rice and the other 31 at the expense of the Carolina Panthers.

Even if Tepper were interested, Hardy's moved on. He's got a professional contract in another sport. One where he gets to beat up people who aren't women.

Not true.  Listen at the :55 second mark

      Lowest Yards Per Completion...All Time.

      By CRA · Posted

      When Parcell’s said Bryce better “walk on water”…..the implied concern wasn’t that the tiny QB could survive being hit.  It was acknowledging he would have to be extremely special to overcome the handicaps he would face at this level.  Which he isn’t and can’t.  which isn’t just being hit.  It’s being able to play in an NFL pocket and make NFL throws from it….and that ultimately is Bryce’s problem.  He doesn’t play well from a NFL pocket and can’t make all the throws as needed.  He can’t see as others can.  Which impacts the throws he does and doesn’t take.  It also impacts him bailing and killing plays and turning them into scrambles/dead plays

      Saturday roll call

      By aloysius snuffleupagus · Posted

      9:30 kick off here in Scotland, which is better than the 01:20 early hours of Monday that I feared. Will definitely be watching, but probably wouldn't if it had been 0120 as I need to be up for work at 05:45. Falcons Saints is 6pm on the Sunday so will watch that too if it becomes relevant

      So much revisionist history around the pre-draft Bryce hype. The media was practically united in saying that if he were a couple inches taller he'd be the perfect prospect and it was just a question of whether he'd hold up in the NFL being that small. The Panthers did not create the mythos around him they were just the team that bought in. The team was largely praised for the move after and for surrounding him with what was considered an all-star coaching staff at the time.  Yeah part of the fanbase wanted Stroud but let's be real, we're coming from an oversized franchise QB who injured himself out the league. There was some analysis here on the limitations of Bryce's game but people were mostly just concerned he was going to turn into dust when he got sacked in the NFL.
