Would Tepper ever change the mascot, logo, and jerseys?

It's no secret, the Panthers literally have the unluckiest mascot in the world: a black cat. This legitimately begs the question if the mascot has been a bad omen and negatively affected the performance of this team over the years. The Panthers are like Icarus, falling back down to earth whenever they fly too close to the sun, only to drown in the ocean.

Would Tepper ever consider changing this mascot to something that doesn't represent unluckiness and bad omens? I honestly would support it. It would give me one less reason to justify why this team is so consistently disappointing. What would you call the team? Maybe we could just change the cat logo from black to blue or white or something.

I could see him changing the jerseys but the mascot is too recognizable to the public to have it go away, didn't it win some award recently for best mascot or something?  if he got rid of it they'd basically have to change the whole team name and completely rebadge.

The Panthers all-black alternates did win best uniform of all time on an NFL.com poll because Dave Damesheck is a douche bag and said the Panthers suck or something so it mobilized Panther nation to create a bunch of bots that voted 5 million times to win the poll. He didn't announce a winner and never spoke of it again.

Jerseys probably. As for the rest, you're way overthinking things.

On the mascot or logo, why would he make such drastic changes if they aren't necessary for a franchise he just paid billions for? Especially when he could just clean house in the front office and bring in a fresh vibrant innovative staff. Winning does a hell of a lot more than a logo or a mascot.

A black cat logo is the cause of this team's poor performance?

Why stop there?  Maybe a witch burning, a virgin sacrifice or perhaps a Commissioner Goodell voodoo doll might improve our fortunes?

In reality the cause is much less mysterious than the OP suggests, look no further than inept ownership, management and coaching for the Panthers organization's inability to build a winning tradition.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
