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.

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
