I’m honestly not trying to attack you so please don’t take it that way, but how many fug ups does he get?  Seriously.  Does Tepper think that when he became the owner Ron would magically turn into a competent coach?  Did he not pay attention to the previous seven years?  Ron has been through a hundred camels worth of straws in his time here.  The time to make a change is now.  Blow up the GM and coaching staff and build his own.  Make this team his instead of holdovers from the previous incompetent owner. 

I doubt Tepper followed the Panthers too closely before the team went up for sale and he got into bidding.  So going in he probably had the mistaken idea that Ron, 2 time coach of the year was a solid coach.

Now, before dropping that 2.5b... or hell, at the very least afterwards, you'd think he'd have taken the time to rewatch the Panthers games of the Rivera era.  Apparently he did not though, because if he had, theres no way clown shoes is still employed by us today.

Yea you’d think he would go back and do some research...

^ this 100%. Why are we so committed to making “Ron” a good HC? What we’re saying is we HOPE he eventually becomes something he isn’t right now. HOPE is not a strategy.

he's a hedge fund manager...the guy is 100% more concerned about stocks than how his crappy football team did.  we're second, but stock market is where his mind is and always will be.

finally someone else gets it! 

dude doesnt give a damn about anything but money! Fans creamed themselves with him putting the logo at midfield. In his mind he thought " I literally did nothing, but made millions by doing nothing". 

But But.,..we are ready to win the homers said!

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.
