I'm happy to hear he acknowledged the issues on the field and wasn't blind to how the defense progressed...or I should say regressed.  

As he said, this was his Rookie year, the people ready to crucify him are absurd.  Really excited to see what the next few years bring.

Hm

Emphasized good oline gives you great chance to win and we have to make it better.

Dont like him only saying positive things about rivera/hurney.

He seems very thoughtful but im not sure what exactly to glean from that.  It will be impressive if he actually manages to fix the oline and fix this discipline/time management issues he said he cares so much about. Because these have been systemic problems for the panthers for several years under Rivera.

  • Tepper has not had  8 years of watching a hypnotized RR on the sideline not calling a timeout  during the 2 minute drill until 10 seconds after the play ends, using a challenge flag after the coin toss, or watching the team blow leads because he can't make adjustments.

i loved it.  i appreciate the heck out of him finally doing a sit down, and while he did say ron was a good coach he was explicit about not wasting time or timeouts.  not 5 seconds, not 10 seconds.   that was actually a tongue whipping in the way successful people do it.   i'm feeling a lot better about him now.   thanks mr tepper.  no more bad jokes.

Seems like a very smart man obviously. Says he learned a lot and this is the first season he can really make an imprint... I'm curious what could he have learned about his "child" that would compel him to continue allowing Hurney and Ron Rivera to push its stroller? Must not value the life of this child very highly to send it to its inevitable doom.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By panthers55 · Posted

      I see progress and improvements. We aren't the same team we were even at the beginning of this year. You want to harp on the past while I am all about the present and future. Do I know thinks are going to be great moving forward? Actually I don't but I prefer to look at the good instead of the bad. Since he is surely going to be the QB the rest of this year barring injury, I am going to root for him to succeed instead of fail. I always said if we are going to finish at 500 for the year I prefer we win at home since I will be there and want to see wins and crying opposing fans like the cowboys. So far mission accomplished. Now we have to show we can win on the road.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
