I dunno... I wouldnt be surprised if he lets Marty run the draft and then replaces him shortly thereafter.  That would be the completion of a full cycle for the scouting dept.  

It's not unusual for scouting and personnel departments to get cleaned out right after the draft.

GMs tend to get fired at season's end, but anything's possible.

Tepper is just another clown until he takes winning seriously

The main thing I took from this video is Ron Rivera's Kohl's clearance rack draft day vests.

So you are officially taking back all your accusations of him being a child molestor?  (among other things, NAMBLA, etc)

i never accused him of anything.  i made a statement as delusional as yours, for your benefit.  i hope you saw that he said he doesn't know the football side, and didn't work on the football side, at all, in pitt, and that he is no football expert.  just like i said.    

and yes i will leave him out of it, but not you.  people are saying you're in nambla.   really fine people.  they call me just to tell me about you.

Those who think that Tepper is going act rashly or clean sweep the coaching staff or the FO are in a rude awakening. You must have missed the part about taking a long term approach and doing what is best for long term success. That usually involves consistency and not making radical changes. While he was largely positive about Rivera and Hurney in public, who knows what he said in his all day meetings. He said things like we aren't going to, for example spend lots of draft capital on one player, if it hurts our future success. Or that he was going to stick with Cam even if it takes longer to heal than they hope for. He is playing the long game which is what money managers do. He has been here one year not 8 like Rivera. Regardless of the past, if Rivera and Hurney have success this year expect them to be around for a while.

Tune in next season folks for another episode of 'As the Stomach Turns' where you will see the Carolina Panthers stumble and bumble their way to another mediocre finish to what was promised to be a magical season.

Once more into the abyss we plunge my fellow fans.  Rest assured that Hurney has the situation firmly in hand.

Lord help us.

I want a new GM and coaching staff like everyone does,..but what kind of dumbass would he be if he just bought the team last summer and cleaned house before the season? 

If he cleaned it all on Black Monday? 

Again, everyone would say, DAMN, that’s a man, he’s not taking any poo, wants to win, bla bla bla.

then replaces said staff with who?

pretty much every single coaching candidate that came up was either a prior loser or someone without the Sean McVae excitement.

we would be stuck with a bigger turd than we have now.

everyone burns the stadium down.

you never make decisions based on the court of opinion— it’s amazing how fast people turn,.. and it’s even worst now with the faceless electronic courage given to everyone.

Tepper will wait until good options present. For now he’s pressing this staff to do better.

Yep,  but no one should expect anything more.  This team lacks talent in too many pistons to be great.   It’s gonna take several years to build it back.

That's be said after nearly every season that Hurney has been in charge of this team.

Jesus, he reeeeaaaaaly likes Marty Hurney. 

He comes in, Marty drafts a top WR, a damn good CB, A starting level TE in the fourth, and some decent LBs late.  If Gaulden somehow finds a place, that is a solid draft.  Tepper did not see the meltdown.

In addition, Marty signed Reid and Tepper backed the move.  Marty signed 2 dumpster OTs and they were serviceable  Jarius Wright was a nice signing. 

If you look at this year alone, there is no reason to fire Hurney.  Rivera, however, made mistakes that Tepper referenced--not firing the coaches soon enough, poor clock management, etc.
