Tepper Mentions Potential New Stadium Location


Untouchable

Recommended Posts

A retractable dome would be An amazing thing for Charlotte. It gives you:

360 days of usable space

attracts FA who want a controlled environment 

Makes it more comfortable for fans (I brought my 5 year old to the TN game, it was 60 and sunny. However the sun beating down on us was too much and we had to relocate). Also takes away cold and rain

gives Charlotte a better chance at hosting a SB

further makes a case for MLS

gives you a venue for large music concerts or festivals

Where this makes a lot of sense for Charlotte Pipe and Foundry is they have been sitting on that land forever. By chance it has become prime real estate in the downtown vicinity of the 2nd biggest banking center in the country, making it extremely valuable. There’s a reason you almost never see factories sitting on prime real estate, its a waste of the lands value. They could rebuild just about anywhere, at most they care about highway access for logistics.

Their management has probably just been sitting on it since B of A was built, knowing that eventually the Panthers or a related party would come calling. Tepper has by far the deepest pockets around and can realize the most value for it, so win win.

Domes should be banned in the NFL. 

All you people pooing, see Green Bay, See Philly, See Buffalo, See Cinny, Pittsburgh and Cleveland. That’s how football is suppose to be played.

The timing of the new stadium talk is just horrific.

We have been abysmal at home the last few seasons. Maybe worry about the product on the field before a shiny new stadium.

Agreed, and came here to post just that.

Concerned with recreating Jerry World, getting soccer to Charlotte, and buying golf courses seems much more important that building an actual consistent winning football team here.  Yes, he has said that's the goal, but words mean absolutely crap as far as I'm concerned.

Why the F is he worried about a stadium when BOA just had a facelift and is perfectly fine?  I don't get it.

 

Signed,

Frustrated Fan

    • Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
    • IMO, getting rid of Bryce will just reveal how bad Canales is. I would prefer getting rid of Canales so we can also get rid of Bryce. I view them as intrinsically linked at this point.
    • I don't disagree, but honestly, this season has been better than I thought it would be.  At the onset, I think I voted that we'd win 3-4 games (or whatever the stratification was on that poll), and here we are with 7 wins and potential for more.  We're a sack hair from being able to sneak into the playoffs - yes, yes nfc south nonsense but still this season has exceeded my expectations.  If we can somehow move on from Bryce and find some consistency, I believe the Panthers are trending upwards (overall).
