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

      We have without question one of the worst QB rooms in the league and your key concern is people having the audacity to be talking about it lol.

      I saw this list crossing the screen waiting for any Panther.  Chubba, JC Horn and Hunt.  It was a crime to see so many that were not as good as these three.  ESPN is garbage anyhow.

      Bingo!  We are on the same page.  Our scouting department was average under Hurney, but at least we hit hit it out of the park with our first rounders.  Our scouting department under Tepper's reign with his revolving doors of HCs and GMs has sucked because the scouts largely stay in place.  One or two may change every few years, but the core philosophy stays in place and I believe that to be heavily RAS influenced.    Looking the part of a football player (physical/athletic measurables) vastly outweighs putting on the tape and deep diving into his stats with our scouting department. Until we change that mindset, this team is doomed. Again, how many of us Huddlers (none of us are professional scouts) wanted McConkey over Legette? Yet, we went with XL.  Why?  RAS score, pure and simple.  If you put on the tape and look at the numbers without taking RAS into account, McConkey was the clear choice.
