A successful football owner doesn’t make a successful hedge fund manager. A successful hedge fund manager doesn’t make a successful football owner. Tepper better fire Marty Hurney after this season and start surrounding himself with successful football people or he will run this city down to the ground. Brass balls my assss.

I don't know what's more laughable. The team's performance as of late, or all the posters here who know more than a self-made billionaire who was a part of one of the most successful franchises of the last few decades.

Under two seasons as owner to replace the head coach -- I find that to be borderline aggressive. Everybody here is so black and white. Hurney does offer incredible value in some areas, or at least one, which is the 1st round of the draft. But there are other areas he's severely lacking. Instead of just replacing him, why not let him play to his strengths and bring in others to compliment him / fill-in his weak areas.

If you have the option to have a Jack of All Trades, but master of none, or 1 person to focus purely on the draft, 1 for contracts, 1 for free agency, you have the best in each area.

This is a different approach, so many here might not understand how it works. But from the sounds of it, if we keep Hurney, he'll only be doing what he excels at. He won't be the lead in cap management, free agency, and probably even coaching hires.

I’m so tired of hearing about how much Tepper is worth. Tell me how many games he has won as an owner or SB trophies he has

Grow a pair and give it time. You are acting like a hormonal lady

This guy is a Hedge Fund gambler.  And now he's gambling with our Panthers.  Total reboot - really? If that's the case wait until the end of the season. He showed his total lack of experience. He gave up on this team when they were 1 or 2 games out of the Wild Card hunt.  You win a couple and you never know what can happen.  There was no reason to fire RR during the season. Nothing is gained by that unless he had a personal vendetta against RR and wanted to embarrass him.  For those of you delusional people who think it somehow helps us in a coach search I've got some oceanfront property for sale in Kansas for you.

      They were also asked to do it because in the book they talk about how they overcame their martial struggles by talking about their own at their church’s martial retreats.

      Barnwell is espn’s stalking horse. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46942577/2026-nfl-offseason-quarterback-trades-cuts-retirements-murray-tagovailoa-fields Evaluation time might be up The end of Year 3 is a critical time for first-round picks at quarterback, as their organizations will need to decide whether they want to guarantee their fifth-year options before the start of the following season. The class of 2023 has two obvious choices, as the Texans are going to pick up C.J. Stroud's option, while the Colts will decline that same opportunity for Anthony Richardson Sr. The third might still be up in the air. Bryce Young, Carolina Panthers 2026 cash: $5.9 million (all guaranteed) Future guarantees: None (potential fifth-year option for 2027) Savings if traded before June 1: $5.9 million in cap and cash Savings if cut before mid-March: None Young's promising end to 2024 hasn't led to a step forward in 2025. Young's sack rate is down, and his success rate as a passer is up, which are both positives. But his interception rate has risen for the second consecutive season. The 2023 No. 1 pick is averaging just 5.6 yards per attempt, the worst mark in the league for any full-season starter. Offensive line injuries haven't helped, but Young has only sevendeep completions all season, forcing the Panthers to either rely on big runs by Rico Dowdle or dink-and-dunk down the field with their passing attack. Young has the fourth-worst off-target rate in the NFL on passes that aren't deep attempts, though, making it difficult for Carolina to sustain drives with steady completions. After the season, the Panthers will need to decide whether they want to pick up Young's roughly $25.6 million fifth-year option for 2027, which will become fully guaranteed in the process. While that's not an exorbitant sum for a quarterback, I'm not sure Young's play would support that choice. If Carolina does decide to pick up the option, he will have a meaningful role on the 2026 roster, either as the unquestioned starter or at least as the favorite to win the job. If Carolina declines the option, Young's future probably will be elsewhere. He might be given a fourth year to prove himself and play well enough to earn an extension, as Daniel Jones did after the Giants declined his fifth-year option in New York, but the coach and general manager who paid so much to acquire Young in the first place aren't in the building anymore. The Panthers could trade Young to another team, bring in a new starting QB and move Young into a backup role, or (most likely) acquire someone to compete with Young in training camp next summer.
