David Tepper is searching for a head coach for the first time as the Panthers’ owner, and he opens up to @AlbertBreer about what he’s looking for in a coach (and more in this week’s Game Plan) http://go.si.com/feeNdOD

“I didn’t come in there and just buy a team, [thinking I knew what I was doing],” he said. “I didn’t know what the hell I was doing. My greatest strength—my greatest strength—is knowing how stupid I am and what I don’t know. I wanted to figure out what was going on and have a better idea of what should make a successful organization.”

...and some huddlers still want to question this guy and give advice on what decisions he should make.  i have zero doubt he will make this a winning organization in time.

great read, thanks for posting, OP

two threads died to discuss "insider" information LARPs.  this is straight from the horse's mouth and is right in line with what all the level-headed posters were saying - @WoahW @micnificent28 @MechaZain @mjligon

“Cam’s future is going to largely be up to how good he feels,” Tepper said. “That’s first. It’s actually an interesting question to me when there’s a lot of speculation on this because there should be no speculation on Cam one way or the other. If Cam’s healthy, he’s an elite player. So we all hope Cam’s healthy. And people will use an elite player because there just aren’t that many elite players in the league.

Really good find @TheSpecialJuan.

he maintained ambiguity in with me how the next head coach, incumbent GM Marty Hurney and a new personnel executive-to-be-hired would fall on the flow chart.

 Turns out, he will make one hire, with a title to be established later. 

Mr. Tepper, why did you keep Ron and Marty after 2018?

Quote

“I’d say the first year was total learning, the second year, getting a deeper understanding in figuring things out.”

Every single thread seems to be derailed by how one feels about Cam.

Pretty much. Tepper doesn't actually say anything new about Newton here either. it's just the same stuff we've already heard put a different way.

There are way more interesting things in this article than just that.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
