Tepper is clearly focused on MLS soccer and a new stadium and not...

The Panthers!

Hi Dave, I know you or your cronies are reading this. 
 

It’s painfully obvious that Tepper’s 5 year plan is centered around 2 things:

1) establishing a MLS fan base 

and

2) building a new stadium 

 

...building a winning NFL franchise is 3rd in his list. All he cares about is doubling his revenue by adding a second sport.

That’s why he fired our coach? Dumb$ass

No. You just need to be more patient.  There's nothing more he can do until the season is over. That's when you'll see him get to work on overhauling this team.   

Everyone that wanted some magic bullet to fix this team mid-season is/was being unrealistic.  That's not something any team can do.  Heck, he already showed his hand by firing Rivera.  Don't fret, changes are coming.

I still think letting Rivera go mid season was a pecker head thing to do...

No, it was actually a respectful and classy thing to do.  He had already made the decision to move on, so rather than go behind his back, he made the move. 

And the season was already over, so despite how things are looking now, there really wasn't any on-field reason to hang on to him for a few meaningless weeks.

For real. Tepper made it clear to Ron he was gonna be honest. He's looking for a new coach while Jerry Jones is doing the same behind the back of Jason Garrett.

I really doubt he doesn't care about winning. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt through this process.

However I will say the new stadium talk is extremely cringe considering the timing. If I were him I would really not bring that up. Just thinking about it now leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

What do you expect him to do right now? Let's just please wait after this offseason once he finally chooses his own coaching staff.

pie to you. 

I am curious with what the “fan base” expectations were after during River.   I think a lot of people just wanted him gone and to tank.  That is what is happening.  Is the team not losing correctly?   Did some folks think the tam would have restored vigor to play competitively every week?
 

Rivera was known as a guy that could keep a team together.   Prior to him leaving they were still trying but just not really that competitive as a team.   He probably still had the locker room but the delivery on the field was downright poor. 

i think Ron’s departure led to a vacuum and there is no leadership from the lame duck coaching staff in place.  
 

For tepper to rebuild he needs In Place and I don’t think he was planning to have all that done prior to week 17.

What the hell is he supposed to do right now? Hire some scrub coach because he's available or wait until guys who are actually worth hiring become available after playoffs?

Same with the GM search... Top prospects won't be available until after the draft.

So, hot take guy....what should he be doing?

      How did this “innovative” narrative start with Canales? Just because he’s young? He truly wants to run the ball and nothing Tampa did last year was all that creative. Mike Evans ability to win 1 on 1 does wonders for an offense as a whole

      Initially, I wanted Stroud but I thought the trade up meant that, whoever they chose, it was for a reason.  There was no pressure to do anything for the entire scouting team to do other than investigate every aspect of the top 3 candidates.  Stroud had his question marks, and I think it is possible that he falters this year.  Bryce had a much worse situation here in Carolina because we neglected the OL, traded our #1 WR, did not pick WRs well in the draft, traded our pro bowl RB, and seem to disregard the TE position altogether.  Bozeman was not a good fit and we relied on an improved OL in 2022 to suggest that we were set there when we were far from it.  Fitterer had no vision, no grasp of talent, and everyone in the front office and on the coaching staff were pretending to be gurus.  Our coaching staff was a group of men earning a lifetime achievement paycheck.  It all goes back to the years of neglect for the OL.  My theory?  If Stroud had come to Carolina, he would be as mocked and ridiculed as Bryce Young.   No, he does not have a cannon.  Chad Pennington was a weak-armed QB who had success and would have been even better if it were not for injuries.  Smarts is important at QB, and so are mechanics.  Before you can address Young's mechanics, he needs an OL, Running game, and weapons. We were not really able to run play action from under center for a few reasons--play action is not effective when you have to pass the ball--other than that, the QB must turn his back to the LOS for about 1.5 seconds.  When the QB has less than 2.5 seconds to pass the ball, that eliminates that part of the play book.  Heck, even the run option is minimized when there is immediate facial pressure.  SO those who want to talk about happy feet, bouncing, etc--they are symptoms of the problem, not the problem.  A weak arm?  Well, Young's arm is between Chad Pennington and Joe Montana--closer to Joe.  His are is not as weak as some think--but he has issues with the deep ball. When you are reacting to the defense and quickly have to pass, then that takes away the strength because you don't have the base to get power behind it.  I still wish we had taken Stroud, but we have Young and if you toss him out before giving him support, you are not wise, unsmart, not unfoolish, and rather elite in your failure to attain mediocrity.  Expect growth.  How much? Nobody knows.
