Tepper said he will be the tiebreaker if needed

I like that Tepper is agressive in choosing the right folks to build a winning organization , but I really don’t want him meddling in roster decisions or who we draft. I didn’t like hearing he may have to be the tiebreaker between Rhule and the new GM.

You have a couple of choices on that front. Either you give one guy full power or you step in yourself, but only when necessary.

In the past, the guy at the top was about always the GM, but more and more these days coaches have a higher level of influence. That's where you get guys like Matt Rhule who say they're not just about X's and O's.

The middle ground for me is having an owner who steps in when needed, but only if he's asked. I understand that he owns the team, but he should also understand that doesn't make him a smart football guy. He's the guy who hires smart football guys and lets them do their jobs.

So basically, stay out of the day to day stuff, but step in if your people can't come to a consensus.

And if your people hardly ever come to a consensus, find new people.

What do you suggest? Paper rock scissors two out of three?

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.

      Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
