Still rebuilding?

Tepper strikes me as a results now kinda guy. Even when he was saying it was a 5-year process, I didn't really think he would be that patient. I think he expects a winning record in 2021 and playoffs thereafter. I also think no one in the building thinks Teddy is going to get us there. I don't sense any kind of panic, but I do think Rhule learns from his mistakes and knows he/Brady/whoever made one with Teddy and wants to quickly rectify that.

Biggest thing for me is that going after Stafford wasn't a "process" thing.

We reek of desperation right now. Desperation most often times results in poor decision making coupled with even worse decisions trying to mask the poor ones that were previously made (ie hanging on to Ron and Marty to long, signing TB, extending Shaq and Not Bradberry). 
 

Our owner, as a hedge fund manager, should know this.

Tepper may have talked the talk about being patient but we've shown borderline desperation at the QB position this off-season. The reality of Teddy being what Teddy has always been evidently really caught us off guard. I have no idea why, but as an organization we seem really shook by this.

I don't know what it is about this team sometimes. Many times us fans on a message board could've made better decisions that the ones that played out. Something about being here in Carolina raises the egos of everyone in charge and blinds them.

I have no idea how we missed the Teddy evaluation so badly. Many of us called it pretty much exactly how it would go because there was ample evidence available that Teddy was a low ceiling utterly risk adverse QB who somehow still has a pretty bad TD:INT ratio. He throws an average amount of INTs while throwing for a significantly below average number of TDs.

With Marty Hurney...

"This is gonna take a while, maybe up to five years. I ask you to trust the process."

Scott Fitterer takes over...

"We'll offer you the number eight overall pick, our fifth rounder and Teddy Bridgewater in exchange for Matt Stafford. What do you think?"

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
