Per various reports, Tepper asks questions about the process and tries to make sure everybody is on the same page.

Those things are fine.

Overriding the people that you hired to do the job is not.

lol

You are so literal about everything.

If some GM that you aren't sure about, for example Hurney, is about to go off and sell the farm for somebody.  You stop it.  

You might fire him later, but there is nothing wrong with pulling rank.

Doesn't take much evaluation to look at a guy like Deshaun Watson and say "Hey, that guy's pretty good. Let's go get him." Draft prospects are a very different ballgame. Hell, everyone sucks at evaluating them. Some just suck worse than others.

It's not as simple as just saying "let's go get him". You also have to decide what resources you're willing to give up to do so.

If the football people don't think it's worth it, do you want the owner to override them?

If you're the guy with the least amount of football knowledge in the room, telling the guys who know better than you what to do is stupid.

This ^

Owners set direction, and honestly most owners are heavily involved in huge trades and top picks, especially if QBs are involved.  

What you don't want is some owner who doesn't know anything about player evaluation treating it as his fantasy team and making all of the draft picks, but there is no indication that Tepper is that.

If Darnold turns out the way I think, Rhule and company might be hoping it happens at some point because it can't keep being their fault they strike out on QBs.

Rodgers isn't coming to the NFC

would I take a 2 year run with Aaron Rodgers?  Sure. 

He has been to the post season 8 of the last 10 seasons.  One of the two that he didn't he was hurt and only played 7 games.    So basically, if he plays...you go to the postseason. 

And generally when Rodgers goes to the playoffs, you aren't one and done.   And Green Bay's roster around Rodgers hasn't been good.  So the argument we aren't built for Rodgers doesn't really fly....given GB hasn't been build for Rodgers to compete. 

So would I take him? Sure.  But it isn't realistic.   Better odds to win a Super Bowl renting Rodgers than whatever Rhule builds without him IMO.

But if your philosophy is "coach, GM, and QB" and they keep bringing you trash at QB at some point you either get more involved in that QB input or you find new solutions at coach and GM.

You have, as long as I've seen you post on here, been dead set against owner interference.

Are you now in favor of it if it gets the player you want?

(or more specifically, gets us away from the player you didn't want)

football knowledge isn't the same as setting the direction for a organization.

That's the kind of dumbsh-t semantics argument I expect from somebody like Sizzlebuzz.

Football decisions should be made by football people for football reasons.

here again, you are thinking too black and white.

We aren't talking about the owner doing player evaluation, but if an owner comes in and gives the coach a 6 year deal and says build the team for long term success that is ok.  Our moves last year were not long term anything.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
