I agree, I don't want Tepper to be crazy but at this point it's lining up to be a learning experience for him. It took Haslim more than a decade to offset his negative impacts.

I also see a very good chance that Rhule may run back to college anyways at the end of the year. The rest of this year is not going to be fun.

Rhule and staff are just not ready, they will probably succeed later from the experience in this failure.

It aint running away from all that money

The tax difference is huge and believe it or not a lot of people actually would prefer to live in Miami over Charlotte. 

It is a huge tax advantage for the super-wealthy...

...in fact, Appaloosa Management is headquartered on Washington Avenue in Miami Beach.  

I've lived in both places and much prefer Charlotte.  

I don't think it's the tax climate drawing Mr. W.I.O. to Miami...

...but rather the "lifestyle".

It would be an odd decision to leave a very high paying NFL job to go back to college but then again Rhule has never stayed anywhere long.

I have always sort of wondered if he just really wants to build and then bolt.

Also, places like Florida and Texas, with no state income taxes make up for said taxes in other ways.  Its not like they're just not gonna get that sweet, sweet tax money from you.  They have insanely high property taxes for instance.  In Texas, I own a ~400,000 dollar home and my monthly property taxes are like 600 dollars - a lot more than if they just took a normal income tax from me like when I lived in NC.

Eventually they are going to stop paying him and come after his money if they can't get a trade worked out. 

Or name him the starter and force him to make a choice...

...earn your money or get suspended without pay.  

Easy choice there...

nah, he only really bolted once and that was for a premier job.  Going from Temple to baylor is a no brainer.  Going from Baylor to the NFL is a dream

    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
