Are we sure that it was Teppers decision to do that? 

I don't think it was. Signing Cam was but moving on from Teddy I do not believe it was Tepper, that was probably Rhule and Brady. 

Tepper didn't make the decision to move on from Bridgewater.

What he did do was make disparaging comments about Bridgewater that made it extremely difficult to keep him.

It also signaled that the owner would very much be involved in approving the talent on the Panthers' roster in spite of insisting that he was leaving the decision making up to his GM and head coach.

Wrong.

The guy with 438,621 posts insists that Tepper leaves all of this to the "football people"...

...period.

[PS.  He knows a lot of folks who know "insiders" and they fill him in so he should know the truth.]

Teddy is done, he just can't throw it anymore, and unlike Cam, he can't move around either

 

Thread aged very badly

It was a bad thread to begin with. 

It should have been "How much did the decision to move on from Cam and sign Teddy cost the Panthers? in which the answer is a lot.

Fair enough. I think the severity changed in the given situations though. 

 

He was annoyed with Teddy. He was livid with Darnold. 

 

Just shows how much influence this owner has over the team.

      That might balance out because apparently the Texans O-line is ass. He did manage to throw for almost 300 yards the last two weeks though.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      Don't forget that Rhule actually took Tepper's offer to the Giants and they balked. He was just seeking the big payday which should have been a red flag. I have no idea how much time Tepper spends within the Panthers building. I do know that he in the past has been too much involved. He supposedly held weekly meetings with Reich. Then after firing Reich Tepper he held a press conference where he did virtually all the talking and made it about himself. Before that Tepper went out of his way to bloviate to the press about how he spoke to Bryce Young months before the draft and directly told him he wanted him to be a Panther. Then he went to the well of his selling point about Bryce being a point guard and we wouldn't need to invest in elite weapons. The guy thinks and talks like he knows what he's doing. At the end of the day the franchise has been in the gutter in large part due to he and his wife's involvement. It is what it is. Appreciate the convo.

      Unlike most of you, I do not assume the FO thinks he is beyond repair.  For the first time since 2017 the Panthers have a chance to be in the playoffs. One more game will tie them for the most wins since 2018, 2 more wins will put them at 8 wins - the most in 8 years.  Hate all you want but a big part of that success has come from Bryce. He got them in the hole with Miami but he got them out of it as well and was a big part of that win. Against Dallas, he played very well throughout the game plus he converted on a 4th down in the final minutes putting them in FG range for the win. He may not have had a good game against the Packers but he did convert on two 3rd down conversions in the final minutes to help seal the win and of course the Falcons game was his best yet. Tepper likes him and they have a huge investment in him as well. You don't just throw that away unless you have something concrete lined up behind him - which I just don't see.
