Tepper may be seeing the 7 year $60 million contract he's paying Rhule. Maybe he's willing to give Rhule another year or mayber he hasn't decided what to do yet. Instead of bashing the owner of the team we support, support.

Tepper eating the remaining $50M is the financial equivalent of me attending a Panthers game with decent seats and having a couple of beers in the stadium. Not exactly something he's going to feel a hit from.

True, if you could also write that game off as a business expense. 

Most people can't comprehend how little 50m is to someone like Tepper.

Chances are Dave makes more off his investments on any given day than what Matt's 7 year contract is costing him.

I’m going on the assumption that Dave has no plans of firing Matt this year. His comments about it could take five years makes me think this.

So as he has watched us go from 3-0 to 5-8, has watched Sam Darnold be everything he was in NY, has watched an o-line more resemble a pee-wee team than professionals and has watched a defense with some players seeming to quit…

What is he seeing that nobody else here sees? What is it that would make him think another year would be any different?

Any would be candidates for the Panthers head coaching job are following the situation in Carolina. Tepper committed to a rebuild. If Tepper fires Rhule before it is perceived he (Rhule) had a fair opportunity any quality candidates might be hesitant to show interest. These last games are important not just for the score, but the effort of the players.  That may be the difference in Rhule’s future.

The man is not clueless…he is worth $11 billion, you don’t get that way being clueless

i assure you he is not happy losing the way we are, and he wants to win more than anyone

Running a financial hedge fund doesn't necessarily translate to football. The man seems clueless on how to run a winning football organization.

Oh I know I can tell since he took over team. All he ever wanted was a soccer team, tell me different.

Are you seriously suggesting that Tepper spent over 2 billion dollars to by an NFL team as some sort of grand scheme that would eventually lead to his final dream of owning an MLS franchise? And now, having done so he doesn't care/ has no use for his NFL team?

Lololololololol

Some of you are dumb as fuging rocks.

Everyone should be fired for passing on Justin Fields or Mac Jones. Even with Darnold on the roster it was VERY dumb passing on a rookie QB. Instead they will pay Sam Darnold $18m next season to be on a different team.

It's real hard to be a fan of this team after all the dumb sh*t they did.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
