Rhule is a salesman. Tepper is football illiterate. He understands the word 'Winning' and now 'Losing', that's all I have seen. The practice facility wasn't even a football decision, there are freaking colleges that have those and he looks to be turning it into some hefty profit. 

I would still guess it's his ego vs it being the contract. Or worse, maybe he liked Rhule because he saw himself in the young salesman and just doesn't want to do anything about it at this time. I really don't know yet, it's all on the table for me. None of it looks positive yet. 

Well keep in mind that Tepper doesn't come from a world where being smart or even knowing what you are talking about gets you to the top of the heap.

I mean, Bernie Madoff did it pretty effectively.

And Tepper tells everyone it takes 5 years to turn it around. It’s like he doesn’t even pay attention to this league 

He also said the league is set up for teams to go 8-8 and we haven't been 0.500 his entire time as owner.

JR had us as a winning and playoff team in the first two seasons.

Someone will be along shortly to tell you that David Tepper is the smartest man in existence.

Had he been put in charge of solving the pandemic, we'd all be happily frolicking outside in springtime conditions despite it being winter.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
