David Tepper is apparently too chicken poo to face the press in person and explain why he's keeping the WORST coach in the team's history.

After TWO seasons of only 5 wins each Rhule is being retained for a season 3.  No other Panthers coach with a record of 5 wins or less has ever been retained for an additional season.  

Tepper has done it twice.

Houston, we have an ownership problem.

Careful, I continue to get flamed for this opinion. 

Spoiler: 14 months ago, I got flamed for saying Rhule would never work out and that he was a clown.

This board is extremely reactionary but like I don’t really understand what Tepper is trying to do here. I’m not mad or upset I’m just like whatever. I don’t live in NC anymore so it means nothing to me for the franchise to move besides nostalgia. Tons of real world things to be mad about. But this is a full on mutiny of the fanbase and he knows this. This isn’t some shade of grey thing it’s very cut and dry. Rhule isn’t an nfl caliber coach. So what is his long play here? Turn your back on the fanbase to help facilitate a move to another location? I heard he wanted a new stadium. So is he gonna use that as leverage to move?

Wonder if Tepper is gonna try moving the team at some point. 

I mean the way things are headed he may not have a lot of people fighting for them to stay. Could end up like the hornets where the city was just like “peace, GTFO” and basically trade them for a different franchise

this is some pretty good tinfoil hat critical thinking you got going on here but honestly it wouldn’t be the first time an owner tried to piss off the fan base and city

I want a reporter to ask the following questions:

-You preach analytics but you gave cmac a record breaking when the data says RB's on their second deals are not worth it, what was your mindset with this deal?

 

-Can you explain the rush to sign the 2 lineman in the first HOUR of free agency?

 

-Can you explain your thought process of giving up so much capital for Sam Darnold when it appears your were clearly bidding against yourself?

 

-Can you explain your thought process in picking up the 5th year option of darnold needlessly?

 

-Can you explain your evaluation of Rashawn Slater and Micah Parsons? 

 

-Can you explain your hesitation in playing BRady Christenson even when your playoff chances were minuscule and the left tackle in front of him was clearly struggling?

 

 

I think those are fair questions that Fit, Rhule and Tepper should answer

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
