Hard to believe that Tepper did not get his fill of being embarrassed long before now. He has turned this team into a joke and it will be tough to recover from this.

A little part of me enjoys watching him fail. The last thing the Carolinas needed was some arrogant douche from Pittsburgh buying the Panthers but here we are. Charlotte FC is probably going to be an even bigger joke and I’m not even being hyperbolic

I think as the offseason goes on, it's only going to become clearer that Rhule should have been let go.

Bit late for that now, though.

Tepper repeating his mistake of keeping Rivera a year too long all over again.

And Hurney...

Speaking of which, some guy on Twitter told Josh Klein that there was a stipulation in the team's sale contract that Marty had to be kept for two years.

Don't know if Twitter guy is in a position to know such things (kinda doubt it) but it's an interesting thought.

Hurney was the bigger mistake IMO.

No disagreement there - they both should have been gone after 2018. The whole sequence of events from end of 2018 to now is just head-scratcher after head-shaker.

Would somewhat explain why he kept him around. I’m not sure why Tepper would’ve agreed to that and it could hurt the Panthers in the long run.

I think that was reported/speculated when the head scratching was going on about why Hurney was still around.  I doubt we'll ever know.  That sort of stipulation is probably not as unusual as people would think.

The question I have if it is true is why fire Rivera before Hurney, even if Rivera did not have such a stipulation?  Tepper did recognize that the organization was a mess, and if you were saddled with the GM for two years and have questions about whether he was part of the reason for the mess or just a victim of it, why let him have a say in who the coach is until you figure that out?

The reason for publication was to let Rivera get a leg up on searching for another HC job, but I'd probably have held onto him for another year and unload them both, assuming Rivera was not going to pull a rabbit out of his hat.  

Both had to go, and until the triggers on both barrels could pulled, I miss the point of pulling one and letting the other poison the new coach.

Then again, I don't own an NFL team so I guess the question is moot.

      Bryce Young will have a Brees career arc. I doubt it will be with the Panthers.

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      JC not this ish again.  Brees: 80,000 career passing yards 5 seasons of 5,000+ yards 10 seasons of 30+ TD passes Career completion percentage of 67.7% 37 games where he threw 4 TDs.  Best WRs were Colston, Thomas, Cooks, Lance Moore and TE Jimmy Graham/ Shockey. The only first rounder was Shockey (and Bush but he was a RB). Thomas was a stud... drafted with the 47th pick. That was the highest picked WR he threw to. 47th. Graham was a stud. Shockey was a stud. The rest of the receivers would have been jags on most other teams. Brees never had a first round WR to throw to.  Colston never even made a pro bowl. Oh, and no spygate to benefit from.  Prime Brees was UNBEATABLE in the dome. A bad day for Brees was 2 TDs. He was a 4d chess grand master.  Brees has a wallet that probably says bad mf’er. Bryce has a goofy ass backpack.  Listen, Drew Brees put up unreal numbers throwing to mostly jags in an era that highlighted running the ball, the receivers could get mugged and QBs got lit the f up on the regular without penalty. Hell, they went so far as to make a tv segment (jacked up!!!) to applaud the violence of the game. He never even had a first round WR. Brees was a better QB than Peyton Manning. There, I said it. Bro is on the short list for best QB ever.  This is facts with some of my own personal opinion mixed in, but mostly facts.  Those who keep pushing this narrative, did y’all actually watch Brees play? His game is in no way similar to Bryce’s. Brees on this team is a deep playoff contender and Tet would look like prime megatron.  Im sorry y’all, I know I sound like a complete homer, but when I hear hyperbole that is insultingly obtuse, it gets under my skin.

      Moved to 4-3?

      By Moose Hoover · Posted

      No, surely not. He's at least 4-9 if not 5-0!

      That's cool but he should really get some help with producing these.  The content is good.  But it's like he's filming a 90's CRT computer monitor with his cell phone camera inside of his bathroom.
