Are there any examples of owners who had a terrible start and then were able to turn things around...meaning make smart football decisions? You know what I mean here

Pegula in Buffalo 

Benson in NO

Haslam sorta changing tune in Cleveland.

Benson bought the team in 1985 and the Saints sucked until Payton outside of a few Dome Patrol years.

If it takes Tepper 21 years to find a good HC then just fug my poo up.

I made a thread on it a while ago but there is a learning curve. Not all is lost.

You will probably see it with the Broncos in a few years because to in some ways even with their loaded roster

Jerry Jones is the exception because if he were In the salary cap era they would have struggled just like the Panthers.

Then here’s hoping Tepper catches on sooner rather than later.

Im just disproving the sentiment around here that once things are bad they are always bad.

I agree with you, but if it takes a long time I hope Tepper takes a "throw poo at the wall and see what sticks" approach rather than "stick by regimes that are clearly flatlining" approach.

Unfortunately to me, it looks like he's taking the latter.

Pegula hired Rex Ryans as his first HC. He was smart enough to fire him after two .500 seasons though, and hired McDermott from us soon after. I'm sure fans up in Buffalo were screaming that Ryan didn't have enough time to get things together like we have with Rhule on the Huddle.

Yeah if Rhule gets to do it with QB's and his OC, why doesn't Tepper do it with the HC? It's the only area where he can use the power of being super rich since the players have a cap limit. Either way might as well wait til next year to find a new HC and hope Rhule doesn't trade away the entire 2023 draft for Jimmy G

He's using his money to buy soccer teams that nobody in the CLT area will care about.

Very seldom does it happen. Tepper would be in great position if he would just sit back, shut up, and sign checks. Coincide that with kicking Rhule to the curb he would be making a instant turn around. He's got a great front office with Fitterer and Morgan, just fall back and let them do their jobs.

      Jaire Alexander Released

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      The #Panthers explored the possibility of adding Jaire Alexander, but there was never an offer made, a league source told @theobserver.   https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/1935436577649401872?s=46

      Young, been named Top Riser for 2025

      Yes I agree, the future RT could easily be christ. When he shocking re-signed here for the cheap, he said part of the reason was the OL coaching staff.  I've already thought too much about 2026. The RT has all the options, including resigning Motown. I was never a big fan, but he's solid and peptides and stem cells can fix a gippy knee. If he makes it though this year and wants to return, why not for 2 years 16 million?? Or like you said give the job to Christ or draft your RT...... that I feel is the best current method. With both OGs in the 20 million per cap range and Icky......ooooooooooo boy he could be the first 30 million per OLmen in NFL history. That's a huge portion of cap space for the OL, which I agree with, but in order to offset those 20 and 30 million deals... you need cheap rookie contracts. (unless Motown would take a huge pay cut and whoever the C will be).  This is the deepest OL I can recall in Panthers history.  I believe Morgan should try and trade either Kingston or Zavala.  I didn't even talk about Yosh, Tarquin, or Walton. Yosh is same age as christ and why not him as RT after good swing tackle years? Tarquin is a UDFA on the prayer program, 150,000 in guarantees and why not him in 2026? Walton seems to be a OL coach favorite, he followed the Tampa Bay staff here after 2 years there and add in one year here, he's stuck around for some reason. I think they need to spend very light on RT and Panthers have lots of options, I love it.
