Jesus what a sour crowd. How people aren’t appreciative of there being another sports franchise here and putting Charlotte on the map is beyond me.

I'm not a Charlotte guy. I'm  a panthers fan. Panthers have an owner who is now, at most, only half invested in the team I've been a fan of for over 2 decades....a team that hasn't had a winning season since he bought it and which seems to be not getting better, in fact in a crappy situation with a joke of a head coach that most people don't understand why he's still employed and a coach that the owner hasn't come out and publicly endorsed after word got out the owner was embarrassed by. 

Sorry if I don't share your enthusiasm for "sport" and love of city.

I appreciate Tepper's efforts to secure a MLS franchise for Charlotte and hope the team does well.

Having said that, the crown jewel of Charlotte's sports teams is his NFL franchise, an organization that has been terribly mismanaged since he bought the team.

Here's to hoping Tepper now focuses his attention on hiring a competent NFL executive to finally get the Panthers house in order.

Think of it this way...

Perhaps if he does want to focus more of his personal attention on the soccer team, he'll leave someone else running the Panthers.

If it's the right person, that'd be a good thing.

    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.  
    • Will be interesting to see how they come out tonight. The Boston game seemed to open the flood gates of media attention. And it’s not just that they’re playing well, in some instances they are getting compared with all time greats. This is still a young team, and it would be easy for an immature team to lose some focus, buy into their own hype, and think they can coast bit. The Heat are a middle of the road team without their leading scorer. There is no big dragon to slay, no big statement to make. I think we’ll learn a lot tonight: are they young but mature, or do they still have a ways to go mentally?
    • Panthers North for the win. Good luck to him. Great guy, hated to see him leave here, but he's about to work with the best QB he's ever worked with (at least on a regular basis).
