Tepper says 5 year minimum for Rhule.

Lol, Tepper still makes $ on this franchise and the buildings by using them for not just the Panthers, but other events. Hes not hurting on long build or floundering around. Well as long as enough tickets are sold and don't go truly unsold from the Panthers (attendance be damned) he won't hurt. Now maximizing $ on game day sales, yeah that's hurting with the stadium not being full, and that's on a poo product the Panthers currently provide and not all opposing teams are going to travel enough to fill up the stadium with panther fans staying home.

I am still a little perplex what Rhule/anyone has said that keeps Tepper on board for 2 more after 2022. That's crazy pants. If they regress the next 2 years is he really going to give a crazy 5th year. Heck if he get another vet QB and again regresses or treads water, another year after a 3rd wrong QB eval?

I'll grant Rhule this: his D progressed thru year 1 and again from year 1 ending thru most of year 2. Now part of that was it regressed from before Rhule to his 1sr half of year 1 (one of the worst in history). Also the offense flamed out hard and regressed from year 1 to year 2, would say St was pretty poor all 3 years too. 2 steps back for every step forwards gotta stop. He needs to atleast maintain on D or progress on all fronts this year or why keep the this poo going.

This is counter cultural for typical management. When dudes as smart as Tepper do things that are patient and counter cultural….it usually pays off. 

Has Tepper’s way been patient?   He keeps saying Rome wasn’t built in a day when his record is referenced. 

But Tepper isn’t actually patient.  Part of the problem IMO.   Which has lead to poor decisions.

Well nothing other than 'i just fired him' would have made most of you happy. 
 

- Some positives I take from that statement is that we dont need to reach for a QB.
- Rhule and Fitt can draft their board without drafting for the short term 

If we suck this year, Rhule will be gone. But as an owner you need to give assurances to your people that their jobs are safe until THE MOMENT you fire them or else they male dumb decisions.

Yeah, it's time to revert back to my pre-Peppers fandom. General NFL fan with favorite players I like to watch more so than favorite teams with a casual interest in the Panthers as the local team but with nothing concrete to solidify myself as a true Panthers fan. I mean, that's basically where I am. Tepper has stripped everything I loved away from the Panthers so yeah... that's kinda where I'm at. I don't anticipate watching a whole lot of Panthers games moving forward. I'll pay attention to see if there any signs of change or evolvement but I'm not expecting it.

Very good - can you officially be stripped of your moderator role (if you still have it) of a Panthers fan board since you won’t be paying much attention to the Panthers?

The Huddle big brains really think Tepper publicly trashing the head coach and QB of his football team is conducive to building a functional football organization lol.

Lol exactly.  I’m amazed at how dumb people can be.

    • Boy we agree on the dink and dunk. I don’t want to watch that kind of football.  I mean okay if you win with it, it could be tolerable but it feels claustrophobic, constrained, limited, boring.  But for some reason I love a smash mouth heavy run game that wins the LOS and gets the backs to the second level.  
    • I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.
