The Carolina Panthers are owned by a Dan Snyder clone

Typical overreaction at this point.  If somehow this team wins the first 4 games these same types of fans will say we are superbowl bound.  Not sayin Tepper is a good or bad owner it is just way to early to know how this will play out.  Of course fans are not really know for rational thought most of the time as is evidenced daily here by the constant overreactions.

Aren't you the guy who had a major hard on for Gettleman? Not sure if your judgement is to be trusted. The verdict is still out on Tepper but at this moment a comparison to Snyder is laughable at best.

Tepper is basically Shahid Kahn IMO.  Maybe a slight upgrade.

Tepper just seems like a run of the mill bad owner so far. Snyder is one of the worst owners on pro sports history. Not saying Tepper won't get there, but he has a long way to go to earn Snyder comps.

Most owners start out terrible. Although it's not looking great the jury is still out as you said. Tepper would have to tank us for quite a while to get to Snyders record.

I don't see it. He may be too involved, but he's never gone out of his way to be in front of cameras, interviewed, nor has he pretended to be the GM in the draft room.

Not yet anyway. He's more involved than I care for.

Honestly, what does it take to be a good NFL owner?

Recognize your own limitations and hire good help.

Also, don't sexually harass your employees.

If you can do these things, your team will win more games than they lose.

This should be a pretty low bar for any multi-billionaire capable of tying their own shoe laces.

Someone has been drinking again. Ignore this hobo

Seems to be a lot of that going on today in these threads.  Is today "Take Your Bottle To Work Day" and nobody told me?

I've always said the job description for an NFL owner is to count money.  When they are done, count it again.  The NFL delivers it in box cars so it should keep them busy.   Not only is that all they have to do, it is all they should do.

Snyder is a "special case."  He gives sleazeballs a bad name.

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
