Just cause you have money doesn't make you greedy. Just cause you don't have money doesn't make you giving either. Either way he's definitely hard headed and doesn't like to admit he's wrong. We're about to see how far his narcissistic traits run as well. Because keeping Rhule the fool is looking more and more foolish. 

If Tepper gets rid of Rhule it can go a long way...because i honestly believe he wants to win. He just doesn't know HOW to go about doing it and cant admit his mistakes. He wants to be successful quickly and is definitely more assertive in that aspect then JR was.

people were so quick to escort JR out the the door, they creamed their pants when Tepper bought the team. be careful what you wish for.  

Its one thing if JR just needed to step down because his time ran its course, but with the allegations attached to him he had to go. The speed at which he was pushed out justifies that alone.

Tepper talked so much smack when he got the team.  "All I want is wins"  He talked about building a winning culture around here but the only culture he's building is Detroit South.  It's embarrassing.

Firing Rhule so soon would ruin his ego that he always makes the right decision.   I think deep down he wants to let him go but then he would have to face scrutiny from the media as to why so soon. 

I think he hatss having to address that issue.

The way you win is finding experience and creating a good FO. That went out the window when he let Rhule have full control. JR built a great FO but just had terrible choices for GMs. That's been proven with what the Bills put together with our former coaches and staff. Tepper needs to let Fitt be a GM and a HC be a head coach. The rest will fall in place.

I dont see where he is not letting Fitt be a GM...the problem from what i am seeing is that Fitt is still deferring to Rhule because his control was already in place. This is the issue when you bring in a coach then a new GM later. It never works,  just like gettleman and Rivera. The GM should always be put in place first then let them hire a HC.

This is like when you have been at something a long time, and your new boss is green. But the boss is headstrong, having had prior success in his prior positions which has elevated them to the New role he now inhabits. Which is not the same game he was in but that doesn’t matter to him he has succeeded at everything. He will on this. 

As things come up, you pretty much know what is going to result from a given course of action, because you learned the hard way.

But you can’t criticize the boss’ plan if it is not right. Keep doing that he won’t want you around. 
So the bottom line is you have to tread water waiting for the boss to figure it out. This is a process that consists of a hundred more similar scenarios. 
Unless the new boss has so much talent and potential that you know it will pay off, it is a crappy way to make a paycheck. 
 

This is the football people with Tepper (it is also the fans).

Down the chain, it is likely the pro guys with the college guys.

      Post Draft Luke and JJ Podcast

      By GamecockSmitty4 · Posted

      Here’s a summary of the JJ and Luke podcast transcript. Opening / Bryce Young Fifth-Year Option     •    JJ: Breaking news — Panthers picked up Bryce Young’s fifth-year option at $25.9M, guaranteed, coming in 2027. Combined with his 2025 salary of ~$6M, that’s $31M over two years — called it a “no-brainer.”     •    Luke: Enthusiastic about the move. Highlighted Bryce’s improving TD/INT ratios (11/10 → 15/9 → 23/11) and the value of entering year three with Dave Canales. Noted $25M is a bargain relative to the $60M top of market. Luke’s Personal Update — Charlotte Christian Football     •    Luke: Working with Charlotte Christian school football program, which hired a new head coach. Coaches include Greg Olsen, Luke, and Greg’s dad Chris Olsen (a New Jersey State coaching Hall of Famer).     •    JJ: Jokingly quipped that Charlotte Christian’s coaching staff is “the world’s greatest” — a Fox analyst, a Hall of Famer, and the best Panthers RB ever — all coaching middle school football.     •    Luke: Praised Chris Olsen’s deep football knowledge spanning decades and his ability to connect with kids. Round 1, Pick 19 — Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia     •    JJ: Panthers were on the clock and submitted their pick almost immediately — a sign of confidence and preparation. Freeling is 6’7”, 320 lbs, played in the SEC in a pro-style system.     •    Luke: Loved the pick. Emphasized you can never have too many quality offensive linemen. Noted Freeling’s size, athleticism, and arm length as key traits. Said the pick also reflects team’s philosophy of drafting great people, not just great players.     •    JJ: Noted reporter Darren Gantt compared Freeling favorably to Jordan Gross — bigger, heavier, and faster — as a potential franchise left tackle.     •    Luke: Pointed out that young players like Freeling still have physical development ahead of them, comparing the trajectory to Christian McCaffrey’s growth from age 20 onward. Round 2, Pick 49 — Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech     •    JJ: Panthers traded up from 51 to 49 (pick swap with Minnesota) to grab Hunter. Played audio from Panthers area scout Kaden McLuhan, who scouted Hunter.     •    Scout Kaden McLuhan (audio): Said Hunter’s size is immediately striking, and that everyone around him spoke glowingly about his character, energy, and love for the game.     •    Luke: Praised Hunter as a massive (6’3”, 320 lbs, ~34” arms) two-gap nose tackle who fits perfectly in the Evero defense. Compared his prospect profile to Akiem Hicks. Said having Derek Brown, Bobby Brown, Derrick Brown, Terson Wharton, and now Hunter creates varied body types that stress offensive linemen.     •    JJ: Noted Hunter ranked third among all prospects in run-stuff rate and sixth in interior pass-rush win rate — addressing a perception that he couldn’t rush the passer. Rounds 3–7 Highlights     •    Luke: Highlighted WR Brazle (3rd round, 6’4”, 437 speed, 1,000+ yards at Tennessee) as the vertical threat the offense needed. Also praised OL Sam Heck (5th round) as a technically sound player whose “short arms” caused him to fall but who has proven himself.     •    Luke: Mentioned CB Will Lee (6’1”, 33” arms) fits the Panthers’ DB prototype — big, long corners.     •    Luke: Praised S/LB hybrid Zaki Wheatley (5th round, 6’3”) as a big nickel similar to Trayvon Merek.     •    Luke: Excited about the linebacker competition between Devin Lloyd, Trevvin Wallace, and Claudin Cherless.     •    JJ: Noted Panthers had the #1 “steal/overreach” rating in the entire draft — drafting players lower than consensus big boards projected. Around the League     •    Luke: Admitted being “a little jealous” that the Miami Dolphins drafted LB Jacob Rodriguez (Luke’s favorite LB in the draft). Has personal connections to Miami’s coaching staff (Jeff Hafley, DC Shawn Dugen — a childhood teammate).     •    Luke: Also noted Miami’s selection of OT/G Kaden Proctor out of Alabama, who will likely move to guard. League Trends — Bigger Tight Ends / 12 & 13 Personnel     •    JJ: Observed the NFL saw its highest run rate in ~11 years (~52%) and a notable pivot toward big blocking tight ends in this draft.     •    Luke: Explained the cyclical nature of NFL offense/defense evolution — as defenses get smaller to match spread offenses, teams counter with bigger personnel (12/13 formations), which then forces defenses to get bigger at the nickel/“big nickel” spot. Called it an ongoing arms race.
