Tepper doesn't believe in using outside consultants.

He made that quite clear during the hiring of both Matt Rhule and Scott Fitterer.

Right. Which is why I said we have to hope that he gets over himself. For rational people, seeing this straight trash and clusterfug on the field as a result of one’s own choice at least encourages a bit of thought/change.

Will it for Tepper? I don’t know but if it doesn’t, it really doesn’t matter what happens, this franchise is doomed.

Kinda wondering if he would like to rethink that position right about now.  He's proven he doesn't have any idea what he is doing and his instincts are almost exactly wrong.

But, it is his team to screw up as he wishes.

Also, if I remember correctly JR had the same feelings on consultants for 20 years and then changed his tune because he was surrounded by idiots. Hopefully Tepper catches on to the fact he’s not qualified and is here because he’s rich. And yes that will probably prove to be a challenge for him.

Given his ego, kinda doubt it.

See above.

Honestly, having him leave the job to Fitterer and Morgan is probably the best option right now.

It's Hurney all over again.

Blamed EVERYTHING on John Fox, ran him out of town, and then left that dumfug Hurney as GM.

Why keep a holdover, one of the most important pieces at that, of the previous regime when that regime was a total and complete disaster.

Just clean house, new GM, new coaching staff. Clean slate for a new regime.

Anyone that thinks Fitt is worth keeping go look at that Ian Thomas contract. Go look at how we gave up nearly an entire draft worth of picks for Mayfield, Darnold and Henderson.

Do people think good GM candidates are gonna be attracted to a team whose owner fired the last guy even though he didn't have power over the roster? 🤔

Tepper gives an unqualified college coach full roster control over a seasoned NFL personnel guy, then fires the personnel guy despite forcing him to work under the unqualified college coach, and we're expecting other people to want to work for this owner?

Yes.

There are only 32 NFL GM jobs in the world, any given year they are only a few open. 
Will an established, proven GM, who is currently in a GM position be willing to jump ship, maybe not, but there be plenty of “candidates” that will be willing to work for Tepper.

Lack of candidates will not be the issue, choosing the right one will be the issue, but that is the case for any HC or GM hire.  If there was a proven formula every ram would have a good HC and GM.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      The Carolina Huddle

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
