Would you preferred Ben Navarro bought Panthers in 2018 ?

I don't begrudge Tepper's billions, almost all billionaires money was gotten via someone else's money or sweat [old money & new money]. I do question his ignoring history in his football decisions. Coming in with experience from the part ownership of the Steelers, he ignored the fact that they had GMs that were in the better half of the NFL. Firing Riveria & keeping Hurley belied the fact that RR had some modest success  with both Hurley & Gettleman. Hurley should have been replaced in the first month after buying team. I am not saying he should have kept RR, but relying on Hurley with his history of non-success is questionable at best. Could he have fixed RR's flaw of over-loyalty  to some people despite their short-comings?                    If you recall prior to the first draft under Tepper, he in public stated that the draft should be D-line, O-line, & back-up QB. Of course Hurley [as the perfect yes-man] did exactly that. Burns in the first, [continuing his first round good-fortune], Little in the second [trading up to over-draft what should have been at best a late 3rd or 4th rounder], & Grier in the 3rd [a UDFA at best despite having two what has been proven to be two of the better back-ups on the roster [Allen & Heinke]]. The last thing as an owner you need is a GM or HC who runs a team that agrees and acts by what you want not what is best for the team. Tepper should have seen Hurley's yes-man antics & fired Hurley the first day after the draft.                                                   Then he piled on more bad decisions by hiring Rhule, giving him a huge contract, & total control over the team. You can count on one hand how many times this worked in the past 30yrs [college coach, contract, or control [take your pick].                                                                                                                                      There's on old adage: you don't give a $20 hooker a C-spot because she talks about how big you are [Hurley] or propose to her because she convinces you how good you are in the bedroom [Rhule]
