Panthers roster moves made by Rhule and Fitterer are starting to pay off under Wilks

This: "As Tepper considers all of his options for the GM and head coach spots in the next few weeks and months, he shouldn’t completely dismiss the growth that has happened since mid-October. Whether that means that Fitterer and/or Wilks are retained is another story, but at least Tepper knows the team has some legitimate talent to move forward with if he decides to go in a different direction or retain his two top decision-makers."

Propaganda-ish.

Kaye is about as far away from a propaganda type person as anyone I've seen. 

Hell, he's been more than willing to call out negatives regarding both the team and its ownership. It's refreshing to see.

He and Ellis Williams are as good a coverage team as The Observer has had on staff.

So the interim HC who is trying to stay in the NFL is using the guys the very bad HC brought in and wouldn't use and any of this is surprising? Didn't Saturday win his first game coaching at any level in the NFL?

Wilks deserves his due for the good he has done but he is also showing why he shouldn't be considered for the long term job. Friterer is a whole other conversation and no one is sure if it is even worth having until Tepper shows he is at least intends to interview GM candidates. I noticed there was no mention of the Sam trade by Friterer lol.

Fluff peice at best and very propagandish.

I would give that distinction to back-in-the-day Gantt (even though he arguably went too far to be negative). Even Gantt now still tells it like it is working for the team. I never got a vibe that he was trying to sell an idea. Here, I get that vibe. That being said, that doesn't make Kaye or Williams bad reporters.

    • So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk. 
    • Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
