David Tepper and the Carolina Panthers: The Rhules of Engagement.

Yeah, I think there were some early voices rattling the "This is all Tepper's fault" saber. I know I was firmly on that bandwagon after Rhule didn't get dismissed in the offseason, which is where most of us jumped on board.

If he doesn't pull up from this nosedive in the offseason with a quality hire, this franchise will actually get worse. Mark my words, that is more than possible.

Tepper needs to take a giant step back from his hands on BS. The fact we were going so hard for Watson this offseason just shows how on the edge of the cliff to worse we still are as a team. 

I'm still hoping for a consultant to be brought in to hold his hand. I just don't know how much failure it takes to make him realize that. I'm really not impressed with the people he brought into the front office at this point.

The Carolina Panthers are a hot mess. Even glancing at them for a few seconds this season can show you that. However, going after a few low blows against an irrelevant and dead franchise is too easy. We have to go deeper (like a few inches deeper): We have to look at new owner David Tepper's reign.
 

Brutal but deserved. Ra-Ra homers need a reality check about the state of this franchise. They cope saying that "well Washington/Jax has worse owners!!!!!" as if that means absolutely anything.

Good video. The Jed York piece is spot on.... these guys come in like hot shots and then get grounded real fast. How they respond to that is what really matters.... I dont get the vibe of a Jerry Jones or Daniel Snyder... but these next few years are realy going to tell us if Tepper is the hotshot owner who got humbled, or is he a stubborn son of a bitch that just wont know how to run a football team.

Right now, my money is on the former.... mainly because of the things he said during his presser. There was a lot of admitting to his short comings and things he has learned.

 

The whole rock hill thing, both sides are at fault.. and in all honesty... thats the business people doing business things ... i could care less about that IF im trying to judge him as a football team owner. If I am trying to judge him as a business leader... I have a lot more research to do before im come out blasting.

That’s a shame. Guy makes good content. One of my favorite sports YouTubers. 

FlemLo Raps is good too if anybody hasn't seen his stuff.  He has a fair amount of Panthers content too.

e: his Rae Carruth deep dive is gutwrenching but excellent

    • The league would protect him.  The amount of poo Jerry Jones has had exposed and got away with?  The amount of poo Stephen Ross has got away with?  How long Dan Snyder got away with essentially fuging sex trafficking employees and poo???????  Taking down JR was a hit job.  You think the other 31 owners, especially the older ones aren’t blathering, blatant, ignorant ass, bigoted rich racists who have committed far worse things than Blue Jean Fridays?  The ones I named above have DEFINITELY did worse than what JR was accused of.  And do you think guys like Steve Smith would’ve been viewing him as a father figure if they felt that’s who he was?  JR pissed the league off with that last lockout situation and they made him pay.  They lined a new guy up to join their billionaire boys club in Tepper, and they prolly slid a pretty penny to Jonathan Jones to write the “expose,” to get JR out of here.  Again, all the owners I’ve listed above have been verified on record for doing worse poo, yet they’re still running their organizations, unquestioned.  They hand-picked Tepper long before JR was forced out, so he isn’t going anywhere.  Sadly.  fug the NFL.  (Also, to be clear, it’s always fug racism, bigotry, and sexual exploitation - not ever excusing it.  Just making the point that the NFL isn’t operating under this clear standard of justice applied to each and every case)
    • I was still in the throes of a contentious divorce and my job at the time had me work on Sundays.  At the beginning of the season I tried to still work around Sundays so I could see our games.  I think after Bryce came back from the benching, I said fug it.  First time in my life I intentionally didn’t watch our games, even through the Atlanta finale.  In the past, even if we didn’t live up to expectations, I would watch to still support and at least analyze player development, strengths and weaknesses, coaching, etc., but Bryce makes all of that a moot point, so I stopped watching. Again, this is asinine,  it if he is retained (still can’t believe this is even a possibility of a conversation due to how shitty our organization has become under Tepper), I will NOT watch next season until he is gone.
