Protect the Bank? More like Sell the Bank. The Panthers are 15-25 at home since Tepper bought the team.

Trending trash, maybe. But it’s not like John Fox and Ron Rivera inherited ideal situations either. Fox inherited a 1-15 team and Rivera inherited a 2-14 team. Rhule by contrast inherited a team that was 2 seasons removed from a playoff appearance. 

Dude, this team was circling the bowl when he bought the team. It's still a steaming pile of turds and doesn't look to change anytime soon. It starts at the top.

The only move that he's made that I've liked since he got here was remedying his largest F up from before...firing Rhule.

Somehow almost every single decision he's made has been the wrong one.

I've often said that I'd rather gather up 100 random people to lead this country vs. the politicians that we have in place...I feel the same about the owner of the Panthers.

IMO, you could take just about any person on this Earth that has watched or played football ever in their life, make them the owner of the Panthers and they couldn't have F'd up any worse than Tepper has so far.

That's hard to accomplish, and he was a minority owner in the past...

NOT defending Rhule here, but the team he inherited wasn't 2 seasons removed from a playoff appearance. Pretty much all of our core players from 2017 were gone/done by the time Rhule got here. Cam, Olsen, TD, Luke, Peppers, KK, Star, CJ, Bradberry, Kalil, Turner, Norwell, Stewart

Would you say the roster was in better shape in 2001 and 2010?

There were almost the same amount of assets on the roster in 2019 as there is now! The defense is marginally more talented but it's really the same!

Different teams under different circumstances.  I do not remember all of the circumstances that led to those past teams demise.

The measuring stick is your opposition this season.  We do not measure up. We have a few pieces sure. And I do mean few. One critical piece is still illusive and not looking to magically appear anytime soon. Theres just not talent enough to crawl out of the nfl cellar. That doesn't even take into account the coaching disadvantage we have to overcome.

But like every season the team will be different next season. Will they measure up or will they need more talent.  I think you know the answer.

      WR drops

      To be fair, I kind of like Bo but he was BAD this past weekend.

      What I noticed was Tmac running free on deep routes a lot. Can we just get PJ or Hooker to throw go routes on every play for the rest of the season? It would be more exiting than this current mess.

      Week 2 - Panthers @ Cardinals (practice tweets, news articles, videos, etc)

      By Icege · Posted

      We're all aware of the frustrating Week 1 for Carolina, but there's reasons to see Arizona as a possible get-right game. While this will be Zona's home opener (requiring the team to travel out west), they were barely able to hold on to a lead against the hapless Saints who got a chance to tie the game up with 2min left that ended at the ARI 18. Kyler Murray was 21/29 with 2 passing TDs but for only 163yds (5.6yd AVG) and a QBR of 50.9 (RTG 108.8). He was also sacked five times for 33yds. Meanwhile, Spencer Rattler went 27/46 and was sacked just once for 6yds. Kyler also carried the ball seven times for 38yds. James Conner struggled to get going (12 carries, 39yds) but Trey Benson had a good day thanks to a 52yd scamper (8 carries, 69yds). Arizona has weapons in MHJ and McBride, but the CBs have been playing well enough for McBride to be the true focus of the defense. MHJ had a good game though against the Saints, so hopefully Jaycee + Mike Jackson can disrupt that connection. The Cardinals also aren't a disciplined team... with an opportunity to put the Saints away they gave up a TFL and a holding penalty before having the field goal attempt blocked. Their OL suuuuucks at run blocking and got better pass blocking from their TEs in week 1 than they did from any OL except for Paris Johnson Jr. Isaiah Adams and Hjalte Froholdt especially had issues as did Jonah Williams. If the Panthers' revamped DL can't get pressure against them it might be worth giving the alarm a pull.
