He wasted an entire season in 2023 because he couldn’t admit the obvious. 

I think he kept a low profile early in the season figuring out the best way to address it, plus the rock hill debacle probably took his attention away a bit.

He may have just suffered from a bad sense of timing rather than reluctance in admitting the obvious.

I can say that I am at least interested in the team again. For the first time since 1995, I went without watching the Panthers every Sunday last season because I was so pissed at how Tepper ran this team into the ground. He should have gotten rid of Rhule at the end of the previous season but instead left us stuck with crappy football to start off. Firing the idiot was a start, and the moves the team has made this offseason at least give me hope that it is headed in the right direction. Even if we aren't world beaters this year, I will watch again simply because effort has been made to improve the team by hiring real coaches and letting Fitt do his job without interference from the clueless moron and his "brand".

Most of us have been pissed off and very negative of the sh#t happening with the team since he took over. He has made some huge hiring mistakes that have cost this team dearly.

He appears to have learned to hire the right people and to actually let them make the important decisions. Getting out of the way and allowing the experienced football people to do their thing is paramount to having success.

Thumbs up to the changes happening and to the man for having the foresight to let it happen.

I guess we will see what happens, right? 

His soccer team is hot garbage right now. No guarantee football won't end up the same way. I have my doubts.

The biggest positive for me is that he let the football people run the coaching search, right down to abstaining from the final vote.

He's also publicly admitted that he came in thinking he could change everything and revolutionize the game but has now learned that he wasn't as football smart as he thought he was.

His role these days seems best described as questions and suggestions, but not decisions.

As long as it stays that way, I'm good.

I've said the whole time that people were being too hard on him.

Everyone wanted to have an owner that was hands off, hires his football people and let's them do their thing, which is exactly what he did.  It sucks that it didn't work out the first few years, but beyond pushing them to be in on trades for Stafford and Watson, he's been a very hands off owner from the football side of things.  

His mistake was putting that trust in Rhule, you can be mad all you want at giving him one too many years, but that's not enough to make him a bad owner.

Trusting the wrong people is one of the worst mistakes any owner can make.

It was the same mistake that Jerry Richardson made. Unfortunately, Richardson never learned (or acknowledged) how wrong he was.

Tepper has at least admitted to his failures and seems to be working to fix them.

I'll take that.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
