Dave Tepper has become a major asset for the Panthers

I appreciate the optimism, but Sheesh!  Could we at least wait until the team has had its first winning season under Tepper's ownership before anointing him a "major asset"?  Up until about a minute ago, Dave's time as the Panthers owner has been pretty much been a disaster.

I will say that David Tepper remains in the running for the "Most Improved NFL Owner of 2023".  So he's got that going for him.

He's admitted this directly.

That's fine - he still did it, and it was still incredibly obvious to a whole lot of people and incredibly stupid to actually move forward with. Words are words until they become actions and then results, and given the other stuff he's flopped on he's far from an asset at this exact point in time.

Wasn't meant to sound like I was absolving him.

Just pointing out that take is true because he said it himself.

Eh, I don't know about that. Tepper will always be one of those. You don't make as much money as he has without being one.

Truthfully, I don't care whether he's a saint or a son of a b-tch as long as he stays out of the way and lets the football people do their jobs.

Jury still out on Tepper imo dude is a clown. Has screwed many things up since taking over. Funny how fickle the huddle is considering many people ready to call for his head shortly ago.

dudes a fugging billionaire that loves football and owns a team, he's made it very clear that he wants to win super bowls, he's made mistakes and learned from them and is clearly trying to steer the team in the right direction.

who are you?

He made a massive mistake with Rhule, but he seems genuinely like a guy who learns from his mistakes and is determined not to repeat them. This is a very good thing.

To his credit, Tepper admitted the mistake of hiring Rhule. He seemed to have learned a lesson in humility by the mistake and was smart enough to step back, hire  great coaches and let them and Fitterer  make the important football moves.

    • I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it. 
    • Dan Marino sucked too I guess. Washed up Elway carried by Terrell Davis was actually better than prine Elway. Lol
