We really screwed up

When I say we, I mean the organization, not the fans.   Ben Navarro should be the owner of the Panthers… Jerry wanted it, those who have the Panthers best interest in mind wanted it, and anyone who is familiar with both guys wanted it.   Carolina ties (Charleston), low key personality who didn’t want any involvement in creating football decisions but rather supporting the best minds attainable both professionally and financially.  Son of a college football coach and essentially just a lover of the game who wanted to bring a championship home.   Basically Jerry without the old school work environment.  
 

instead we are stuck with this POS and there’s likely only two ways his tenure will end.  He’ll move the team or run it into the ground and eventually be forced to sell 15 years from now after he turns us into the browns.

apologies for beating a dead horse.

Why is Tepper a bad owner? What's the expectation for owners that he isn't meeting? Not disagreeing with you, but don't understand the reasoning.

He pays for the best coaching staff money can buy. Rhule didn't work out, but he was highly sought after and Tepper gave him a deal he couldn't pass up. 

Is Tepper making decisions he shouldn't be making? Is he overriding other front office personnel that he shouldn't be?

I mean what does that even mean though? Reich isn't a SB winner. For all we've seen Wilks is a more impressive coach thus far. Caldwell got his ass kicked all the time with the Lions. McCown was a terrible player. It's like Tepper just saw all the names and through money at it.

The NFL picks the owners and they had a hard time and had to lower their standards for the DC sale. 

Blame the NFL for being a billionaires profit making toy. Most new owners stink for years and some never change. Just make the teams publicly traded and get rid of the rich doofuses problem altogether.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
