We really screwed up

[mcsmoak]

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.

There's fug all we can do about it now so there's no point bitchin.

Preach brotha. Hated when they said Navarro was out of the running, didn't think it would be THIS bad though. Tepper is a bottom 5 owner unfortunately.

Yep.

Man it’s amazing what good ownership does to a team. Look at the hurricanes. How many playoff appearances now?

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?

5 and many more on the way.

I had hoped that Tepper’s deep pockets and association with a winning franchise would lead to more winning. So far, it’s been nothing but abject failure…unless BY can turn this around. Don’t know yet if he can, but I can’t let myself try to imagine a complete reset again in three years.

This is like being mad about who your parents are.

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.

First time on the huddle? 99% of huddle posts are crying about things that nothing can be done about and in a way as if anyone here could do something about.

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.

I dont think the nfl wanted navarro because of his rep on how he made his money
