Correct me if I am wrong but didn’t Tepper want to do away with the Keep Pounding mantra? Wilks took over and basically made it his entire coaching personality.

Never seemed like Wilks was much of a yes man and Tepper is always going to have the final say. He’s the owner and that’s his prerogative but we aren’t going to succeed until he takes a step back and accepts he doesn’t know a damn thing about football.

I'm fairly certain that wanting to stop the keep pounding and other traditions was strictly a Rhule thing. He's was trying to install his "Brand" nonsense. OOUs and DBO and all the rest of the Brand poo. He's the one that removed keep pounding in the locker room entrance and replaced it with The Brand definition.

He installed the same asshat verbiage at every stop he's been at and is now doing it at Nebraska.

Don't get me wrong I have plenty of beef with him, but right now I'm not even too mad at him specifically?

The Rhule hire was a disaster. He knows, you know it. We all know it. But it's not like he doubled down and made the same mistake again. Instead of hiring an unknown, this time around he tried to play it safe by hiring a guy that had like 5 winning seasons in 6 years at his previous post. While being one of the most respected and universally loved coaches in the league. The complete inverse of Rhule. He showed a clear willingness to learn from his mistakes and hired who we thought would at least be a solid coach while surrounding said coach with an all star cast of assistants. We all loved these moves.

It's like a curse has been placed on the franchise because I'm at a loss for how and why things look so bad right now. This same group basically went 7-10 last year and now we clearly look like the leagues worst team except maybe the Bears. What happened? 

Like, if Tepper had gone from Rhule to some other unknown wildcard coach I'd be way more angry. But that's not what he did. I'm at a complete loss for what is happening right now and why it's happening.

He didn’t fire Fitterer with Rhule. Should have completely started over

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      ESPN's All Quarter Century Team 2000-2025

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.

      Latest "Guess the Panther"

      Same thing I first thought but then I saw it was against Jacksonville and took about half a second of playing to know. I was at that game.  I can't tell you my level of excitement when I saw it was Delhomme instead of Peete who came out for the 2nd half. Delhomme has and will probably always be my favorite Panther.
