Says there are big changes coming to Mint street very soon. Hints at Tepper getting ready to cut bait and make some big changes.

Don't know if he knows something or just blowing smoke. If the Panthers get embarrassed on Thursday night, could that be the last straw?

Do you buy Shefter's story or not?

 

 

 

Hi there, mod edit, adding provided source for context:

Adam Shefter on the future of Carolina

Quote

“I don’t think anyone has a long rope there just because of the type of season they’re having. We go back to last year and Matt Rhule, there were stories coming out the week before he’s fired: ‘David Tepper is going to be patient, David Tepper is going to take his time.’

One thing about David Tepper is that he’s not very patient. As successful as he is, because of the way he’s operated his business. It’s worked for him at basically every level. He does what he wants, and I don’t think people are thinking there’s trouble right now with those people, but would anybody be surprised with anything that happens in Carolina after this year? No.

Look, you have the kind of season that they’re having, let’s keep in mind on Thursday night they play the Bears. The Bears have their number one draft pick. So, if the Bears win on Thursday night, it’s a huge victory, and in an even bigger way, than just winning the game itself for the Chicago Bears on Thursday night.

Again, this is not the kind of season that the Carolina Panthers expected. Whether we’re talking about the Giants or the Panthers or any team that is going through what they’re going through and this is the kind of year that ends up being a long, miserable season, there are going to be people that lose jobs, wherever it is, there are going to be changes that are made wherever it is, that is the way that the league runs and operates.

You want the good people to be kept, and the people that mean a lot to the league to stick around as long as possible, but the fact of the matter is that’s not going to happen especially in the places that are having the type of year that these franchises are.”

This is not new information and is all hypothetical, not even speculation by Schefter.

I said it earlier this week, if they lose….you will see changes.   It’s a long week.   And lose to the team we will essentially be gifting the #1 overall pick at the games conclusion….will generate moves made to signal change and Tepper’s unhappiness.   Because the story and narrative in Carolina with a L is not going to be good. 
 

But they could always win.  TNF is full of weirdness.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
