Lattanzio needed to be sacked. The team was very inconsistent and could not be counted on to not give the game away late. It happened on multiple occasions. Also he couldn't secure a playoff berth in an expanded format where 2/3 of the teams in the league made the playoffs. This is not some Tepper overinfluence and lack of patience. He gave Lattanzio a full season after he was the interim for most of last season. 

Just trying to get in front of some of the ignorant takes that will no doubt pepper this thread because most of y'all know fug all about Charlotte FC.

Isn't this the second one in three years?

The Tepper's are amongst the worst in all of sports.

It's comical that people have carried water for him and his wife.

Soccer has much more frequent manager changes than the NFL does, just the nature of the sport.

Changing a coach in the NFL is significantly more difficult given the structure of plays and strategy

Soccer is near the complete opposite, a new coach can completely change a teams overall game strategy in little to no time at all.  Sure it will take time for players to adjust and learn to play in a new system, but it’s nothing like NFL teams having to re-adjust and learn new plays that need to have 11 players working in perfect timing together.

Yes, and tbh I wouldn’t put the firing of the first coach on Tepper.  Rumor was that plenty of players spoke against the coach behind the scenes and then that kind of was confirmed after he got fired and the team captain had some stuff to say about the coach, saying there was fracture between the coach and the players and players were relieved when the firing was announced.

Need to fire the soccer team to a different city. Give it to Raleigh where those people have nothing better to do 

Except pull for a winning professional franchise, not be surrounded by wanna be wall-street bros, and watch duke slowly eclipse UNC as the best basketball program in the state.

NFL or MLS. Instability is the continued theme.

As the saying goes if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. It's a duck.

You ever heard of Duke, UNC and NCSU (not that I personally follow them)? Plenty of stuff to do in the Triangle outside of sports though, like walking safely down the street, or returning to your car that's still there after a jaunt.

And meanwhile in Raleigh, Tom Dundon has done nothing but help the Carolina Hurricanes be perennial contenders and is hoping to bring MLB to the state.

 

Tepper needs to just sell to Dundon. Dundon would then hire a president over the team who has knowledge and experience that he trusts. Because Dundon is one of the best owners in sports.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
