And it’s only wasted breath to keep saying he’s “stupid” or whatever. He hasn’t hired the right guys yet..sure. Okay, so let’s keep trying. Not much else to do other than peace as a fan.

If your biggest hope is that a guy who has no clue what he's doing (yet still insists on being hands on) will one day somehow luck into doing the right thing, you have no hope.

Tepper needs to take himself completely out of the equation. The only guy I can see him trusting enough to do that with doesn't work here right now, but he could.

Please let him get hired by the Panthers. Praying right now for it.

I'm neither pro nor anti 

Oops. My full text didn't post. Sorry about that.

I think Tepper is trying to hard to win. He brought back Cam when he felt the team needed a spark under Rhule. He tried to bring in veteran QBs two years in a row to help the offense. He got rid of Rhule when he saw the team was going nowhere with him at the helm.

Tepper knows it's an offensive game today. He hired our first offensive minded head coach to bring us into the modern era. When he got the new coach gave him everything he asked for on the coaching staff. New DC, new OC, new QB coach, new WR coach, new RB coach and hired an assistant head coach (Jim Caldwell) to oversee everything. All the pundits said Bryce had everything in place to succeed as a rookie.

Now we are worse than we were last year. Tepper may have influenced the Young selection. Even if he did, I can't fault him. Even the media said it was a toss up between Young and Stroud. I think he's got the wrong people in place. More on this later. Gotta go to work now.

What I’m saying is that it’s his team and he’s still the one that needs to hire an exec. That’s what I’m saying. Picking the right guy for that role is just as a task as picking a GM. And a lot of those guys are exec/GM combos. I mean, it’s Tepper’s move no matter what.

I think you neatly summed up everything wrong with Tepper's stewardship.

You can't have a non-football person making football decisions like that.  You hire a real grown up, experienced leader to run the team - and you definitely don't hire your wife who has absolutely no experience.

You've got to ditch Fitts now - regardless of whether it's his fault or not.  I fully concede it may not be, given the Rhule era and Tepper being in charge.  I don't know if Fitts is at fault, but it's very clearly a roster devoid of the requisite talent.  I think you have to chase Samir Sulieman out as well.  Our guy who is supposed to keep our cap in control continues to kick the can down the road and limit our options in the future.

Tepper is a huge part of the problem.  But it will be years before it's fixed, because we've already mortgaged our future.  That assuming Tepper can hire people to run the Panthers and then just get out of the way.  I'm not sure he can.

Even if Beane was the GM and Andy Reid was the coach, Tepper and his wife would still put themselves at the table making football decisions.  

 

We will literally be horrible til he removes himself from the equation and he can't do that because he's hands on 100% in everything he does. So we stuck like Chuck til he sells the team in 20-25 years

I will be dead by then

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
