I hope David Tepper is aware of a basic truth

He's a deterrent if Tepper says he's the QB and the candidate watches the film and says, yeah... that dude ain't it 

I don’t think it would come to that honestly, Bryce isn’t being paid 250 million dollar contract and we aren’t financially tied to him like Russell Wilson.

It shouldn't but who knows with Tepper. We're probably committed to Bryce at least one more year. There just about has to be off field issues for a top pick QB not to get at least two years now matter how awful they are as a rookie

The answers were obvious in front of his face he just didn’t want them.

Promote Wilks to HC

Resign Cam

Draft Stroud or AR

Keep last years running game and philosophy 

Keep DJ Moore

Broken down Cam Newton? That's not an answer at all. He looked terrible at the end of his career.

I don't think we should judge frank untill we get a competent QB , we are asking him to win the race with no engine or tires

No other candidate will come here if they have to start Bryce Young 

This offense is god awful. It's boring and predictable with hardly any motion. Supposedly he picked Bryce. If that's true, he can be judged because this is his guy. If Tepper picked Bryce, then that means it's still Frank's fault for agreeing to work for someone making player decisions with absolutely no idea what they're doing. 

Might as well get a heart transplant at Meineke.

There will always be candidates. There are only 32 of these jobs in the world. Don't under estimate the drive and egos of some folks that think they can be the 1 to turn something around. Regarding Young, we aren't on the hook for a fortune to him, so there is no obligation to keep him if/when there is a change at the top.

This is my thoughts exactly, if you’re a first time candidate for HC and come out with demands then you better be in the Super Bowl in 3 years because the coaches that work with what they have do much better in the long run.

The ONLY path forward is this.

 

You get a president of football operations hired immediately. Ideally, nobody you know closely if you're Tepper. Somebody with an objective view and a track record of success or a resume under other successful people. You hire that person and you never, ever give your input on what you want outside of "a winning football team". That's it. If he fails, poo can him after 5 years (let's be real, that's how long it takes to unfug this mess) and hire somebody else. But you don't get involved with the actual football team beyond hiring that guy ever again. You're bad at it, you're clueless, and you are torching the franchise scrambling for solutions.

 

Tepper doesn't do that, we're looking at 15 years minimum of absolute fuging pathetic football because Tepper will absolutely not sell if he is making money, and it's damn near impossible to lose money when you own an NFL team. So Tepper is here until he decides he doesn't want to.

It won't take 5 years. Not if you have the right people in place. Now, next year is going to be bad, but maybe not as bad as this year. 

I agree about restructuring the operations, and Tepper needs to sign checks and be a cheerleader. I think our scouting department has become very inconsistent. I don't think we do well developing players. I don't think we have had an identity since Cam, Luke and the others from the last run left the game. Establishing those things again will not be overnight. 

But getting back to being competitive will not be a 5 year plan, if the right choices are made. I have no confidence that can happen though.

Ive been a fan since we were awarded the Franchise. Ive been thru the ups and downs. (the Seifart years, the Rhule years, the Reich year). But thru it all I endured cause we were at the bottom of the pendulum about to swing up. The 2001 season led us to John Fox, a SB appearance and countless all pro/Hall of Fame players. The 2010 season led us to Rivera, a SB appearance and countless All Pro/Hall of Fame players. Then Tepper bought the team. After the 2019 season, we got hit with Matt Rhule, Teddy 2 gloves, hardly any players really to mention, traded players/released a legend, didnt even make the playoffs or sniff them. And then there was the 2022 season, which Rhule was fired in the middle of and Wilks took over. Suddenly there was hope, and that was quickly extengiushed with the hiring of Frank Reich. All of the work that Wilks had done to help the team was gone. And now we're left with a coach who lost the locker room before he even took the job, who was told they were drafting a player he didnt want to be "his" qb, who is so inept at offence that he makes John Fox's offense look exciting. I'm not excited to watch this team anymore. I havent watched a live Panthers game since before the bye week. All I do now is just check out highlights or box scores. 

 

I guess what I'm trying to say is f*ck David Tepper for being an idiot and ruining this franchise. He's run us into the ground faster the Jeff Davidson's offense did.

everything was going in the right direction after firing rhule.

this wouldn't sting so bad had rhule been fired after the season and everything transitioned into the trash heap we're watching now.

what we saw on the field the second half of last year was the foundation you build on. wilks may not have been the long term answer, but there's no denying what he was establishing was.

  

Wilks And the players on last year’s team got that identity thing straightened out PDQ. 

In my opinion, and before my very eyes in real time, Tepper and Fitterer and their hires tore a lot of the good right out of the team, right off the bat. They just tore it down. It did not make sense unless they were for real going to break out some revolutionary stuff. 

Which, there has been no trace of creativity. At. All. Anyone else seen any? It is so bad, it seems as if it has to be intentional. No one is that damned sorry and disjointed in their thinking and planning and developing, naturally.

Never seen anything like it.

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
