I think Fitts is terrible but I honestly kinda want him to stay onboard another year simply because I have a feeling that if he's fired after this year the new GM is going to be saddled with trying to first and foremost build a roster around Bryce. We might be better off just taking it on the shorts another year hoping Tepper can admit that yet another infatuation of his is a bust.

its better long term for this franchise to ride it back one more year with everybody so we can do an absolute clean break in 2025.  Forcing a gm or coach to roll with young as qb is going to turn off a lot of folks for both positions.

Don't forget the Happy Sharks GIF by Shark Week

This is worth the 10 minutes or so it takes to watch.

 

I think the sharks being referred to would be the type that want to choose their own GM or at least have some control in building a roster. Definitely similar to what Harbaugh was seeking from the Vikings last offseason. 

I can also see why some coaches might prefer the Panthers job to something like the Chargers. Going 9-8 there would immediately put you on the hot seat and there’s pretty much no chance of getting close to the playoffs with that record in a tough AFC.

Going 9-8 here would probably earn you a parade and a lifetime contract from Tepper. That’s how low the bar is at this point.

Yeah, I think we're fuged. I'm so happy the NFL got the buyer they wanted in the good old boys club but it sure fuging sucks for Panthers fans.

I'll add this...

Whether it's this offseason, next year or whenever, my enthusiasm for researching potential options is pretty low right now. 

Why? Same reason as others. Because knowing that Tepper is running things just makes it all just feel futile.

If he hires a consultant for guidance, maybe that'll help. If not, oy 😖

Surprised more folks aren’t pushing for Evero. Watching what he’s done here with a depleted D, being a young, rising HC candidate already to other teams and seeing what Ryans is doing in Houston, I’m all for it.

Evero and Ben Johnson are 1A & 1B. 
 

I do hope they let go of Fitts & Reich together so it’s a clean sweep.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
