Serious question: what HC candidate in their right mind would want to come here?

Disagree with Field Yates. Tepper can do wonders by meeting and discussing job security with potential candidates. Tepper has to SELL the organization as much as the candidates have to sell him. He could better sell the organization by admitting he is a meddling owner as well as his wife and that they both plan to take a step back and let actual football knowledgeable people run the show. This may give many great candidates some actual comfort and reassurance. It's all about him selling the organization to actual potentially GOOD coaches. When you have fired Rhule and Reich in the way you did it's now your responsibility to market and sell your team to those who are trying to sell themselves in an interview as well. Tepper is a financial genius, I'm sure he already knows this but the question is will his ego allow it to admit his faults to himself and to figure candidates

He has to be willing to do this first.

Right now, there's no indication that he is.

He admitted he made the wrong hire in just 11 weeks.    He will never publicly say anything of the sort about his involvement but actions speak louder than words.

The list will be long, the job is that much of a rarity. 

And, honestly, with Bryce we could end up with a situation like the Jaguars did... new coach, new plan, better ability, and you start to build a guy worth the pick.

And I'm betting that as soon as the offseason hits, we will get Burn's contract nailed down for a mint and then promptly trade him to a team for a mid-round first round draft pick.

I don't really care if the list is long.

I want it to be good.

That's the hope but the Jags got somewhat lucky that Pederson was available at the time and interested. What SB winning HC can we get to save us?

Honestly, I don't know. We could be both surprised and angered by who we pick up.

And I don't think Belichick is going to be free (not that I want him). I think Belichick is doing the most covert tank job of all time so he can have pick number 2 in the draft AND get the QB he wants.

Well I sure hope he does. I mean if we all can see it why the heck can't the genius see it? If one is so intellectually gifted, they should be able to see past their own ego and do a very unbiased self assessment to check themselves and improve themselves. He is a smart guy so I just expect some things that he should be able to do. If I can do it with all my faults then I expect anyone to be able to swallow some pride and check the ego to do it as well.

Me, too. And obviously, unquestionably, without a doubt, blindman find it in the dark good. Like heralded by the trumpets of angels good.

But, like when we fired Rivera and hired Rhule, then fired Rhule and hired Reich, I'm going in with this caveat: "What we get may be worse than what we jettisoned."

I was right about that when we let Rivera go. And again after Rhule (and who in the world would have thought that, not me even). 

Let me be wrong this time, let me be wrong! Please.

So you are saying that the message from Tepper was sent out before they told the team? I don’t buy that. I think Franks agent leaked it

Frank's agent has the ability to post on the Panthers official Twitter?

To tell the truth, it wouldn't really be beneficial to Frank's agent anyway. 

Regardless of how it got out, the fact that it did is just another testament to how big a sh-t show Tepper is running.

Why?

 

He fired the coach.  The report was leaked to media before the front office could meet with the  players.  They were on their phone and saw the reports.

 

This doesn't mean anything.   Tepp has sucked as an owner but this is nothing.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
