Tonight's INSIDE THE NFL didn't hold back on comments

Chad Ochocinco said that changing out the HC isn't going to make a difference if the player quality is still the same under new regime.

They threw in comments about Tepper being a billionaire and playing with a shiny toy. "That's not how football works"

Worth the 3m listen, starting around the 17m mark into the hour

In other words, six years in, Tepper’s had an interim coach for 22% of his games.

How does that happen? Well, it goes back to that saying: Don’t let one mistake become two.

“His thing is, the minute it gets bad, it’s going to get worse, so we better try something else,” says one former Panthers staffer. “He’s a hedge fund guy; that’s what hedge fund guys do. The second something stops earning money, they take their money out of it, take the profit and move on to something else.”

“He doesn’t care about the money,” says a former Panthers coach. “He looks at it like a stock—you make a poor investment, there’s a sunk cost, boom, you move on.”

I don’t give a damn about Tepper. He will be OK.
what I don’t like is these people in the media who watched like 2 quarters of the Panthers all season going to bat for a coach that clearly was not working 

Exactly right 

it was absolutely not working offensively 

waiting another six weeks wasn’t anything but torment for all involved with this putrid jr. High offense and dare I say, jr high qb 

Frank now can retire fully with at last $50 million from two NFL owners 

I’m not a Tepper fan but I also don’t believe he is the antichrist.

Hire the right person and all will be forgotten as was with Jed York and other owners 

in my case, older now, can’t wait this out, don’t want to wait it out 

that’s the issue with pro sports and being a fan thereof

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
