From Adam Schefter, re: Scott Fitterer...

It also remains uncertain who will help guide Tepper. The Panthers haven't given general manager Scott Fitterer any assurances that he will be retained, league sources said, though Carolina has intimated to some around the NFL that it would like to keep Fitterer. Even so, league sources believe Fitterer's future remains up in the air.

That right there tells me we will be bad for a VERY LONG  time. What is there even to think about?!

Remember when a lot of folks were saying we had hit rock bottom and I told them that it's felt like that numerous times and that just means that Tepper is about to break out the heavy equipment and break own through again?

Well, this is the heavy equipment.

We are so fuged. The only question at this point is when or if Tepper will become sufficiently embarrassed and perhaps humbled enough to GTFO of the football side of the house. Because we are completely fuged until he does.

Y’all have to remember that these coaches are not going to work at Sprint, a lot of these guys are super arrogant and feel like they can change the situation. Also, a lot of the complexities of Carolina was how dysfunctional Frank’s administration was. If your scheme wasn’t ass you wouldn’t face so much heat. 

Tepper is a terrible owner. The next HC will be 2nd or 3rd tier.

If I were a coach on the team I would have wanted to bench Young as well to try and keep my job. Dalton is clearly the better QB, and each loss pushes hot head Tepper closer to firing coaches. Yeah put Dalton in would have been my mantra.

Me and Tepper would've had it out after the Seahawks game in week 3. Dalton is clearly the better option right now and part of it is simply handling the constant pressure better. You're not doing your rookie any favors putting him out there to look like ass every week.

If Tepper really wants Johnson he needs to do whatever he can to get him. 
New GM, ability to pick own staff, Tepper agreeing to stay the hell out of Johnson’s way. 
Like you have said before I don’t know if it is possible for Tepper to do that. 
But if he wants Johnson he is going to have to change. 

I can hear dipper now. "Here Ben, run this play. I think it will be a TD"

This also from Jeff Howe...

The biggest names there will be Ben Johnson, Frank Smith, Kellen Moore and Bobby Slowik, and Johnson seems to be getting to the point where he can pick his spot. The problem for the Panthers, though, is Johnson may not want anything to do with David Tepper and his quick-hook problem. 

 

 

But Tepper doesn’t have a “quick hook problem.”

I mean if anything he kept Rhule too long. He showed plenty of patience there. 

Reich won 1 game this season, and the team wasn’t showing any upward progress. Not sure why this is shocking. 
 

Butthurt coaches and reporters can talk poo, but this firing isn’t a toxic one at all, and not the red flag everyone says it is. 
 

There are plenty of other things to be upset with Tepper about, but having a short leash isn’t one of them.

I mean, he essentially fired Wilks too by not retaining him after he largely turned the team around.

The reporter just used "quick hook problem". He could've simply said "shitty work environment".

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...

      Canes vs Leafs 7pm

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning.

      The team store should re-release Dan Morgan's jersey.

      By csx · Posted

      I like Morgan's approach but I'll wait for a few winning seasons before giving too much praise.
