Cam Newton made Tepper an offer he can't refuse. Newton for President.

Tepper hasn’t liked Cam since that video came out with Cam asking how he made his money, seemed to irritate Tepper… 

Cam is a confident individual who doesn't hold back and bite his tongue. I haven't seen any indication that Tepper would be too tolerant of folks like that. The one guy who he's let hang around that I thought would be that guy (Smitty) has sadly pretty much turned into a lapdog. I don't think it's a coincidence that Tepper went all in on a QB prospect who comes across as one of the most timid acting franchise QB prospects I've ever seen. I mean, think about it. Have you ever seen a guy who was tabbed as a potential franchise QB at any point whether it was leading up to the draft or a non-1st round pick who showed promise at some point act as sheepish as Bryce does? It's weird. Most football folks would be turned off by that. Then you have Scott Fitterer at GM who took what was essentially a GM in title only role without final roster say to be a wet nurse for a college coach who was floundering. Real viable GM candidates with ambition don't take that job. A lot of fans have talked about how we don't have any dogs on this team and lack "alphas" (as cringe as that term is) but I just don't think Tepper is likely to tolerate those types for long.

Unfortunately an organization needs those types because not every person can be that type. When I think about it you are right, I dont think we have one of those types at all.

If you don't know who Dipper is after 6yrs of ownership you haven't been paying attention or you're personally delusional... hes a megalomaniac drunk on 20bill

      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.
