I mean, there's a definite trend here. It is what it is. A revolving door of personnel and losses piling up. That's been the story of the Tepper era so far.

I am not making this judgement personally but maybe we are purging under performers or people with opposing philosophies and he is at the bottom of the ‘to do’ list. 

We don’t know why at this time. Maybe it will come out. He isn’t a key player in much, being VP of...

Until he is a total liability, he should play out his contract since it is basically guaranteed.

In the case of him repeating 2023, we do not give him starting status for 2025, and we move to upgrade the position. 

But he will know the system. It is simple: insist he honor the contract until it benefits you for him to not be bound by it. I think if he stinks it up again, you salvage whatever value you can any way you can and that is likely the only way.

I mean it's an ownership problem in any business when there is this much turnover. Anyone that's had a shitty boss ruin a job that could have been a pleasant and profitable situation can relate regardless of the level of employment or specific duties of the job. There is very little you can do as far as building a culture when you have an instrusive dickhead owner

this is interesting, it feels like if they were going to fire him they would have done it already but he was on blueprint looking excited about the draft. If i had to guess he did something non football related that got him fired. 

According to Joe Person Adrian a Wilson sexually assaulted Sir Purr

Yeah this really isn’t a big deal, he was brought in by Fitterer which was the worst GM in our history. Staff changes are expected after going 2-15.

Besides, all that hype was just hype. It’s not like the Cards just came off the SB and he was some type of guru.

Chances are Morgan fired him.

Technically Morgan probably had to deal with it, until we see a few years of stability it's totally fair to speculate that Tepper is just toying with this whole operation with no direction from the top down.

My job wasn’t sports but it was very much a team oriented proposition. I wouldn’t know how to argue against the track record critics. I’m with them 

I think maybe the question is: is Tepper capable/incapable of learning, of overcoming his compulsion to impart his vision via firing people. Question mark.

Certainly he understands that that is not ideal. To have your prize draft pick worked and trained in a nice continuous arc is the ideal, bi-annual disruption is not at all the ideal. Even when it is disrupted with the best of intentions. 

He has to figure this out sooner or later, right?

Probably just a parting of ways like most regime change. (Voluntary or not)

Kevin Winston looks to be the new Player guy and he’s been doing this for years with the Falcons and Bucs prior to coming to Charlotte.

Having to get to page two and get passed anti-Bryce/Morgan/Tepper posts just to get meaningful info is dumb as poo. Thank you so much for doing the legwork and finding out who the replacement is.

For those that are also interested in looking further into Winston's background instead of crying, here:

Oh no, cancel the season then. Without him we will never reach the super bowl this year.....In all  honesty who cares, bye. Replace him with someone better and move on. Keep flushing that toilet with players and coaches and all staff until you eventually get all the turd down and are left with good people.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
