I appreciate Tepper for wanting to win. He has actually taken a step back. He has. Don't you at least want to give him credit for that?

Now, I didn't hear the "basement dwellers" comment, but he's human. Billionaires, just by their very experience (whether self-made or given everything in a silver spoon), are going to have a degree of "assholeness," especially if you rub them the wrong way. In my opinion, Tepper is kind of benign.

When you have so much success, sometimes you just have to get out of your own way, and that's hard. There's a balance between knowing when to step in, and when to sit back and listen. I think that he's learning that. 

i just wish that he wasn't so damned cheap with the field. What's that all about? The only thing that I can come up with is that he's a cheap ass motherfu<ker--a billionaire that may as well put turf around his mansion, fake plants and plastic flowers, just to get out of paying for lawn care.

What the fug are you talking about? Yeah we weren’t a prestigious organization or anything but year after year for 20 years, outside of two seasons, we had a competitive team and were worth watching. Say what you want about JRich but we were far from a joke under his watch. 

And how many back to back winning seasons did we have? What was the teams lifetime winning percentage? I’d wager around .500 at best.


I will love the Panthers forever no matter what but that is literally the definition of mediocrity bud.

I think what he is saying is that we went from mediocre to joke status--a virtual bottom feeder. Sure, we've never been a top tier team on a consistent basis, but we went to the Bowl twice (under JR). Tepper made some bad decisions, but, perhaps unlike others, I absolutely know that it takes time to figure things out, and it has to be super difficult to be a "boss" in one business, and then going through the process and realizing that you are a virtual greenhorn in another. 

At least we seem to be headed in the right direction. We'll see come this fall.

Exactly. And I hope we are headed in the right direction and Tepper seems to be less hands-on and in your face but I don’t work for the organization so I wouldn’t know. I just hate this recency bias of some glory years that never existed. Yes we suck now. But we have always sucked.

Yeah but we weren't punchline of a joke bad like the Browns/Bungles/etc. Now we are. It's likely we will remain the worst NFL franchise for the foreseeable future.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
