Is anyone else now buying the idea Tepper has eyes on a Europe move??

I originally thought that idea was BS given the queens market, population, and bright future. But Ive watched the last home game and the attendance was pitiful, P-I-T-F-U-L. Yes you people that braved the heart breaks and made the trip were loud and represented best you could.

Just doesn't the NFL allow a team to move if attendance is below a certain %?? I swear I remembered that, just while the NFL is printing money the Panthers are not. They would have insane sells and Semi Trailers full of cash for ten years if they moved to say Berlin. No mortal loves money and profit margin more Tepper and by the looks of it he's building a case to facilitate an owner approved move (along with two other teams). 

 

Bonus- Sorry to people that said drafting Tmac was an indictment on XLs play and future....... I have also changed my view of this towards, yes it did play a huge part in drafting Tmac.

The good news is that Tepper works so poorly with others that if the NFL didn't carry him across the finish line I have trouble thinking it will end any better than Rock Hill. 

It's also not a fan issue. It's the product they are selling issue. Couldn't pick a worse product to sell in a new market like Europe.

A permanent team in Europe doesnt work.  The unfair competitive disadvantage would be huge.

They would find ways to help. Larger PS, more cap space, etc. Besides its not one team moving it would be atleast 3(Panthers, jags, titans/bills/ravens/jets/saints). One team travels over there and plays 3 teams in three weeks. The travel is not worst than going EC to south Alaska AKA Seattle. or other WC trips.

They already have a plan in place, trust me...And I feel tepper is 100% involved.

Tepper has done great in Charlotte.  He isn’t going anywhere. 

* Tepper is here to diversify his investments and continue to grow his mass wealth.   Being “good” at football is just a fun novelty for him as his wealth grows

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
