Maybe Tepper can consult with Dundon on how to effectively run a franchise.

I'm sure TD can sell him his sekrets for 1b.

Step 1. Fire gm
Step 2. Name franchise hero from championship coach (Cam Newton, duh)
Step 3. Make borg
Step 4. ???
Step 5: win gaem.
Honestly, I'd be okay with giving Luke Kuechly full control of football operations. We just need somebody who's not part of the old boy's club and who can kill Tepper with their bare hands if he tries to interfere.

No big decision between those 2, Panthers traded the 2024 1st rounder to move up and take Bryce


Except Steve Smith Jr is like 12 years old…
geez, brain freeze....forgot about that.....turnaround date gets pushed back even further.

Such a poorly run franchise with not only that trade plus the one letting McCaffrey go for only a 5th.

Panthers have an ownership problem.

Overall team wasn't good enough to trade assets to get a rookie QB. That plus eating $57 mill in dead cap this season to bring in FA also added to the disappointment.

SF was good enough to give up futures to move up for Lance.
Seattle after 2 excellent draft classes can do that if they needed to now.

Carolina not on that level. Rams were good enough to move 2 firsts to go and get Stafford, though one ended up being pick 4, but they won the SB.

Go from a bad season with Rhule, to Wilks coming in and winning games, then changing to Reich and swap Young in at QB, but lose Moore.

Imagine Cam Newton as a coach. That would be the Deion experience and then some.

I'm just here for the crazy outfits, the post game pressers, and the fact he would have some balls. Maybe even a decent qb mentor.

I also give him full autonomy to make jersey alterations/decisions. Mah man!

We're also going to replace our helmets with whatever this damn thing is:

Turn this whole f'n thing into even more of a specatacle.

Also we're going to hire Forslund and Tracey as announcers.

At every turn they had an option to make a decision they've made the wrong one. The only way you can get this friggin bad. They're a broken clock that somehow defies the laws of space time to not even be right 2x a day.

My fair weather takes from seeing some of the complaints: Tepper needs to find competent people to run his org then step the hell away. This definitely reeks of an owner who's entirely too involved with the decision making process. Any GM worth their weight probably isn't signing up for that gig if Tepper is just running the show behind the scenes.

That’s what I’m talking about. If we’re going to be a trash organization, let’s at least make it fun.

Come to think of it, the Canes started storm surging and wearing Whalers jerseys before they were any good. Who knows, maybe Coach Cam shakes it up so much he actually turns them into a good team.

Man if you want a spectacle, what better person to have at the helm than Mr Ice Up Son himself

I am a bears fan and feel pain in that victory. Like good job you had your undrafted rookie pull it out for a hurt borderline bust 1st rounder QB.

Seems like a bad idea.
Wut?

I mean, it's pointless to invest any emotional energy in the Panthers, and I certainly wouldn't waste an afternoon, but I don't see any downside. What's Tepper going to do, move the team out of pique and be just as miserable somewhere where the team doesn't have even the tatters of an emotionally attached fanbase?

That's what I mean. Pointless is a better word. IMO it's stupid to organize a marching protest over a professional team you're just a fan of. You can protest with your wallet and that seems more appropriate, but again just my opinion.

I'd go with Eric Collins and Tripp

Tepper and his $20 billion aren't going to care.

Don't watch, attend, buy merchandise, etc. That's the way to "boycott", you know, stuff that costs nothing

He's not going to care about that stuff either -- dude makes many millions every year in profit sharing, purely because he owns an NFL team. Doesn't matter if they're good or not for him to make money. Dude is a massive douche

So the panthers subreddit found an old post from 8 years ago on the Chargers subreddit, back when Reich was their OC.

They had the same exact issues with their OL that we have and the same issues that Indy did when he was the HC.

Reichs zone blocking scheme sucks and is sabotaging the offense.

No tears would be shed upon his firing.

The Cowbops specialize in posteriorizing bad teams. Tepper is going to be so embarrassed this week a head will roll.

I consider the boys lucky to not lose by 35+.

Unless the Cowboys succumb to the meme energy and lose. We do play them weirdly well.

Scratch that we suck LOL. 3-10 all time
