You may have billions of dollars. You may have succeeded into the stratosphere of the hedge fund industry. You may have every earthly possession you could ever want. But you don’t have what it takes to build a winning football team. You don’t have the respect of the Panthers fan base. In fact, you the full and disgusted disrespect of what is left of the fanbase after witnessing the rotted corpse of what used to be a somewhat enjoyable NFL team to follow. I have but one suggestion. Stop it. Stop trying to be an NFL GM. You are not going to succeed. The reasons you failed are not because you didn’t involve yourself enough, it’s because you involved yourself too much. The giddiness I witnessed on your face when you spoke about the day the team traded up to #1 overall to draft failed QB Bryce Young shows me you are not equipped for being involved in such decisions. NFL trades are not hedge fund stock market trades. Devalued investments are not the same as human athlete evaluations. I just moved back to North Carolina after living away for 13 years and I’m shocked at how few Panthers fans remain. You really have outdone yourself. You destroyed an albeit emotional yet proud fanbase. Please stop. Hire people more qualified than you to fix the disaster you have created. Sail off on your yacht to Monaco and enjoy an F1 race or something. Go to space. Do something billionaires are good at. Just stop ruining our football team. -The Panthers fanbase. Keep pounding.

David Tepper is a loser. He may have billions of dollars, but as an NFL owner he is a verified loser. Let’s not let him forget that.

It’s a combination of a horrible QB, bad offensive line, slow WRs, bad scheme, and a generally apathetic attitude. No one cares. These guys are cashing checks until they play for another team next year

Bryce Young is f*cking terrible. Yes the team is bad, the offensive line is awful, the WRs are bad, but when he has open guys he misses them consistently. He’s not taking advantage of the opportunities he has. Bust

The panthers are so bad the refs see a clear illegal touching penalty and are like nah who cares you guys are gonna lose either way

They’re playing the Milwaukee buttholes and the game starts at 4am. Get your slot cars ready girls

The defense has talent and it shows on the field. Even without some key starters the defense has still performed decent. If the offense could even be average this would have been a .500 team. The offense…..everyone can go. If Thielen was 10 years younger I’d say him. Chuba is decent too but I bet he’s ready to be out of the Panthers hell hole.

Tepper had barely owned the team for 3 months when the 2018 season started. He didn’t have time to mess sh*t up yet.

We’re beating a dead horse at this point. We know it’s Tepper. It starts at the top. Every year he has been the owner the team has gotten worse with the lone exception being Steve Wilks’s short tenure. We’d all be better served spending our time focused on something more productive on Sundays.

Main thing that would get Tepper to move the team is the stadium. It’s what generates his money. Keep in mind the panthers while they are currently his (failing) pet project, also host Charlotte fc games and concerts, among other events. Should these other sources of income no longer find profit at the current stadium he will pursue a new one, and that might not be in Charlotte

Nah we need a new mascot. The black cat curse vibes have gone far enough

Whoa. That is nuts. I hope he makes a full recovery. Probably should retire. Your brain is the last organ you want to injure.

So what I’m hearing is we are going to try to retain the defensive staff? Cool. Make Evero head coach Dave, quit being a shmuck.

There are only ~10 home games a year (pending the preseason and 17th game location). How many concerts does the stadium host per year? Tepper definitely accomplished one thing - the stadium is in use year round far more than it was under Jerry Richardson.

We did it!!! Our own category

What's Bryce's longest throw through the air this season?

Draft the best and fastest WR on the board. I’d pray Xavier Worthy drops.

What can Fitterer possibly do to save his job right now? Just fire him.

I’ll tell you one thing, Fitterer sure as hell isn’t making all the final calls. Because if he was, dude would have been fired already. His track record is atrocious.

2021. I thought they’d had a lot of close games in 2020 and the defense was better. Then Sam Darnold happened.

I was saying the same stuff all along. After I watched him play against Texas in 2022 I knew he wasn’t good. He faced pressure all game and mustered 1 TD drive. It was good enough for Alabama to luckily win the game because Quinn Ewers got hurt in the first half. But it is a mirror image of his NFL career. Young doesn’t look the part, he doesn’t deliver on the field, and he only looked good at Alabama in ideal circumstances.

https://apnews.com/article/nfl-aaron-rodgers-achilles-grass-artificial-turf-79212f5443cd2a0d30fe8c9d981b13c0 David Tepper loves data so here’s some food for thought. Maybe the team’s horrible performance and persistent injury issues with notable players will convince a potentially humbled owner to switch back to grass.

You can go ahead and rule out the big names. Jim Harbaugh is not leaving his cushy Michigan job for a dumpster fire like the Panthers. I don’t care how much money Tepper throws at him. The Bears job with the top overall pick, or the Chargers job, or wildcard maybe the Patriots job, will be top options for him if he wants to return to the NFL. Ben Johnson is already being told by current and/or former staff members (probably Duce Staley) to stay away. Probably good advice. No way on gods green earth Belichick coaches the Panthers. But hey it’s so unnatural and everything Tepper has done has felt so wrong and anti-Panthers that I’m leaving it open to chance. The name I keep coming back to is Kellen Moore. He was a final candidate last season and probably won’t be a hot commodity on the head coaching market this year. I will say that I highly doubt the Panthers are 1-11 if they’d hired Moore. But will he be a good coach? No idea. But I think he might be the guy we’re stuck with after striking out with the big name candidates.
