It is possible the NFL punishes Tepper by taking draft picks from the Panthers …..not that they have a lot to give.

It is very clear why the Panthers have been a significant failure since Tepper bought the team.

Maybe if he was left handed…..

I think the Panthers will have to build via free agency due to trading away so many valuable draft picks. There are so many holes it is impossible to fill them with the draft. The key is getting the right GM and HC…..and making sure they are strong enough to tell Tepper to back off.

Very true. And in addition to this, Tepper needs to stay out of the football operations, and let his football people make decisions without him meddling.

Isn’t it sad that we’re comparing Bell to our first round draft pick. I honestly don’t know how Fitt still has a job. It’s sad to say that Marty Hurney was significantly better than Fitt

On the last third downplay, I saw receivers open. I just don’t think BY is seeing the field.

Today I’m noticing that when young throws the ball, he jumps up

I’m having a flashback of Byron Bell at left tackle

The old Fox draw play on third and long would work better than what we see now

That was not Jackson…it was 20…Griffin

Nine points seems insurmountable

It is amazing at just how bad Fitterer has been. The scary part is he is still the GM. The unknown is if Tepper is forcing the decisions but even so Fitterer is still quilty for not pushing back. This guy makes a lot of money to build a team and each year the team has gotten worse. Tepper can keep hiring and firing coaches but if the team lacks talent that is on the GM and scouts.

Now do Fitterer: 2021: Horn 2022: icky 2023: Young Ironic part of the 2020 draft. It was rumored that Hurney wanted to trade up for a QB….Herbert. But was voted down by the brain trust they thought Teddy was the answer. Also rumored that Rhule wanted Henderson. So Hurney picked Brown.

These team has more holes than draft picks so I think free agency is key. Unless they trade Burns. WR, LB, DL, TE, OL for sure. Also would like to see some QB competition.

I am sure someone will take/want the job. The question is will any top candidates want it. He will have to build the team via free agency vs draft. The new HC needs to be a strong leader and be able to stand up for his program and decisions against Tepper. For whatever reason it does not appear Frank was able to do this. Rhule was just not an NFL coach.

I was listening to ESPN radio this morning with Greenie. They were talking about the best HC openings. Carolina was last…and not even close. They were joking they would rather coach Coastal Carolina than the Panthers. Primary reason- the owner. Tepper has a terrible reputation and all of the recent Hunger Games talk has made it worse. The number one problem with the Panthers is Tepper. I think it is telling that he fired Frank but not Fitterer. Fitterer is the GM and has been for over 3-years. This team has significantly less talent now than in 2020. Each year the team has gotten worse and that is a bi-product of bad decisions made by the Panthers leadership. Fitterer must be in tune with Tepper or he would have been canned with Frank.

Chuba was open vs Thielen

84 was open in the end zone

Not convinced any coach would have been successful this year with the team as is and then having a meddling owner involving himself in football decisions. And having coaches going to Tepper and Fitt reporting as spies against the HC. The “Hunger Games” environment would affect any HC especially a rookie HC.

Unfortunately this is true

Duce surely will tell him to stay away from the Panthers. Duce was a coach at Detroit prior to the Panthers so they know each other. We hear gossip. Duce knows the truth.

It would great to be mediocre again! I fear it will be years before we see mediocrity again.

That is a throwaway pass that goes into the ground. He does those often when flushed out of the pocket. He does not look downfield.

One reason why Frank is gone. Pretty sure he was one of the coaches pushing to let Young sit. Guessing our lovable owner was against that.
