He's done. Figured out. Plays scared. Can't fix that. Hypnosis maybe, but that's it. DNA. Mental makeup isn't given through rubber stamp. You either scared or you ain't.

Funny, I know that guy from way back. I really don't know what he can do here. I'd rather a new staff. Hope the best for Pep though.

We'd be more obliged if he didn't turn our 25+yr old into an expansion squad again for his own merriment. It's not appreciated. He was determined to take Carolina back to square one to the point of ditching KEEP POUNDING, Why? To orchestrate some glorious rise from the ashes? With Matthew Rhule? This "rebuilding" isn't that at all. It's embarrassing. Tepper should be embarrassed. I'll give him props for opening the door to bringing Cam back, it was almost a nod to understanding where things started to go horribly wrong.

Is he waiting for Rhule to become an elite coach?! Now that's silly. I think it's so embarrassing what he paid this guy he's hoping it'll all fix itself. Past the point of no return Teppy...

Losing and losing and losing and losing, THATS how you become winners! 1000%

Cam should start at reasonable price so Sam can be the high priced backup. After seeing Cam throw (just that alone, not anything his butterfinger WR have caught or dropped) the "arm" was obviously still there. Very tight spirals. What was missing was timing with his receivers and obviously drops. It's put up or shut up time for Fhule, Cam would actually help him bridge the time between "rebuild" and success. He could have had earlier success instead he gutted the engine instead of just tuning the suspension. Regardless of how anybody feels about Cam Newton personally, he sells tickets and bring eyes and attention for good or for worse. NOW people can finally see why Cams rookie response to a question was "to be an icon and entertainer" he's definitely an icon who belongs in his Panther uniform but he's underappreciated as an entertainer. People would just rather watch Cam. It's that simple.

He shtted all over Cam. He deserves to be fired for being so damn selfish and f'n clueless. THAT'S why he'll NEVER succeed in the NFL and Tepper looks like more of a fool every day.

It's not about "winning" it's about "my way". Well his way is amateur. His guys wouldn't be on any other NFL roster. Rhule is still being enabled against the wishes of diehards and the average pundit. Only explanation I could give is that maybe Tepper doesn't want to improve this team, maybe they are conditioning the fan base to be happy about being .500, properly putting the Panthers in their place as far as the NFL is concerned. Other than that only explanation is high stupidity.

Cheating piece of poo shouldn't have been officiating SB50 with all his family being Broncos fans.

Cut to the chase why doesn't he? Yeah, more and more it really seems so.

Hi Cam, see you back here where you belong next season. Your realness among the cowards and frauds reminded everyone what a real professional is and this team would be absolutely stupid not to retain you with no starting QB (Sam is a backup at best). Everyone would rather watch you continue to set records.

Tepper instead of trying to save face needs to wise up fast and change that face. That face sucks

Asking him to hire a coach that's better than himself......lol.......and you think he's capable of doing that...

The pundits loving up on Sam told me everything I need to know... Cam will never get credit for anything good he does. Sams play will receive excuse after excuse. Yeah, Sam is at best a NFL backup and most pundits are full of sht.

Cam played absolutely great considering he came back off of his couch to be THE best QB on an NFL team. That says he still belongs. Hold those goodbye's and stay tuned. Cam is the leader this squad needs. Unselfish, takes responsibility, takes blame while not pointing fingers. We still haven't seen what Cam has become since NE due to Rhule but the crap fans saying he looked terrible throwing are in their feelings not reality. Robby said he should start for a reason. Long live QB1!!!

Great insight! He was brought back by ownership perhaps as a security blanket.

Games are not even close. If he was a player he would have been cut.

Why do they protect and coddle Sam and look for every opportunity to put Cam down? The contrast in treatment is astounding.

Not insanity?! No. Like buying the house of the guy who fired you only to bulldoze it?! Seems totally rational and not the least bit nutty

A coach who gets the crap TOTALLY kicked out out him game after game is just the guy to turn it around next season..... NOT!

Baby Sammy getting coddled and protected by coaches and pundits alike, no wonder. But Cam....
