As long as Hurney is here I still hate everything.

Welp, Big Tepp isn't fugging around.

Many believe this is only the start of several changes in Carolina. Analytics, I'm told, will play a big role going forward.

My guess is Hurney is let go after the season is over.  If so, very interesting that Ron is shown the door during the season but Hurney gets the respect and allowed to finish the season.

I don't really think it's about respect. I think it's worse to be a dead man walking...

It also gives Ron

1. A chance an opening quicker than others if he wants it

2. Tepper said he had too much respect for rivera to do things behind his back

what Tepper did too courage and he didn’t leave Ron to twist in the wind   I respect it

This! No point keeping the guy around already knowing you will can him. Imagine if we went on one of those Rivera December runs and went 9-7. Tepper would feel like a complete douche having to fire him regardless, good choice avoiding such an awkward scenario all together.

This needed to happen. Now we can actually see who needs to stay and who needs to go.

Wonder if Kyle is still the move at QB?
