David Tepper meddling

And the fact that he feels the need to find every camera in Charlotte and be his own personal hype man for the moves he’s making just scream lack of confidence. don’t boast until you’ve had success. real Gs move in silence like lasagna.

“Hurney is the greatest talent evaluator Eva”

”Matt rhule is the best program builder EVERRR and will build us into a perennial championship contender with all of my infinite resources”

 

yeah....prove it

If he can put a good team out there and constantly be contenders then he can sing and dance in front of the cameras as far as I am concerned. JR was an arse but he meddled in the back ground which made it a lot harder to prove he was an issue, at least until the end. Tepper is really making himself a target and that seems risky if he craps the bed.

The only thing people get stuck on is Hurney...who will more than likely be replaced after May. People just love to bitch and complain about how they would do things if they ran an organization. He has done so many good Things thus far, and put a change in place that we have been begging for, but that all goes out the window because he is holding on to Hurney for a few extra months

he is also taking a huge risk on the most inexperienced, least proven coaching staff in the league and walking around with his chest puffed out bragging about them being program builders....while completely jettisoning the (former) face of the franchise. 

yeah, that rubs folks the wrong way...and for good reason.

Missing what David Tepper had done to meddle in the team he owns

Gave Ron a extra year, half the people here already hating on him we're pissed when he gave them the benefit of the doubt. 

Kept Marty Hurney. So firing everyone and drafting himself is what you wanted him to do? You can't make a decision on Marty... The GM everyone speculated Tepper wants AND Marty's contract expires in April... DT isn't going to tell the media Marty sucks, but we're stuck with him until after the draft. It's probably the truth, the Steelers GM will likely be hired and Marty will be head of scouting or assistant GM.

Brought a MLS team to Charlotte: god it's horrible to help our economy 

Building the team a REAL practice facility and complex.

News flash nostalgic people, you wanna whine about free agency, players don't like to practice in 100 degree days while sleeping in college bunk beds... All so you can go watch them on grass hills suffer for free. It doesn't give you a competitive advantage, it costs you FAs... Those same people who complain about wofford will talk about Jerry's ballroom. 

 

Cam Newton. Whether you like the decision or not, tepper hasn't even made one yet... Frankly, our franchise seems like Cam Newton featuring the Carolina Panthers. If Tepper feels like healthy Cam holds the team back, then I guess it's his investment. 

 

I feel there is a difference here then Jerry Jones (the one people love to compare him with) who is literally the GM of his football team... Even then, if you don't have 2.7 billion to offer tepper, vote with your wallet and root for another team. 

If you think owners are not involved, get real. Bill Belichick wanted to trade TB and keep JG, Robert Kraft stepped in knowing it would cause a circus. A franchise that has 6 rings this century... including one after that incident. 

You think The colts owner had no involvement in 2011 moving on from a multiple time leauge MVP, Super bowl winner, and career Colt QB Peyton Manning to get Andrew Luck? 

 

 

How did that last move work out for the Colts? Meanwhile Peyton broke the regular season record for TD passes in a season with Denver and then helped win them a Superbowl. How's Luck doing these days? xd.

I do think the biggest part of the unease is Hurney lingering around and us not bringing in an NFL minded guy to turn ship. 

Tepper owns the team and can do whatever the crap he wants, people have come to accept the weird dilemma we have with Cam, but Hurney creeping around this franchise is the most uneasy element of it all.  I would be entirely excited and interested in things right now if he was simply out of the picture or if we at least had a clear person here to take the GM spot over.  We keep hearing this is coming but when?

The jury is still very much out on Tepper, I think less than a handful of people are declaring him a terrible owner already. I'm willing to give him 2020 to show me something, and see how the path will be unfolding. But make no mistake, if we fail to acquire the next franchise QB within the next 2 years and we have big contracts on the books, the gloves are coming off.

Buck always stops with the QB. Doesn't matter if you have two Christian McCaffrey's in the backfield. People are going to ask who is throwing the ball. Quarterback worth his salt will always be the face of the franchise. If Cam is judged only by his W/L record meaning we go as he goes, why are you blubbering about people discussing him?

The Kansas City Chiefs wouldn't lose 25% of their fanbase by cutting Pat Mahommes… Hell, the Texans wouldn't lose many of their fans for moving Watson. You missed the point.

But the guy who sexually harassed woman, fired a GM for not paying old farts, and refused to put a roof over a place for our team to practice was better? If you're waiting for 2020, you'll be disappointed.

Where in that post was any of this said?

Zack I mean this kindly, but you don't seem like the sharpest knife in the drawer. Keep at it though I guess.

The fact is, what we do know about Tepper, is there have  been two losing, not pretty losing  seasons on his watch

we know he kept Rivera one season too long   

he will have kept Hurney three seasons too long 

we know he has hired a guy from college and has basically allowed the coaching staff be made into Baylor Mid Atlantic

we know he has not handled PSL holders well, only telling them two weeks before invoices come out, about losing seats they has for a couple of decades 

we know he has tried to strong  arm Charlotte on the current stadium tax rate 

we do not have facts on his handling of Newton, this remains to be seen, but Cam doesn’t strike me as someone who wants to look like a fool on Super bowl row 

In my mind, the jury is out on him   PSLs aren’t cheap For those who put their money into this team, if you can call it that
