Tepper strikes me as a results now kinda guy. Even when he was saying it was a 5-year process, I didn't really think he would be that patient. I think he expects a winning record in 2021 and playoffs thereafter. I also think no one in the building thinks Teddy is going to get us there. I don't sense any kind of panic, but I do think Rhule learns from his mistakes and knows he/Brady/whoever made one with Teddy and wants to quickly rectify that.

Biggest thing for me is that going after Stafford wasn't a "process" thing.

We reek of desperation right now. Desperation most often times results in poor decision making coupled with even worse decisions trying to mask the poor ones that were previously made (ie hanging on to Ron and Marty to long, signing TB, extending Shaq and Not Bradberry). 
 

Our owner, as a hedge fund manager, should know this.

Tepper may have talked the talk about being patient but we've shown borderline desperation at the QB position this off-season. The reality of Teddy being what Teddy has always been evidently really caught us off guard. I have no idea why, but as an organization we seem really shook by this.

I don't know what it is about this team sometimes. Many times us fans on a message board could've made better decisions that the ones that played out. Something about being here in Carolina raises the egos of everyone in charge and blinds them.

I have no idea how we missed the Teddy evaluation so badly. Many of us called it pretty much exactly how it would go because there was ample evidence available that Teddy was a low ceiling utterly risk adverse QB who somehow still has a pretty bad TD:INT ratio. He throws an average amount of INTs while throwing for a significantly below average number of TDs.

With Marty Hurney...

"This is gonna take a while, maybe up to five years. I ask you to trust the process."

Scott Fitterer takes over...

"We'll offer you the number eight overall pick, our fifth rounder and Teddy Bridgewater in exchange for Matt Stafford. What do you think?"

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
