Tepper

[54th man]

Just wanted to say that I know alot of Panther fans are torn about our owner. They either like him and how he is trying to bring a winner here or they hate him and think he is destroying the team. Alot of fans are on the fence saying the jury is still out or they are indifferent. But I am so glad that we dint have Jerry Jones punk ass or that piece of poo Dan Snyder, so I'll take Tepper all day over these clowns.

I fully believe that Tepper is going to do whatever is in his power to bring a Championship team to Charlotte.  I may be in the minority around here, but I love what he has done so far.  Its a breath of fresh air compared to Richardson.

Definitely an upgrade over JR. The rest remains to be seen. At least he will provide the necessary resources that an organization needs to win consistently.

I would rather try something new than keep hoping the same old formula that's failed for years suddenly starts to work.

Is he, though? As far as not having any allegations against him, sure. But aside from putting the logo at midfield, what's he done to build a winner?

Since Tepper bought the Panthers their record is 17-31.

I mean he’s investing in new facilities, he’s shown a willingness to move towards the more modern way of thinking in terms of team building etc.

How many years did JR have here? Now how many years had Tepper been here? And when Tepper came we pretty much lost our former MVP QB and a host of elite defenders.

Comparing them at this point is silly. JR had decades. Can we give Tep more than 4 years before we start asking “what has he done to be better than JR?”

Seriously? You really expect to see a winner in two season?  I think he has done very well.  He's brought in a coach that is pointing us in the right direction.  Hired a GM that has many of us excited.

Good or bad he is determined to get a quality QB and will do whatever it takes to make it happen.

Tepper sucks. I wish Felix had gotten the team.

We’ll see how many of the ‘Tepper sucks’ crowd is still howling in 2022 when we have lots of money to throw around, a new QB, and our young talent on D is ready to make a run. 
 

Anyone already throwing shade at Tepper who inherited a QB and cap that were not in ideal form is either ignorant about building a franchise or impatient. I’m thinking/hoping it’s mostly the latter. 

[kungfoodude]

To be determined. He talks a good game, so let's see if he can produce the desired results. I am sure Dan Snyder and Jerry Jones once had optimistic fans behind them too.

While this is true, his first 2 seasons he didn't touch the football side of the organization. That was still Richardson's guys. We can fault him for that I guess. Last season was the first that he concentrated on the football side and we got and up and coming head coach with a modern philosophy signed long term for stability and now we have the same in our new GM. The results from last season were better than anyone's expectations even with this plague. The moves made during this off season are much better than we've been used to. It's still way too early to judge but I think so far things are looking more promising than at anytime since we almost won the SB. Hopefully, that feeling lasts longer this time.
