Tepper says 5 year minimum for Rhule.

My care just hit an all time low. Tepper is an idiot.

Lol, Tepper still makes $ on this franchise and the buildings by using them for not just the Panthers, but other events. Hes not hurting on long build or floundering around. Well as long as enough tickets are sold and don't go truly unsold from the Panthers (attendance be damned) he won't hurt. Now maximizing $ on game day sales, yeah that's hurting with the stadium not being full, and that's on a poo product the Panthers currently provide and not all opposing teams are going to travel enough to fill up the stadium with panther fans staying home.

I am still a little perplex what Rhule/anyone has said that keeps Tepper on board for 2 more after 2022. That's crazy pants. If they regress the next 2 years is he really going to give a crazy 5th year. Heck if he get another vet QB and again regresses or treads water, another year after a 3rd wrong QB eval?

I'll grant Rhule this: his D progressed thru year 1 and again from year 1 ending thru most of year 2. Now part of that was it regressed from before Rhule to his 1sr half of year 1 (one of the worst in history). Also the offense flamed out hard and regressed from year 1 to year 2, would say St was pretty poor all 3 years too. 2 steps back for every step forwards gotta stop. He needs to atleast maintain on D or progress on all fronts this year or why keep the this poo going.

This is counter cultural for typical management. When dudes as smart as Tepper do things that are patient and counter cultural….it usually pays off. 

Has Tepper’s way been patient?   He keeps saying Rome wasn’t built in a day when his record is referenced. 

But Tepper isn’t actually patient.  Part of the problem IMO.   Which has lead to poor decisions.

Good, Matt is rad

Tepper has to know he gets no consideration for a new stadium if he does not listen to the fans and his sacred coach can't win

Said Rhule is building a foundation that he knew would take five years. Then he said heck, maybe 6 years.

 

I feel sick. 

Utterly ridiculous. There are no guarantees that long in football. 

[CanadianCat]

Well nothing other than 'i just fired him' would have made most of you happy. 
 

- Some positives I take from that statement is that we dont need to reach for a QB.
- Rhule and Fitt can draft their board without drafting for the short term 

If we suck this year, Rhule will be gone. But as an owner you need to give assurances to your people that their jobs are safe until THE MOMENT you fire them or else they male dumb decisions. 

[WOW!!]

All my question got answered..

I don't know what some of you are mad about??

The Huddle big brains really think Tepper publicly trashing the head coach and QB of his football team is conducive to building a functional football organization lol.

[YourLastThought]

5 years minimum...maybe 6. Oh god, please do not be serious. Now this is depressing news. Surely he is just screwing around I hope?

Yeah, it's time to revert back to my pre-Peppers fandom. General NFL fan with favorite players I like to watch more so than favorite teams with a casual interest in the Panthers as the local team but with nothing concrete to solidify myself as a true Panthers fan. I mean, that's basically where I am. Tepper has stripped everything I loved away from the Panthers so yeah... that's kinda where I'm at. I don't anticipate watching a whole lot of Panthers games moving forward. I'll pay attention to see if there any signs of change or evolvement but I'm not expecting it.

Very good - can you officially be stripped of your moderator role (if you still have it) of a Panthers fan board since you won’t be paying much attention to the Panthers?

Lol exactly.  I’m amazed at how dumb people can be.
