To sell tickets, period. Tepper needs a Harbaugh, so he can learn from him. I agree on Wilks that ship sailed.

I seriously doubt Harbaugh would want to come here and have weekly meetings with David Tepper.

Word is he wants the Bears job, and there's a pretty good chance he could get it.

Belichick has absolutely lost it. Selling tickets might be the only thing he'd accomplish.

I can't believe Belichick's name is being thrown out there. It's pretty clear that his success was the product of being lucky enough to have Brady. How much better is New England this year than the Panthers? (not much)

The special teams coach was the only one willing to take on the job

Is this something you read, saw posted or something you made up?

Just when you think the Panthers can't look any worse. Tepper has destroyed the team. Two years in a row firing the head coach midseason is a joke. No one worth a poo will want to work for him. Frank Reich now has the 2nd shortest tenure as a non-interim head coach in NFL history. Disgraceful. Tepper needs to be chased out of Charlotte.

I'm cool with the decision, he should have never been hired. Another wrong decision.

[UnluckyforSome]

Tepper should go coach the team. Then he can fire himself at season's end.

Reich deserved to be fired for not sitting Bryce for a season.

Frank Reich also becomes the first NFL head coach since the 1970 merger to be fired in back-to-back seasons

there have only been six NFL head coaches since the merger who didn't finish their first season with their team, with three of those instances having come in the past three seasons: Urban Meyer (Jaguars), Nathaniel Hackett (Broncos) and Reich.

Fitterer should have gone before Frank.  And the rest of the " management" circus that got us to this state.  Complete clusterfug.

That's probably about his only chance of getting decent candidates.

That said, I seriously question whether Tepper knows how to identify "real football people".

He has been around them in Pittsburgh. I’m sure he knows who are real “football guys” in the league. His problem is going to be reaching out to them and admitting he needs help and he can’t build what he wants himself.

This hiring process is going to be very telling about what tepp (and his wife) have learned so far in owning a franchise.  If its a repeat of last go around then we are truly truly fuged
