Tepper is getting destroyed in the media

Tonight's INSIDE THE NFL didn't hold back on comments

Chad Ochocinco said that changing out the HC isn't going to make a difference if the player quality is still the same under new regime.

They threw in comments about Tepper being a billionaire and playing with a shiny toy. "That's not how football works"

Worth the 3m listen, starting around the 17m mark into the hour

In other words, six years in, Tepper’s had an interim coach for 22% of his games.

How does that happen? Well, it goes back to that saying: Don’t let one mistake become two.

“His thing is, the minute it gets bad, it’s going to get worse, so we better try something else,” says one former Panthers staffer. “He’s a hedge fund guy; that’s what hedge fund guys do. The second something stops earning money, they take their money out of it, take the profit and move on to something else.”

“He doesn’t care about the money,” says a former Panthers coach. “He looks at it like a stock—you make a poor investment, there’s a sunk cost, boom, you move on.”

I don’t give a damn about Tepper. He will be OK.
what I don’t like is these people in the media who watched like 2 quarters of the Panthers all season going to bat for a coach that clearly was not working 

Exactly right 

it was absolutely not working offensively 

waiting another six weeks wasn’t anything but torment for all involved with this putrid jr. High offense and dare I say, jr high qb 

Frank now can retire fully with at last $50 million from two NFL owners 

I’m not a Tepper fan but I also don’t believe he is the antichrist.

Hire the right person and all will be forgotten as was with Jed York and other owners 

in my case, older now, can’t wait this out, don’t want to wait it out 

that’s the issue with pro sports and being a fan thereof

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      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.
