From what is rumored it seems Dave is listening to too many people. He's collecting data like Google and doing what with it is yet to reveal itself.  The only thing we can do is sit back and see what old mastermind comes up with. 

i guess i should have clarified...

does he have someONE advising him. someone who knows their poo.

i'm just along for the ride at this point for GM and HC. 

i really have no bandwagon i'm jumping on. i've got no dog in this fight. whatever happens, happens.

 

Everyone should have this mindset. There isn't a damn thing any of us can do about any of this. Getting excited or upset is fruitless. It is what it is.

the thing about the search firm is...who is putting in the parameters for what we're looking for at HC and GM? 

Does tepper still have in his head what he wants and sticking to his guns or does he have someone advising him on what he should be looking for?

Maybe they realized it's a hard sell so uh, just call everyone you can think of. Of course it's some ex soccer guy that just helped him hire his 3rd Charlotte FC coach lol.

If the rumors are true he's listening to "everyone". What the search firms role in this has yet to be determined.

haha truth.  I would typically be all excited to dive into prospective candidates.  

Now, I'm just like - no old over the hill dudes or guys that will be a fish out of water.

Any of these promising DCs, OCs, sure, whatever.  

Johnson, Canales, Slowick, MacDonald, let's see what's next in this carnival of madness.

GM wise, we'll see who the search narrows it down to.

i do know that whoever it is, i'm not going to get too excited or pissed off. at this point it/they (the panthers) just aren't worth it.

Whoever signs on to try to turn this team around will have more difficulty dealing with Tepper than attempting to fix this roster. And this roster is ass. Let that sink in for a minute.

I'm just in for the morbid entertainment of seeing exactly how bad David Tepper can thoroughly fug a franchise.

Trading capital for 72 year old washed up Belichick got Tepper’s name written all over it.

To be fair, on paper the soccer head coach is a home run hire. Obviously time will tell.

Trading next year's 1st for Belichick and then Belichick just saying "fug this, I retire" would be

Wouldn’t there be some protections if that happened? No way the NFL would allow a team to keep a first round pick traded if the asset you traded for retired.

This also applies to the NFL Draft.
