Non issue.  Classic negotiating.

”Let me talk to my boss” to slow things down and gain leverage, which they did.

If Teppers tenure hadnt been filled with blunder after blunder and had been even a tiny bit successful, maybe. I'd see it more as weakness from GM who doesn't have any real power and the ultimate decision rests with a man that doesn't know football.

"running it by the owner" is not an issue. It's just overblown with Tepper's history of meddling. Giants owner Mara was involved about the possibility of losing Saquan to Philly. These are multimillion dollar transactions of the owner's money, I would want to know if I had to pay that.

Considering it was Brian Burns, I'm sure Tepper had to sign-off on it. There is probably 1-4 players on the roster with that status. I highly doubt he would have needed approval if it was somebody like DiCaprio Bootle.

yeah, Tepper most likely has been very involved in all of our bad trades.   The constant.  Because we have traded a lot of top players and capital. 

and general grade there is pretty bad.

Nothing overblown about Tepper at this stage. 

Tepper has 5 seasons in the books as the Panthers owner.  5 different men have taken the field as our HC in that time span. 

Tepper has a soccer team.  3 years in.  3 different men have taken the field as their HC. 

Frankly, Tepper being in a small market with teams no one cares about..... gets less heat than someone in a different city would be getting.

Right, that is the normal way teams operate when it comes to franchise players.  Sounds like the deal was in place, Morgan ran it by Tepper, and he approved it.  If it was Tepper saying "we need to trade X player or acquire this player" then yeah it would fall under the "meddling" label he has been assigned with.  This appears to be some what normal.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
