They are rebuilding

If they had anymore JAG's (and less than JAG's) on this team, they wouldn't be able to field a team. How low do you want them to go? People want them to rebuild, well starting from rock bottom is "rebuilding".

The only true and proven player is done for the season. They traded all the real talent away. I'd say with the lack of talent on this team it's a rebuild and not a retool.

They also need to rebuild the culture since all these people know how to do is lose. That building needs an enema and the Tepper's need a manager to run their team so they can show up for photo ops and cash checks.  Burn it all down and treat it like an expansion team I guess.

Nice edit I was confused on your original post.

They don't need to do anything.

 

The problem is Tepper doesn't need to be making decisions. It doesn't matter if we rebuild he will still make terrible decisions that will cost us in the short and long-term.

 

Y'all want the #1 pick yet Tepper will be in charge of selecting the QB. He doesn't know football. He shouldn't be making decisions on anything.

They need someone to run the team for them. Unfortunately that means he still needs to make 1 hire which is something he hasn't yet done well.

That entire organization should be blown up. They keep reshuffling the deck chairs and nothing changes.

All I can think of is they hire a good consultant who makes the hires and the Teepers get to sign a contract that blocks them from being hands on. In reality they will continue to drive the team into the ground but that's all I have at turning this away from what they built.

I think they know the roster isn’t winning now. They drafted like they know it’s a tear down and build up.  XL is not a polished year 1 player. Brooks was never intended to be a key piece this season coming off injury.

This off season they got an upbeat energetic young coach. They got Brandt Tillis from a winning organization to work with Dan to tear it down and build it up.

The sad question is how much leash Tepper gives them. Bryce is gonna play this year out but is Tepper willing to call it a sunk cost and move on at years end?

I am willing to be patient with the coaching staff and Morgan because yep they are not playing to the scoreboard so much as the drawing board. 
I do need to see a reason other than tanking to send Young out there if he doesn’t start getting better results. I don’t mean wins, just helping rather than dragging it down.

I think most of us saw it as rebuilding.  I would love to come out with win after win but that's impossible when you have the talent we do.  They have potential but that's what you look for in a rebuild.

They've already done that, they've brought in dawgs remember.

      Anyone left who does not believe in Bryce ?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't need my QB to have arm talent for me to like them, but I do put a lot of weight to how it can affect that player's max potential when it's as bad as Bryce's is, particularly when combined with his overall size.  Even the most ardent Bryce supporters can't honestly deny that Bryce is likely to have the weakest arm of all starting QB's his entire career, maybe some year's he's only in the Bottom 5, but short of pumping steroids, that's never going to change. I'm not a historian of the league on QB's arm strength compared to others, but how many players with that weak of an arm compared to the rest of the league, also was an above average QB for a sustained period of time? I know Brees didn't have a great arm and that's the comparison people like to use for Bryce, but again, he's smaller and weaker armed than even Brees was, and Brees is one of the biggest outliers in NFL history as is.  Which is why Bryce was also betting on him becoming THE biggest outlier in league history at the position.  Bryce doesn't need to become any certain type of QB for me to like him or to be considered a success.  But he does need to become a QB who raises the play of your team, who can drag you to wins when needed, and has you as a contender in more years than not (all teams have down years, but the great QB's have their teams winning playoff games more years than not). It's why I didn't want to draft Bryce, because I just never did, and still don't, think he has that potential in him for a long period of time and at a high level.  Can we put the perfect team around him and we get the right schedule in any given year for a player like him to lead us to a high seed and maybe make a run, sure of course.   But those teams don't have sustained success because it takes the perfect combination of rookie contracts and lucky picks/signings that all pan out at the right time.  They have a great regular season, flame out in the playoffs, and then go back to being that team that either just misses the playoffs or just makes it in to lose in the first round every year.  Picking in the 13-20 range every year, always missing out on the true elite talent in the draft but still not contending. Is that who fans want us to become?  I know it's better than what we've been for a while, but I want better for my team, I love our Panthers and I want us to win the Super Bowl. Prove me wrong, I want to be wrong, I don't want to be stuck in NFL purgatory, I don't want to need to have to find a new QB in 2 or 3 years because we still can't get into the playoffs. But I am who I am, and I am someone who doesn't keep his team colored glasses on at all times to only looks at the positive, I look at realities and call them how I see them.  And I see Bryce as our path to NFL purgatory at best right now and it scares the living hell out of me. Bryce, prove me wrong.
