OT: Panthers fire Reich

[football karma]

not even a year

when it comes to owners -- be careful what you wish for

David Tepper has made some pretty interesting decisions in his short tenure as owner of the Panthers

Just cuz Teppers might be loony doesn’t make Bidwill a good owner.

Just cuz Teppers might be loony doesn’t make Bidwill a good owner.

I don't think that was his point. If Bidwill was to sell the team, there's no guarantee you're getting somebody like Robert Kraft.. you could just as easily get someone like Dan Snyder. The devil you know...

OK, I am willing to take a chance, who else is with me?

IF rumors are true, Tepper should fire himself for picking Young over Stroud.

 

[TheCardFan]

This MIGHT help light a fire under the Panthers to win a couple of games this year, which will help our draft pick.

Can't be worse.

One thing is consistent here...

Tepper confirms himself as the worst owner in the league.

lots of diff between:

a new owner isnt always good

and

Bidwill is a good owner

thats the other one -- reportedly the FO and staff wanted Stroud -- and the owner overruled them

 

[BritCard]

100% it was Tepper. The man is a control freak and no way they make that decision unless it's the decision he wants.Whether others wanted Stroud it's hard to say, but certainly Tepper wanted Young.

 

[Dback Jon]

OK, I am willing to take a chance, who else is with me?

Same. Really Bidwill is already the worst owner in the league, so what would the difference be?

 

[BritCard]

Must be nice to go 1-10, get fired, and get paid through 2026.

This is what I'm thinking. They still play the Saints, Falcons and bucs twice so I'm hopeful

 

[Chopper0080]

He is a meddler for sure. Didn't figure it was important to let his GM and HC pick the QB they felt best about. Now he has a small, unathletic QB to try to build around.

 

[football karma]

FWIW: just went back and looked at all the new owners since 2000 -- my letter grades for the owners

ATL Arthur Blank. C-
BALT Steve Biscotti A+
BUFF Terry Pegula B+
CAR David Tepper F
CLEV Jimmy Haslem D
JAX S. Khan C
MIA S. Ross rallying for a C+
MINN Z. Wilf B
JETS Johnson D
RAMS Kroenke B+

They got their Josh Rosen

Arthur Blank got the Falcons to the Super Bowl. What are we even grading here?

Stephen Ross lost draft picks for tampering/tanking.

Arthur Blank got the Falcons to the Super Bowl. What are we even grading here?

so did Mike Bidwill, but im not giving him a C kinda grade

the Falcons have been a .500 football team in his ownership. Maybe better marks for being one of the class acts during his tenure

C+? B-

Heard Schefter say today, owners are paying over $800 million to fired coaches. He also predicted 7-10 fired HC's this year.

So stupid.

Why are HC salaries guaranteed in the NFL and college?

 

[unseenaz]

Seemed like a strange hire at the time. Reich has now been fired midseason 2 years in a row.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Weren't there some here wanting us to hire him?

 

[TRW]

Staley and McCown also gonzo.
