David Tepper purchased the Carolina Panthers six years ago. And in each of those six seasons since, they’ve known nothing but disappointment.
Tepper spoke with reporters this morning, a little over 24 hours after firing Frank Reich amidst a 1-10 start. With Reich being the third head coach to get the boot under his reign, Tepper was asked if he has to reevaluate his own approach moving forward.
“Look, things are constantly evolving, and they’ll continue to evolve,” he replied to Joe Person of The Athletic. “Tryin’ to make things better is what you always try to do. Obviously, that record is not good enough. There’s no hiding it, it is what it is—like everything in this sport. Everything’s left on the field, everybody knows what it is every week. That record’s that record. And, like I said, it’s not good enough. We’re gonna self-reflect and make it better.”
That record in Tepper’s six years currently sits at 30-63, the second-worst in the NFL over that span. Unsurprisingly, each of those campaigns has resulted in a losing record—the longest such stretch in franchise history.
