The Carolina Panthers are a hot mess. Even glancing at them for a few seconds this season can show you that. However, going after a few low blows against an irrelevant and dead franchise is too easy. We have to go deeper (like a few inches deeper): We have to look at new owner David Tepper's reign.

It hasn't been good so far, but a lot of new owners take plenty of missteps. This is a crossroads for the organization. Will he right the ship? Or will he double down on his current way of doing things and continue to keep Carolina in the muck.

This is more a video to look back on in a few years to see if things have changed. Let's hope it does.
