This is very unlikely, but I can imagine that post-Snyder the rest of the owners don't want to deal with anyone with similar vibes, and Tepper probably isn't as entrenched as Snyder was so kicking him out wouldn't be as hard

Tepper is clearly a dickhead but let's not pretend he's anywhere near the walking PR hurricane that Snyder was. other owners don't care about owners meddling or being assholes to employees or homeboy in Arizona would have been out a while ago. and let's not forget that Snyder was actively cheating other owners out of shared revenue. Tepper's not threatening the league's reputation or anyone's pockets so they have no reason to want to force him out

Tepper should be gone and the only actual reason he shouldn't be, none of whatever the mess in the above post is, is that the last time the Panthers got rid of their lovely owner they were replaced by someone worse, and that can be repeated more easily than finding a competent non-meddling non-rear end in a top hat replacement

But I could see Peter King going after him because King got snubbed or something by Tepper and he's being spiteful. Maybe Tepper blew him off and King was like "I'm the company man, you can't be rude to me"

Re: Tepper, my guess is that he's rocked the apple cart so much about how things are supposed to be done that the league and/or other owners want him to settle down? It's not good for the league to have just one team ending up with the #1 pick every year and running a clown car operation where an established coach like Reich gets fired faster than Urban Meyer or Nathaniel Hackett did.

Just like a coordinated message that his meddling is so invasive and deleterious that it's actually crossed a line.

The league has been pretty salty lately about all the dead money being paid out in coaches contracts, and Tepper has been one of the worst offenders. That might be something that's pissing off the other owners that they'd call out the hit squad for.

As a hypocrite that wants my team's head coach fired for not even actually technically missing the playoffs yet, I feel like you gotta give Tomlin one more chance with a real QB.

Or if King was friends with one of the guys who got fired like Reich or McCown. I could see him looking and how things went down, maybe getting some info from them or other guys he knows still on the staff and knowing what they’re facing, and King deciding to go hard on Tepper.

Mark Davis isn't sabotaging his teams by meddling at every opportunity, he's just a loving idiot who favors big names when it comes to coaches, regardless whether they're actually any good.

At least he seems to actually be trying to field a good team, he's just really inept at it.

Unless Tomlin is the one responsible for either drafting or acquiring Ruldolph/Mitch/Pickett I have no clue why you would fire him over back to back losses. Like what he's doing with the Steelers post-Roethlisberger is what you'd expect Belichick to do Post-Brady which is actually win games

On one of the most recent episodes of The Athletic Football Show with the Steelers beat writer, they mentioned that Tomlin has a pretty big say in personnel.

But yeah, I can't imagine them firing Tomlin either.
