owner David Tepper is very likely to endeavor in his second head coach search in just four-plus years of ownership. Panthers fans should hope the search goes better than his Monday pre s conference.Tepper spent the first 20 minutes of his half-hour pre ser navigating well the questions of why his seven-year, $62 million coach didn't work out. In the final 10 minutes, the hedge fund billionaire turned "aggre sive, defensive and spiteful," according to one AFC team staffer, revealing his combative, sharp-elbowed nature that helped him get on the Forbes list but has soured his southern fanbase and many observers around the league."I heard dealing with him makes it hard to do your job," said one NFC personnel executive. "Similar to the pre s conference, dealing with that every day. ...""Contrition is not a big trait of his," said a high- Mitchell Schwartz Jersey ranking club executive."He wears his frustrations on his sleeve," said a different high-ranking club executive, who gave the most charitable read of Tepper among the nearly dozen sources contacted by CBS Sports. "Introspective, humbling pre s conferences are not what you normally see in the NFL."  Said one agent: "Any coach with options will use him for leverage."Steve Wilks is now the interim head coach in Carolina after Matt Rhule received his walking papers after beginning his third season 1-4. The Panthers went 11-27 under Rhule, and they now have to begin  Daniel Sorensen Jersey the final 12 games of this season with and as their two healthy quarterbacks.Why is a coaching search inevitable for Tepper? Could the next permanent head coach of the Panthers be the current interim?"No promises were made," Tepper said Monday. "But if he does an incredible job, he'd have to be considered for that."  Interims rarely get the job. Rich Bisaccia took over a 3-2 team last year riddled with controversies, went 7-5 in the final 12 games and made the playoffs in a difficult AFC West and still didn't get the permanent job.Wilks is known for a warm but direct leadership style with his players. A Charlotte native, Wilks is in his second stint with the Panthers after having previously served as the defensive coordinator there in 2017. That same year the interviewed him for their head coach opening that ultimately went to Sean McVay.The hired Wilks in  Bashaud Breeland Jersey 2018 to be their head coach. Sources have indicated he was strongly encouraged to hire Mike McCoy as offensive coordinator. The club went into the year with as their starter and rookie , taken 10th in the draft, as the backup. Bradford would never again play in the NFL after that season and Rosen was just released from his sixth team in five years. Wilks also had to navigate a training camp without GM Steve Keim, who was suspended for a July 2018 arrest of driving under the influence.  Wilks also oversaw a failed defensive overhaul where he attempted to take Arizona from a 3-4 defense and turn it into a 4-3 defense. Arizona went 3-13 that season and owner Michael Bidwill fired Wilks after just one year.Wilks has since joined Brian Flores' discrimination lawsuit, claiming he was hired in Arizona as a "bridge coach." That lawsuit remains ongoing."I'm not going to really go down that road and talk about what's fair,'' Wilks said earlier this week when asked about his shot in Arizona.  He now has a 12-game audition to do an "incredible job" in Carolina.         Pick Six Newsletter   Crafted By Marcus Allen Jersey  The Best NFL Experts   Get the day's big stories + fun stuff you love like mock drafts, picks and power rankings.     I agree to receive the "Pick Six Newsletter" and marketing communications, updates, special offers (including partner offers), and Tyrann Mathieu Jersey  other information from CBS Sports and the Paramount family of companies.  By pre sing sign up, I confirm that I have read and agree to the and acknowledge Paramount's .                 Please check the opt-in box to acknowledge that you would like to subscribe.       Thanks for signing up!   Keep an eye on your inbox.     Sorry!   There was an error proce sing your subscription.     Teams have been calling the Panthers about some of their veteran players. Carolina is a distre sed a set in the NFL world, and with two weeks to go before the trade deadline, wouldn't it want to send off some of its hefty contracts before presumably starting over again in 2023?Not exactly. Sources there have been adamant that they aren't interested in trading away receiver and defensive end . The same at this point goes for third-year defensive tackle .They'd save $12 million in 2023 cap space with a trade. They'd very likely cut him outright before the start of the new league year if no trade partner materializes by Halloween.  And while teams are calling about , the Panthers have not engaged in any serious trade talks. Carolina isn't just going to give away one of the league's best weapons when healthy. The , , Rams and are among the teams that have shown varying degrees of interest Cameron Erving Jersey  in McCaffrey.Should the losing continue in Charlotte this year, the Panthers could have a top-three pick in next year's NFL Draft. The fifth-year options of and will be off the books, and the team would be able to start fresh with a rookie quarterback in the latest new era of Panthers football.Tepper sees what's happened in the NFL lately: Up-and-coming offensive coordinators who have engineered quick succe s like Matt LaFleur, Nick Sirianni, Brian Daboll and Kevin O'Connell. ( coach Mike McDaniel was the run game coordinator in San Francisco or else he'd also be included here.)  Tepper bet on a college coach and lost. On Monday, after telling a story of how he recently had a dinner with an Armani Watts Jersey  NFL team owner of several decades, Tepper admitted that "I'm still learning, quite frankly."Since his official purchase of the Carolina Panthers went through in 2018, Tepper has:Fired incumbent head coach Ron RiveraFired incumbent GM Marty HurneyHired and fired head coach Matt RhuleHired Panthers president Tom Glick, who then "stepped aside" le s than four years laterHired Nick Kelly as president of his MLS team Charlotte FC, promoted Kelly to CEO of Tepper Sports & Entertainment (the parent company of the NFL and MLS teams), then saw Kelly "step down" as CEO three months laterStarted and stopped the construction of an $800 million team headquarters in South CarolinaSeen the Panthers go 23-47 under his ownershipBut Tepper defended his overall record Monday. He noted how he's taken Bank of America Stadium as a mostly football-only venue and brought in several concerts along with a Major League Soccer franchise that cost him a $325 million entry fee.  "In this organization just as an aside away from football, in these four years including two COVID years, we've brought in, besides football, we brought in a soccer team that's setting records and bringing 34,000 people and revitalizing the city," NFL Kansas City Chiefs Jersey  Tepper said. "We brought music back  not back to Charlotte, there never was music in Charlotte, you know, with concerts. We reopened restaurants because of wha
