One thing I'd say: if you actually do want David Tepper to notice, you can't insult him. That'd be a surefire way to make him not listen. You just have to keep it simple and say something like "please stay out of all football decisions and hire a consultant" or something along those lines.
-
Don't think I torched you (and sorry if you felt I did) but I still don't buy the argument that Wilks would have turned things around.
-
I don't want to trade Ekwonu either. I just want to move him.
-
I've been of the mind that Tepper needed to stay out of things for a while now. My thing is I don't have specific recommendations outside of that...the lone exception being to suggest Kevin Colbert as the consultant.
-
Don't know about that idea, but I've pretty much already written what I'd say. Just keep it simple: Tell him to stop meddling in football decisions and hire a consultant to evaluate the entire organization.
-
Because he actually does work in our current scheme and we've already got enough rebuilding to do without making it worse.
-
I don't wanna trade Moton. Christensen at LT is definitely an option but I don't know that it's the best long term option.
-
You sure about that? Might wanna recheck who I wanted us to draft...
-
The protection problems make it extremely hard to properly evaluate him.
-
Best answer I could give to that honestly is this... If you were to ask me who was the better quarterback between Joe Montana and Dan Marino, I'd say Dan Marino. But ask me (or anyone, honestly) who had the better career, pretty much everybody is going to say Montana. The difference, of course, was the teams around them. That's where we have to look as well...
-
The question is self-awareness. Bad bosses tend not to know they're bad bosses.
-
You could make a pretty good argument that he looked decent yesterday...minus a couple of absolute killer plays. But then you can't rightly take those plays out of the equation, so...
-
O can't get there without knowing for certain where Tepper stood in this. If he's meddling, he's got no business firing anybody, But even if he didn't, I have so little trust in him that I wouldn't want him making so much as one more decision.
-
That's a nightmare scenario to me, especially if it involves Tepper making the decisions,
-
Wouldn't go that far There are definitely some positives on the team and some things to build around. It is, however, valid to say they are in the first year of a rebuild.
-
That is a pet peeve I have with Frank. Also have some questions about the depth chart / personnel decisions given the last two games. Still think it's too soon to wrote him off, though,
-
Everybody else did too, and largely because they knew it wasn't a real option.
-
It being his choice is part of the question, but even if it is a lot of great drafters have whiffed on QB picks before. Hell, Bobby Beathard was a legend but he's also known as the guy who traded up to take Ryan Leaf.
-
No, not solely on McCown. Just as an example, one of the rumors re: Stroud is that the S2 test eliminated him in Tepper's eyes.
-
Nobody was ever getting Jackson away from the Ravens. The non-exclusive tag was only put there to let other teams negotiate parameters that the Ravens would have just matched.
-
I wouldn't go that far on either the franchise or Young. It's one thing to say Stroud might be better, another thing entirely to say Young is bad. Young still has plenty of strengths that can be built on.
-
Don't think I've ever said any different about Tepper. I did say he was at least capable of learning, but Reich's comments about his level of involvement have me concerned again.
-
I've come to accept that Moton at LT is just never gonna happen. Fir the scheme we're running though, it'd make some sense. What I think (hope) ultimately happens is he goes to left guard and we got a more WCO type tackle next year.
-
That's a real possibility.
-
I think you ultimately do but It's a pretty tough discussion to have right now
