Great coaching and an extremely talented QB sure do make a huge difference. Tepper can't find a decent talent evaluator to save him from himself and his coaching choices are not much better. I didn't even like the Texan's GM but maybe he has removed his head from his butt now? IDK on that one but holy crap the coaching side is legit.

Sure but those things are getting work done on them every couple of years anyways. BOA has had a few face lifts itself. I still guess it's just cheaper and easier to pay fans to do it. If the Bills aren't using it for more than football games in the winter then it probably is just a waste of money for them. Unless they can't get it cleared enough to put butts in seats at game time which is not a bet I would make. GB clears their stadium regularly like that and hasn't missed any games that I am aware of with tons of snow over the years.

I wondered why they didn't have it running through the concrete around the place but I guess they can just give a couple of tickets to guys willing to do it as a fan is my guess.

HAHAHA wow some great takes in here. Love to see the bump, it's well earned. This was one of the most painful and obnoxious offseason ever. All star staff, Bryce is special in a good way and playoffs in 23 just lolz that none of that was close to being true.

I predict Tepper fugs up this hiring cycle yet again and the team wins less than 5 games next year. Fans walk from PSLs after next year after the chunk that are walking early this year further embarrassing Tepper. Tepper has more outburst in his constant failures and embarrassments so that will be fun. Eventually Tepper finds another toy he has success with and spends less time as a hands-on NFL owner giving the team the ability to succeed without him in the room or building in a decade or so.

A HC and GM, both good candidates, have already been hired. He will end up with a bottom of the barrel guy while he is used for leverage and interviewing experience. The spin on this hiring cycle is going to be even funnier than the all-star squad from last offseason.

It's going to look like Wilks' year in Arizona but worse. Rosen wasn't sitting on the team yet and Tepper is going to have to throw the bank at even a crappy hire. The worst part is if Tepper keeps the crappy hire in 2025 and pisses away the chance at another good to great QB then...

It's going to be such dud hires again. There are zero signs Tepper is going hands off enough to succeed. He already broke the S2 and next up is Sportsorgy or whatever. Not forcing your staff and players as more than maybies would be a huge step forward but that doesn't look on the table. It all feels backwards and not even a new approach for a failing team. There are so few positives it's really amazing the implosion Tepper has achieved.

They identify talent well. That may be true on our team but Raid did it in KC. Losing Tua would be like them losing Smith at the time. Always a chance they could get worse but finding another QB who is good enough to slip into the playoffs is a Baker away on a well run team.

Depends on the coach. All of them have positives and negatives. McDaniels' negative is his immaturity. I don't know how that plays out long term because it can improve even with his base personality. I'll take a caoch that can adapt and change over time because when they stop trying it's a sign that their time is up. McDaniels might need a Reid type move next to help him take that step so Miami might not be getting the best of him.

They still would have picked the wrong QB...

2 wins. Can the guys here do better? Absolutely. Dropping a new HC in like they dropped in Bryce and expecting the best outcome is going to be hilarious because it's a terrible idea. These moves don't make sense because keeping anyone after the stuff, all of it, that went down this season is a bad idea. It was a poorly built staff that already turned on itself and then failed doing it their way. It's like expecting better talent acquisition when Tepper gets his analytical GM to match with this dropped in HC. Change is healthy in these situations and not burning bridges would be a huge positive, for players and staff.

They can score 70 in the regular season but only 7 in the playoffs. Too bad all those D guys weren't there to catch some TDs huh lol

System QBs that can't carry poo. Will look OK in a perfect situation but lean to hard on them and they snap. Don't care about the school, it's all in their evaluations if you don't have blinders on. You can win with them but if you get a chance upgrade and never look back.

1 and done in the playoffs after being regular season warriors against bad and mediocre teams. Tua is their weakest link and they need to upgrade QB and find some toughness if they want to be a contender and not a pretty pretender.

Most of the backups were better too so that's more fun. And if a team is going to hope a QB can carry the entire offense they might want to actually draft someone with physical talent that can see the field. Real NFL rocket science stuff right there.

And yet he took the DC job. That was part of the point I was trying to make why it's looking like the better landing spot than the Panthers. They get Petters and we will get another Fritters or worse, the analytical genius that Tepper thinks will save him by cracking the code where football is just an equation.

They already blocked 2 interviews on a maybe? It's obvious he is hoping to keep them here. Everything was a problem, some more than others. Some of those guys also went behind the last HC's back. Tepper still thinks he built an allstar staff but in the end they were all a 2 win staff.

Both request were lateral moves so not as HCs that were blocked. Evero and Tabor are getting HC interviews too? LOL. IDK but I would love to see it if Tepper's master plan is to just drop a HC in along with a RB and QB coaches with last year's people.

Adam Petters bowed out of our GM race when they hired Fritters. Many thought he wouldn't leave the 49ers. Having a quality GM that won't walk into a bad position up front along with all that is listed above makes it a better spot. DC was able to snag a highly regarded GM already while Tepper is asking if he can ask to interview HCs with no GM yet... Who knows what else is part of the bag right now the Panthers are asking of people. Sure looks like Tepper is trying to push off a large part of last year's wonder crew on the new people. That alone seems like a tough sell for people with options.

They put the GM on the backburner and Petters would in fact leave SF. Tepper kept Fritters too long and could have hired a good GM to lure a good HC. He is trying to keep the peices he thinks is good and it should all have been wiped the day after. His only positive is his open checkbook and the rest are negatives. He is making a mess again while the first time guys in DC are killing it. This is his third attempt and it's already questionable.

He already quit the Jets during his introductory press conference because he thought the team had pulled the rug out from under him in 2000. The difference is here he could easily just tell Tepper he is an idiot, that he is going to do what ever he wants to do and just get fired for it while taking the cash. He is absolutely better at that game than Tepper too. BB would throw him out of the room and Tepper would throw his proverbial drink while BB walks with a 7 year contract and a fat retirement package.

Logically that makes sense. Unfortunately he is stubborn and might actually want to just keep doing what he loves...at least until he works under Tepper for an offseason. That looks to make anyone not overpromoted or much younger to want to retire.

He looks like he is about to build a Frankenstein of stupidity that will look a lot like last year's well built machine...I don't think Bill comes here unless he wants to retire with one last huge payday.
