This is pretty much the nightmare scenario, IMO.

Tepper isn't going anywhere, unfortunately.

No way in hell Ickey deserves a grade that high. Jesus.

The OL has to be priority #1, hands down.

Be careful what you wish for. It's far more likely that the league takes away a draft pick from the team than forcing him to sell.

My top-5: 1. Bobby Slowik 2. Ben Johnson 3. Ejiro Evero 4. Shane Waldron 5. Frank Smith

Sometimes I think the whole "leader of men" thing is B.S. I mean, just look at Mike McDaniel in Miami. You're telling me he's a leader of men? No. But he's an offensive genius who has his team playing as well as anyone in the league. How about Kyle Shanahan? Does he really strike anyone as a leader of men? That's one of the reasons Matt Rhule was supposed to be such a great coach. He ended up being a glorified gym teacher. I'm not saying that approach can't work with the right guy, but it's by no means a requirement in today's NFL.

This is more like "WHAT WE ALL ASSUMED NEWS."

Shy Tuttle is a surprise.

It's almost like the farther removed from Frank Reich's offense he gets the better he is...

Team President? I don't know what all goes into that position but Cam couldn't possibly do a worse job than Tepper has.

The fact that Reich and McCown weren't all over him to improve his footwork is insane to me. How can two supposed "QB gurus" not bother with something so obvious?

The more I learn about him the more I'm starting to think he's the guy. This might just be a Mike McDaniel situation.

No.

Imagine that; 4 of the top 5 players are OL and WRs and Bryce has his highest grade of the year.

I swear if the Steelers fire Mike Tomlin Tepper better be at his front door with a giant blank check before the ink dries on his termination papers.

Considering the injuries and offensive issues we've had I think the defense has been outstanding.

I agree, but at the same time I don't get the sense that there are many owners out there who would be too eager to try and sell a coordinator from a 2-3 win team as his team's next head coach. It's not fair, but it will surely be a factor.

1) He should be a serious candidate for head coach. 2) If he doesn't get the HC job, I have to believe that any offensive-minded coach we hire with any sense (not guaranteed to be the case, I realize) would jump at the chance to retain him as DC. I mean, what else can a guy prove? Two years in a row (last year in Denver, now here) he's coached great defenses despite being dragged down by inept offense and injuries.

This. If you think every NFL team didn't know his size was being overestimated you're crazy. NFL scouts and execs knew exactly how big/tall Bryce was and wasn't. And honestly, I don't think his size has been a huge issue so far. He's certainly shown he can take a pounding and keep getting up and does anyone really think if he were another 2 inches taller and 15 pounds heavier that he'd be playing significantly better? Yeah, I didn't think so.

Bill Belichick is John Fox/Jeff Fisher who got lucky enough to stumble onto the GOAT QB and ride him to a Hall of Fame career. If he didn't have Brady he'd have been fired 15-20 years ago and be out of the league by now.

This.

I might agree if Bryce didn't have a Pro Day where he threw. You really think NFL teams didn't gauge his arm strength before giving him a 1st round grade? Or are you one of the people who have convinced themselves that we were somehow the only team in the league that had higher than a 2nd/3rd round grade on him? If we're being honest Bryce's arm strength doesn't even crack the top-3 in terms of issues he's had this year. I'd put his footwork, accuracy and ball security all above arm strength as problems that need to be addressed. In any event it's not like Bryce set out to dupe the NFL into making him a top draft pick. He may end up being a massive bust, but it won't be because he somehow pulled the wool over everyone's eyes for a cash grab.

We can only hope this is accurate. Fitterer is an even bigger problem than Reich was. One of the worst GMs of the last decade in the NFL.

Oh, that cannot be denied. The way this roster was constructed on offense mirrors the way the coaching staff was put together. A hodge-podge of mis-matching parts forced into roles they're not suited for.
