  1. We can only speculate his influence. But he's been in on just about every draft pick phone call and he finds a way to get his mug in there at any significant press conference. Then there were the remarks Reich made about differences in ownership approach. The only question now is how much is he actually dictating to Scott Fitterer on major decisions. At this point one would have to be very naive to believe Mr. and Mrs. Tepper didn't influence at some level the decision on who to pick at #1. They didn't hide who they wanted. Until they change their ways we will continue to flounder and embarrass ourselves.
  2. Cringe doesn't even begin to describe that. But sadly they are still in a much better position than us and they are on their backup QB's. We are a joke. Worse than a punchline.
  3. I like you Scot. But after dozens of posts of you telling me and others in a condescending manner that David Tepper isn't a meddler this is very delicious. 2297baa2-aa36-462d-884d-a4eec51249db.mp4
  4. Many people expressed concern about the level of involvement from Mr. and Mrs. Tepper in the process but others here who are still dying on that hill or have gone missing after last weekend shouted everyone down and attacked.
  5. Considering what we've invested I really wish I could disagree. But it's there in the tape the eye test doesn't lie.
  6. If we had drafted this kid in the mid rounds your constant anguish on his behalf might have some semblance of sense given the risk vs reward of the investment. But we all know that's not the case. What it boils down to for you and some others is you simply do not want anyone poking holes in your bubble to cope with our current predicament. You should create your own community and go live out that fantasy as you see fit.
  7. Did Bagent throw 2 pick sixes in the same game to the same defender? Worse by far? Facts say no.
  8. If your immediate instinct isn't to question the ownership and front office but to blame the fanbase maybe it's you. The fans will support anyone who isn't the worst starting QB in the NFL in multiple statistical rankings. Also some of your ramblings make it sound like no one could have possibly predicted Stroud would be so good. As if his arm talent didn't practically slap you in the face on his game tape. It was always there for anyone to see.
  9. Bryce Young still has the lowest yards per pass attempt and QBR in the NFL. But keep blaming everything and everyone else.
  10. When you trade what we did to select a QB at 1 and our passing game looks as bad or worse than we did with Bridgewater Darnold or Mayfield this is what you get. What's astonishing to me is folks like yourself think people are required to watch this and clap like idiots.
  11. Not the worst. Probably not even our worst. He didn't draft himself. But he's making a great deal of money regardless. He'll be okay.
  12. Smaller QB who dominated in college but looks very ordinary in the NFL? We drafted our very own Johnny Manziel. Just minus the personal baggage.
  13. Of course this clown wouldn't even log on today after all his bluster toward others. Fairweather ass mfer.
  14. This post is peak cope. We lit Stroud up at BOA just a week ago. How did his OL and weapons help him? How did his defense help him? Noah Brown his top receiver had barely 900 career yards over 5 seasons entering today's game. You guys pretending he has a stellar cast are high af on copium. At least be upfront about it and stop trying to pass off this drivel as anything less.
  15. This is the lowest form of coping with the pick. Constantly comparing this kid to hall of famers has led us to this point. Doubling and tripling down is simply insane. Log out!
  16. If every NFL executive and NFL scout were infallible and all knowing light-years beyond the average fan then half of the teams in the league wouldn't be changing GM's and scouts on a frequent basis.
  17. I'm a Melo guy but all homerism aside it's concerning. Just gotta hope he can shake it off.
  18. Throwing for 400+ yards and setting rookie passing records is what both Cam Newton and now CJ Stroud have done. CJ now holds the record and Stroud is an even more polished passer. We had the chance to draft the next Cam and we said no thanks. There's just no amount of polishing the turd that is the decision we made. We fuged up.
  19. Poundaway. I agree there are a few people who just don't like Bryce Young. Most just want a winner. They'd cheer for Sir Purr at QB if he could lead us to wins. There's just no silver linings this week. There's always next week. But that cope is worn down now.
  20. I mean if you're gonna call folks out for being active this week but not the main toxic Bryce Young fanatic who skipped out for the first 6 weeks you might just wanna sit this one out.
