The coast is clear and we now are in prime postion for our 4th coach in the Tepper era. Even though the core problems still remain.
David Tepper
Scott Fitterer
Bryce Young (jury still out, but barely)
The question everyone is asking themselses what circus move will we make next? Nick Saban, Jim Harbaugh, and the biggest one Bill Belicheck. I can see it now in Febuarary, Tepper backs in the brinx trunk in MA to Bill to be the sole GM/Coach. Highest paid with unlimited control. What could go wrong? https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10098390-peter-king-on-bill-belichick-cowboys-chargers-panthers-are-possible-landing-spots

I hope it's a hard pass, but I feel we will go for the big name coach. Johnson OC for the lions is the only option moving forward.
