It seems like those two statements directly conflict with one another.  Bashing him for taking pretty low cost swings for a qb then also saying he has to learn he cant win without a qb...

Both signs of irrational thought. The most valuable position, does not come cheap and thinking a bargain basement or journeyman will now succeed because he's on your team now is and was foolish and delusional and they keep doing it. The result will be the same.

Refusing to travel the cheaper, higher risk, greater reward route of going all in on the draft, QB of the future, drafting a good QB by all means necessary be it moving up or trading has been lost on ultra ego Tepper.

The guy in 5yrs has shown a ton of irrationality and obvious flailing. Obviously he had the cheat code for billions. A "cheat" is a cheat and lacks real merit, so when a fake is revealed to be fake, the incompetence is to be expected.

I'm calling fake. Somebody with true business acumen like Jerry Richardson with Hardee's then Bojangles and the Panthers makes it look easy in comparison to someone who was handed everything through systematic fractional pocket stuffing.

Exactly…

…patience will be rewarded 🤙.

Your guy doesn't seem very intelligent at all. He's not the cool hand.

Where does your blind allegiance come from? On the payroll?

If so get that money! A fool and his money shall very soon part.

What great QB would we have right now if you were in charge?

How does this "systemic fractional pocket stuffing" work?  

Is this a long-hidden strategy only you (and Tepper) are aware of?

Also, where does the "handout" line start -- seems like a great gig!

There is a learning curve with every new owner, as there is with every new coach. 

It is frustrating being in the midst of this, but we will get out of it.

Honestly, I'm not sure why.

I mean seriously, it's not rocket science.  The league has been around for a long time, look at the most successful teams over the past 30 years and look into what made them successful.  That's it really, its all right there in front of you.

What I see here isn't a mandatory learning curve, it was thinking that you were smarter than the others owners and team President types.

Hubris, ego, whatever you want to call it, but IMO it's not a "learning curve".

Ask Nancy. It's called insider something or other. The handout line is called Wall street.

Gravy train!

The ultimate secret to winning as an owner is putting the right people in charge.

That's something Tepper hasn't done. Nor has he shown he's able to do so.

Until he does, we're gonna continue to be bad.

Good question. Marty was all over Justin Herbert.

I would have moved heaven and earth to put that guy in a Panthers uniform.

Marty got overRhuled on that one.

I have no "allegiance" whatsoever but am willing to bet on the Appaloosa for a couple of reasons...

...(i) keen handle on the challenges and timing of complex turnarounds...

...and (ii) a true understanding of how Tepper put himself into a position to pay cash for the Carolina Panthers (and no it wasn't "systematic fractional pocket stuffing" 🤦‍♂️🤣) and how those skills will transfer...

...all that's required from you, is patience 👌.

As Whiny Aaron would say, R-E-L-A-X 🤘.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By strato · Posted

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
