He might want a winner now, but he let FItt gut the team and trade away all of our picks.  Did Tepper REALLY think we'd have a good team this year?  Look at us, it's a bunch of scrubs and decent players who can't stay on the field.  This team is a sh*t show from the top down and I'm so happy that I checked out years ago.  Someone dig up JR and bring back Jeans Day!

The Huddle needs to chill. Tepper is actually the voice of the Huddle. The entire fanbase is angry and upset at the situation and wants Frank to know about it. Guess what, Tepper feels the same way and actually has the power to do anything about it and he is letting Frank know. Now the Huddle is saying that Tepper meddles too much because he is just as upset as the fanbase and wants to make sure his employees know about it? If this article didn't come out and the narrative is that that Tepper isn't doing anything,  the fanbase would still argue and complain that he doesn't care. If i'm spending billions of dollars on a project, I would definitely care.

I said it last week and its even more clear now, Reich seemingly wants to get canned.  From his actions and the poo he is saying he is subtly wishing he didnt take the job.

Would you want the job if they over ruled you on the QB you wanted and then made you trout out and do team pr bull for said QB that can't run the offense you spent a whole off-season building around 1 qb only to get a different one.

Let's see........Frank didn't want Bryce under center.....................and Frank now doesn't like the job he's stuck with.

Tepper is too deep into the day to day of the franchise and at the same time lets his wife play in the mess to call the shots too?

Are we sure this isn't a remake of the TV 80s sitcom 1st and 10?

Just to be clear, you people are upset that Tepper wants a winning team? I'd be more concerned if Frank said "Tepper doesn't really care how the team performs". In no way does this imply the meddling you guys thing it does.

No one is upset that he wants a winning team. It's about how Tepper is going about it though. Tepper is impatient and has a massive ego. He is desperately trying to make win now moves instead of just letting people rebuild this team over the next two to three years. Tepper has said he wants to win NOW. Winning takes some time. You need to build the team up through FA and draft and that takes some time. Having the right GM also helps a lot. Tepper is also an idiot and keeps hiring the wrong people which just makes it all worse. He needs to hire a competent football president who can then help find the next GM, and those two can work on finding the right coach. Tepper needs to just keep out of the football decisions and let the football people do their thing and build this team up. It takes time and apparently Tepper doesn't have patience.

LOL, have you seen posters on this forum? People are calling Bryce a bust after 4 games, expecting playoffs this year, and we should be 5-0. This fanbase has no patience. 

I just want to see him make an NFL throw, is that too much to ask?

Tepper’s short term thinking will never produce a winning team.

For real, I’ve been confused why Rhule and Reich both didn’t seem to just focus on building a foundation during their 1st year with low expectations and this headline seems to point towards the common denominator. 

People use the term superbowl “window” but I almost think of it more like the tides. You can’t fight it and it’s best to work with it. Tepper needs to let a coach/FO a team down and build it their way. We keep trying to set sail no matter the tides! 
 

I’m also suprised that an investment guy isn’t more averse to trading picks.

Call me crazy, but I will take an owner who actually cares about winning football games. Tepper is learning as he goes, but he is involved, not afraid to pay top dollar for coaches.  Does he have his faults. sure. It could be worse IMO. We could have an owner who didn't really give a crap. IDK just spit balling here. 

Seems like he gives too much of a crap to be honest

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Icege · Posted

      One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.

      “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃
