I can not blame him for doing so. If I wrote a 2.25 billion check, for sure Id want to be a super involved with daily operations.  

You'd pay a massive amount of money for a heart transplant too. Would you then feel entitled to tell the surgeon how to perform the operation?

an owner can certainly treat an NFL team as his own real life Madden franchise if he so desires, but he should then understand he's not going to build a winner if he does.

(fans won't support that either)

Keeping pressure on people to perform is entirely different from actively controlling football operations. I don't think Tepper is running our draft, FA, and calling plays. Sure, he's probably an asshole to work for but not once have I been given the impression that he's a puppet master.

Yep. He’s the root of the problem because the guys in charge are his decisions. Still can’t believe people are blaming him as if he’s running the show. He’s the new Rhule. The problem IMHO is squarely on Frank and Scott but there’s an active movement in here to make Frank and Scott look not so bad anymore as if they had no choice. SMH, are these people watching the games or do they think Tepper’s calling plays too?

SMH, could you make a worse comparison? Being an owner of a football team and questioning an 0-5 all star coach is not the same as getting a heart transplant.

I’m sorry man, but your coach and GM are just not good. One day you might admit it and not keep trying to find excuses for them.

I would certainly demand to know why his previous five patients died (if we are continuing with this hilariously poor analogy).

Read what I was responding to.

Same answer.

JR and now Tepper just can't seem to get the coaching hires right. 

Capers - Mid-aged Steelers DC

Seifert - HC, Elder Lifer who took over Walsh, won a SB in a good system w/Montana

Fox - Mid-aged Giants DC

Rivera - Mid-aged Chargers/Bears DC

Rhule - Overhyped College Coach

Reich - HC, Elder lifer who won a SB in a good system as an OC

Unreal we've never tried a younger offensive guy from the NFL.  Waldron, B Johnson, Frank Smith, there's more out there Dave.  Need to take a shot at some point.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
