Tepper and his qb desires

You may forget that he wanted watson desparately and thankfully the browns outspent him. Watson is trash and is out for the season. Two years now of trash.

Tepper wanted Fields who is indeed a bust, so much of a bust he scared me off from stroud.

And now he got his guy with bryce and now the laughing stock of the league. Houston is now not a laughing stock. It comes down to physical tools AND the right coaching. We have neither. If we had stroud, maybe have three wins. If we had Houston's arsenal and coaches, we are probably the same if not worse.

Firing everyone now will not work. No coach or gm wants to come in with no first round pick. His ass needs to hire a consultant now to start looking for a gm outside the company (not morgan sorry) and have that person bring in the coach they want. Otherwise he will sign ron and hurney back bc it worked at one point

Not true. It's the only way to turn this around.

Allowing Fit to make any more decisions continues to set us back by years and continuing with Reich and co. is never going to work.  

I think that what he's getting at is that it's Tepper actually making the call. It was widely reported that it was Tepper who was so obsessed with pursuing Watson and it was only when the cost got to the point of absurdity he accepted that it wasn't worth THAT.

I think he wants anyone perceived to be an upgrade. 
 

I respect that he seems desperate to improve the team and isn’t a complacent, absentee owner. With that said, he clearly isn’t an evaluator of talent who should have input on the roster. 

Yeah I can appreciate the desire but the desire becomes counterproductive when paired with incompetence and too much ego to recognize it. Tepper seems to have the philosophy that he cannot fail he can only be failed by the underlings around him.

See, there's a flaw in your logic here.  You're assuming that with Stroud here we'd be running the same offense.  I feel comfortable saying we would not.  Stroud is a classic pocket QB who also has above average mobility.  It wouldn't make sense to run this scheme with Stroud.

It was well known that Reich likes big, strong armed QB's.  His system isn't strictly West Coast.  He does have some WC concepts, but he's closer to Erhardt-Perkins which marries the WC concepts with the Coryell concepts.

Had Stroud been the pick, I think our playbook would look very different.

I agree with you on Bryce Young, I think, but got to disagree about Tepper’s awareness. 

He knows if he was all over something or if he just went along because the professionals advised it. 

Everybody in the room or on the line at the time knows where the others stand.

I gotta hope he is at least trying to quit overriding professional opinions. If that was what he was doing.

According to Twitter there was a 3 team trade up to the 2nd pick for us. After Houston found out we wanted Stroud they backed out forcing us to deal directly with Chi. After that we took Bryce because that's who Houston wanted and we didn't want to look like fools which we do! Smfh.

Well you kind of just made that up. 100% of reports says Houston would have taken Bryce if they had the choice. They lucked in to us taking him ahead of them.

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

Reports were that we would've taken David Carr if we had the #1 pick instead of being forced to settle for Julius Peppers at #2 and then falling backasswards into Jake Delhomme.

    • 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 😃 
    • Bix has more tds through his first 11 games than bryce has his entire career....no comparison at all he made amazing throws during his first games his decision making just keeps getting better.  Young does not have the physical ability ro make the rhrows bo makes
