Dude, you're first point is so insanely wrong it hurts.  He had Luck his first season in 2018, 2019 he retired before the season and they had jacoby brissett, third year they had the final year of Phillip rivers career, next was Carson Wentz, and his final year in Indy he had Matt Ryan.  In no world did he have andrew luck for "most of it".  also its pretty openly known now that Reich wanted Stroud, Tepper wanted Young, so we took young.

 

Reich is a trashcan of a coach, but we don't have to make up stuff to prove our point.

true, I stand corrected.... but the bulk of his wins were under Rivers and Luck... 2 qbs that force wins that really arent due to coaching...

Now THIS is absolutely correct.  They held the Offense together and they had a good defense, those 2 things will produce wins as long as you don't get in the way.  Hell it was the Rivera Method with Cam and a dominant defense.

Two videos of Mike Lombardi from the Pat McAfee show...

The idea of Reich being "broken" from some of his prior experiences actually make a lot of sense. As mentioned before, some of his choices here were just baffling.

Also, his statement that the job could be considered desirable if it comes with a 6 year guaranteed contract is consistent with what's been said elsewhere.

And McAfee's final comment is correct: Tepper still has to make the right choice.

Youre right scot, its similar to what adam put out. 

I wonder how his energy levels were during the hiring process??

How did tepper and fitt not see it?? 

I know not many 70 some old coach cannot have pete carroll PED/meth energy........just matt rhule fooled them and now frank fooled them as well....

Sheena Quick backs it up...

 

This makes a lot of sense, but it also goes against what a lot of people are saying about Tepper making uninformed decisions etc. It seems like it is the opposite, he listens too much to other people. So the upside is that when he figures out who to listen to, he is open to their input.

My biggest complaint about Jerry Richardson was always that he trusted the wrong people (Marty Hurney, in particular).

It's a similar issue with David Tepper, but almost like he doesn't know who to trust. Odd given that he was around some great football minds in Pittsburgh.

It may make more sense to keep Fitterer as he seems to be very connected in the league and you ultimately need someone to handle the financial side of the roster. But our coach should have say over the roster composition so that the scheme will mesh with the players. I think Jim Harbaugh would be a good fit as he is a strong personality, his scheme would fit our existing roster more closely and matches our historical identity, and he can build the roster in his image and let Fetterer handle negotiations. Every personnel decision including trades should be Harbaugh’s final decision.

And basically whoever the coach is should have the option to interview Fitterer and if they do not think he is the right GM, then fire him then. But why fire him now if the new coach felt he would be a good GM.

Spoiler alert: he’s not a good GM

    • Sounds like #37 gonna miss the whole road trip.  
    • I didn't realize Robidas is Stankoven sized lol
    • No, but considering that over a third (~35%) of their schedule are the other three teams in the NFC South and all three have strong starting (and back-up) RBs that the offense leans heavily on to open up the pass game. ATL: Bijan has this season and next season before the Falcons have to make a decision on his fifth-year option, Tyler Allgeier is a proven back-up RB that could start for some teams, and 2024 sixth-round selection Jase McClellan returns from a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season starting in early September. Combine that with their QB situation, and that's a team that is going to lean heavily on the run just like they did last season when they were 8th in the league in rushing attempts, 10th in rushing yards, 8th in rushing TDs, 9th in rushing attempts on 1st down, . NO: Similar situation as ATL, but for different reasons. Derek Carr is in the second to last year of his deal and the QBs behind him are Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci. However, they also have Alvin Kamara. One thing that we know about Kellen Moore from his stints as an OC is that he likes to lean heavily on a versatile RB1 while bringing in an arguably equally versatile RB2 to keep their foot on opposing defenses. When Moore had Zeke in Dallas, Zeke was 4th in the league in touches during those four years but Pollard still averaged 10 touches and nearly 60yds a game. Look for the Saints to shore up their RB room in the draft with Kendre Miller, CEH, Jordan Mims, and Xazavian Valladay all competing for touches behind Kamara. TB: Bucky Irving exploded onto the scene last season, but we can't forget more than capable (now-)RB2 Rachaad White. White is on the last year of his rookie deal, but Irving is under contract until 2028. Last season, the Bucs were 10th in rushing attempts, 4th in rushing yards, 3rd in YPC, 7th in carries of 20+, 8th in carries of 40+, and 7th in first down rushing attempts and that helped Baker Mayfield be one of the most efficient passers in the league with a 71.4% completion percentage (good enough for 2nd in the league).
