Tepper's patience is why we are screwed for at least 3 more years.

His lack of patience is how we ended up with Bridgewater, Darnold and then Baker

It’s been the biggest issue since he bought the team

I wonder if Rhule, Hurney and Fitt drove that. Hurney always acted like he was going to get canned after he came back. Remember Tepper’s letter to PSL holders that mentioned patience with an obvious rebuild? I can’t recall exactly but I think it was after Cam’s release.

We didn’t really hear about Tepper’s involvement in any of the Rhule QBs and heck he said he kept Marty because of his college scouting. I think Tepper got more involved the worse we got but he committed to the people and hires so his fault as the boss.

Isn't it widely known/reported that Tepper drove the decision to dump Bridgewater after one season?

Yep he wasn’t watching another season of Bryc…I mean Teddy

Tepper wanted Fields but let Rhule/Fitt take Horn. 

Every single year the best move Tepper could make is no move yet they continue to double down

From what I've read, Rhule was pretty much dead set against taking a rookie. He looked at them the same as a college freshman.

The way he handled Corral pretty well validated that.

Not that I’m aware of. The Tepper making all the decisions never really came up until post Rhule/Frank sucking. People can rewrite history but Rhule supposedly had full control of decisions and getting rid of Teddy was definitely his call. Remember his calling out of the coaching? Pretty sure Teddy’s end of game performances (bad) and complaints were the reason for parting, not Tepper.

I don’t recall Tepper forcing out Teddy. Teddy called out the coaches and played terrible at the end of games. Rhule had full roster control. Tepper’s made plenty of hiring and other mistakes but it’s funny now that Rhule is gone that he’s getting blamed for Rhule mistakes.

Tepper was reported to be pretty pissed at Matt Rhule over the way the Bridgewater thing turned out.  He also "expressed himself" publicly in a way that made it pretty difficult to bring Bridgewater back.

Thing is, what we've learned since is that Bridgewater was essentially right about Rhule.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      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.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      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.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      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.
