If you try to keep evero you have to fire everyone he doesn’t want, let him pick the gm, and probably let him pick team president. 

like give him belichick levels of control. Or else why would he stick around for this place intrigue bullshit

Does he even want to be here though?

He'll likely have other opportunities. Why would he choose to stay here with all this bullsh-t?

Rooneys got him fast tracked to buy the panthers so they wouldn’t have to deal with him anymore. 

They have been successful at getting minority owners an NFL Team.  Not sure if they influence the decisions, but could be.  Haslam with the Browns, Tepper, and now Josh Harris buying the commanders.

Letting Tepper buy the Panthers feels like a fug you from the NFL for what happened in 2015.

My guess would be temper saw the headlines about how Brian Daboll assembled his staff in New York and thought "hey, why don't we do that?"

Turned out to be a disaster. Hell, it's not even looking so good in New York anymore.

I think he saw what Rhule did bringing in his completely outmatched college staff and wanted Reich to do the complete opposite and not bring in his buddies. He might’ve also seen how Reich’s end went in Indy on offense and didn’t want those coaches either. Either way, he needs to realize that, while trying to bring in the best coaches possible, they still need to be of one mind on scheme and philosophy so it’s a consistent message to the players

I'd guess that both Rhule and the Daboll story playef into the decision.

Yet another overcorrection, it seems 😕

So…the most important thing I took away from all this is that Bryce sucks. That and there’s a lot of drama queens in the organization/staff tattle telling on one another. There’s no more ‘Keep Pounding,’ just keep whining. 

Keep Pounding is gone. Keep pounding won’t come back until we stop acting like bitches.

Now this from Jonathan Jones

Some of the one-and-done firings were justifiable, others were not. But all reflect a common truth: Most NFL owners have no clue what they’re doing.

For all of their business success, many NFL owners have no idea how to run their teams, and in general they’re awful when it comes to hiring head football coaches. That’s why we see so many ill-fitting marriages, such fruitless efforts and short tenures.

Yes, there are some owners who know how to evaluate talent or can identify potential coaches with strong leadership, communication, organizational, motivational and strategic skills.

But the majority? Shoot. Most owners are nothing more than billionaires playing real-life fantasy football. They guess here, follow popular opinion there. Then they roll the dice and hope they’ve gotten it right.

Tepper perfectly embodies the problem with NFL owners. The highly successful hedge fund manager had learned a little about the league during nine years as a minority owner of the Steelers. But that knowledge obviously was limited, because in his six seasons as the Panthers’ majority owner, Carolina has exhibited not one ounce of the stability and shrewd decision-making for which the Steelers are known.

Instead, Tepper now is looking for his fourth head coach since 2019. He just tabbed special teams coach Chris Tabor as his second interim head coach in two seasons and his third in five years.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
