With Wilks, no Bryce. With Bryce, no Wilks.

I feel pretty sure about that, but I could always be wrong,.

Tepper was picking the qb regardless of who the coach was. If you think Wilks was changing that you are sadly mistaken my friend.

Did you disregard the second line? I guess you did.

No, I'm saying you're wrong. Bryce was going to be the pick as soon as they traded for the 1st pick. It was decided before the combine. It took a while for Frank to accept his fate so he decided to go along. Wilks would have suffered the same fate.

So this trade was brought to Tepper and he didn’t overrule it AKA make a decision is what you are saying? You want Tepper to overrule the GM he hired and are mad he didn’t, but also think he is meddling too much… I’m confused?

Yes, I am with you on that. Would not have happened. I'm not sure starting a rookie QB would have happened, or how any of that would have played out. It is clear that we need new blood at QB if we could get it and Wilks wouldn't deny that. 

In the end on him I have to concede that what I know of who he got for the OC and DC I wouldn't have been real excited. 

I love everything about Steve and what he represents. He wouldn’t/couldn’t be bought. He is the only coach under T that left with dignity still intact. 

He was a winner, but I concede that he was not a champion.

That was after Wilks was gone. I don't know how what I stated was not open ended enough to allow for all of that and not still be accurate. It was more of a comment of (on) the way things went.

Maybe I misunderstood your post as thinking Wilks would have chosen a different qb. My point was that Wilks would have not gotten who he really wanted either. That's my point. Maybe I shouldn't have had that last White Russian.

He already did in Arizona with Rosen. The only year as a HC and that literally already happened. They also picked his staff almost completely vs whatever the fug last years approach is categorized as.

This thread is the "they're cheating" complaint in gaming when you get beat by a better player. No, they're not cheating, you're just bad. No, Tepper isn't making all the decisions, we just suck.

 

This is not a good team. We have some interesting parts. We have some pieces, but they're not meshing well into a team because the bad pieces still exist. Some of that could improve with experience. Some of that could only be improved by replacing. But buckle in. The mismanagement fuged us for years. We suck now, we're likely gonna suck next year, maybe we improve some the following if poo starts going right.

I made another post that was more descriptive of my thoughts on how it may have gone with Wilks but I am of the opinion that if it came down to Bryce Wilks would balk, hard.

If he did maybe that was why he didn't get the job.

      If he tries to do that I have a feeling the league is gonna tell him to butt out.

      Bryce Young is HIM.

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I think you are at a major advantage if you have the ability to run the football as a quarterback. It can mask a lot of issues. Much like RG3, or Anthony Richardson, immediate impact is a lot easier with a running QB. Anthony Richardson already appears to be a bust, despite him turning some heads early last year. Vince Young was a ROY. I do think Jayden is a lot better than a lot of those guys, but I think he's got a fair amount of development to do as well.  Stroud looks a lot better than Bryce, I won't dispute that, but he's taken a very big step back this year off of last year. Houston has a myriad of issues on the offensive side of the ball.  This is just a trend we seem to be seeing everywhere. Very few QB's are pro ready anymore, and just when we are ready to give up on a guy, he does the thing where he becomes competent, (not necessarily good). Sam Bradford, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, Geno Smith, Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota, and so on and so forth. The list of evidence is enormous. But to your point, the highest miss rate of any position in football is quarterback. The vast majority of them do not pan out. More than likely, that is the case here.
