Think it would take a miracle for him to live up to the Mahomes and Brees comparisons but championship game manager is still very attainable. There's an argument to be made that he always has been.

I don't like our odds of drafting a QB who will make an impact on day 3. Not when there are so many needs we could more easily address with that pick. The 1st pick in 2025 is what's TBD. Bryce is either going to make us competitive next year or put us in the spot to draft his replacement.

Because teams respect his coverage and avoid him. A legit shutdown corner when he's out there.

This. It's a massive upgrade in infrastructure and there aren't enough compatible TVs or worthy 4k broadcasts to justify the cost. And for network TV it has to be done in every market or you run into technical and legal issues. Same reason it's taken forever to get to 1080p (I'm pretty sure ESPN still broadcasts in freaking 720p, for example.)

Because as we all know Rhule loves players with small hands and short arms

You act like his rookie season never happened. Every group on offense got worse under Reich, so it stands to reason that maybe it's a bigger problem than Ickey. Got nothing to do with him being a local.

Because we were so horribly wrong about the coaches. We were legitimately drinking the kool-aid and thinking we might have the best staff in the league and it turned out to be the worst. I really think that's the difference and not that talent. I don't think we were that off about the players. Burns and Sanders definitely underperformed but we also had guys like Luvu, Hubbard, and Brown who exceeded expectations. I think we can all agree Ickey was a victim of the scheme and the jury's still out on Young.

Says he was put in a better situation in Houston.

The Nicole talk is so tired. She would have been in Tepper's ear regardless of an official role. At least this way there's some transparency.

Sorry to bust your bubble but that committee was just to give Tepper candidates. Ain't no way they came back like "You know what? Just promote the guy you have" and then happened to land on a coach who had a close working relationship with that guy. In the end it was your standard hiring process for a GM and HC.

Youth pastor energy is timeless

Guy seems like a straight shooter unlike Rhule and still hungry unlike Reich

With the best roster in franchise history. We're not too hard on him y'all are too soft because he's a nice guy who fought cancer.

Guy's got more personality than our last four coaches combined at least. Hopefully that resonates with the players.

my sources tell me it means the GM and coach work for the owner of the team

This has me optimistic about him. The team lives or dies by the OL and he seems to get that.

He’s the employer of course he does. But it was all Ben Johnson until Dan was promoted and suddenly his boy is the guy. What more proof do you need?

Was that before or after one of our most beloved players retired early because of concussions? Trolls are inevitable but I worry about a Streisand effect because of this thread

This is 100% Dan Morgan. He's been tight with Canales for longer than he's known Tepper. Y'all wanted Tepper to get out the way well Dan is your "football guy" now.

Our most experienced staff was the worst we've ever assembled

Can you blame him? He’s been vocal about wanting to come back here in some capacity and the organization just ignores him.

If he had control of the finances and that much input it sounds he had more power than the general manager did

I thought this guy was just a glorified accountant doing the paperwork for the GM. If they’re held accountable for the decisions I don’t understand why it’s a separate job.

Eh even if this goes badly I really don’t think this fanbase would make CTE jokes about a player that was well liked. More probably remember Luke in tears than Dan’s playing days at this point.

I'm surprised so many are against this honestly. I trust Morgan over Tepper's ability to hire externally right now.
