It was discussed in detail at the time that the selling point of Frank Reich being hired was more about the "great coaching staff" he could bring with him. I don't think Tepper really saw Frank as the "head coach" so much as the lynchpin connecting the team to a wealth of coaching minds. Which turned out to be fool's gold and Tepper looked ridiculous because of it.

I understand that scheme matters, however, Cam did get put into a system that people suggested was a poor fit and they were wrong. Norv Turner had a type and always valued a pocket passer, which wasn't Cam. I remember people being worried that Norv would take away Cam's strengths, or that Cam wasn't a naturally accurate passer so he would struggle to run Norv's offense, etc. But both player and coach adapted. And Cam played well and posted career highs in completed passes and completion percentage. So it is difficult for me to look at a young coach and QB pairing and just suggest "it can't work." If they want it to, it can. Even Canales said it took him and Bryce getting to know each other more and what plays they liked to run and how they could make plays work and expand on that. So you may have a point that Canales was simply trying to run his offense at the beginning of the season and it wasn't working, but there is also evidence to show that Canales is willing to adapt the offense because of how different the results were later. The video that was posted a little while back talked about how Canales tried to run more plays bunched around Bryce to offer more protection, but what Bryce needed was more options to throw to, so we started running a lot more empty sets and Bryce started succeeding. It's stuff like that that shows that this is evolving in the right way.

How is building a solid offensive line and drafting a 1st round receiver in consecutive years setting him up for failure? If anything, they are investing in assets to help him. And the blame you put on Carolina is that they drafted Bryce Young in the first place, because you suggest in a lot of your posts that you don't think he can be a good quarterback anywhere, which pins the blame of failure on... Bryce Young.

So you're telling me if Joe Burrow was throwing to Bryce's receivers last year and not Jamarr Chase and Tee Higgins, this wouldn't change? Joe Burrow is great, no doubt. I think he might be the best QB in the NFL. But his top 2 receivers are fantastic as well, and that makes things easier. Even Tom Brady, the king of tearing teams apart with short passes, played differently when he had Randy Moss or Mike Evans. You have to trust the guys to make those plays downfield, or you take the higher percentage play. It's why guys like Chad Pennington were able to make a moderate career out of a weak arm, and guys like Rex Grossman flamed out quickly. I'm excited to see Bryce in year 3 with his promising young receiver group because he is showing more trust in his guys this year (based on camp and preseason). Bryce has shown he can be accurate, but his guys have to make the catch and build that trust.

I was literally about to reply and say the exact same thing. I don't know what the coaching staff sees in him.

For all of the people upset about Renfrow being cut, did you ever think that maybe he wanted to be cut because he would essentially be 4th or 5th on the depth chart and he wants to go where he will be able to get on the field? Just saying, we don't have all of the information.

??? We signed a QB, RB, WR, CB, and S so far.

One guy we should seriously consider is Willie Lampkin. Could be future starter at center.

I'm waiting for the Ravens to release their cuts. Jay Higgins would be a great get for us if he is cut

They probably would like to bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue working his way back.

I remember guys banging the table for Malachi Corley in last year's draft. Well, he is being waived by the Jets.

Where are you getting this from?

Absolutely. Much appreciated.

Where did you see this? Just curious

Dude. Stop. These were suggestions, not actual transactions.
