It's what happens when you run a shotgun offense and have a rookie QB who doesn't take hits well or shots down field. No one respects anything deep and as long as you can keep the pressure on it's an obvious and basic game plan that keeps winning against the Panthers. The deep drop backs are the stuff of dreams for speed rushers and with no respect deep the running game is easily contained. It's not rocket science

They both stink and don't have much of a future. The fact they paid Murray is hilarious and then I think about picking Bryce and it's about the same. Too early to dump Bryce anyways. It's going to be such a bad season lol

He isn't worth 13 mil in dead money either but he is the kind of poo the people running the team love so it's bound to happen. He is worth a 6th if you have to eat that dead money next year IMO. That's like the last pick in the 5th round

Your right about most. It could be done and properly. Frank is obviously failing here with the same issues he had at his last job and also never underestimate well placed blame. Rhule had most fans convinced Teddy was a problem but it turned out they threw him under the bus and he was 100% right when Rhule proved it over the next year and a half. The problem is that expecting anything being done properly at this point is absurd. I don't think Tepper could pull it off but I do think it could be done at the begging of the bye week even given the history. Tepper giving the presser alone guarantees it will go poorly.

Yup. Unfortunately most of that interest will be more coaches like Frank and not people like Ben Johnson.

I'm sure someone brought that up to an angry Tepper. Until they trade Burns or start talking about rebuilding, these idiots still think they are a player away from turning it around. 'It's the NFC South. How hard could that really be?' LOL

Fitz should never have been hired but he was the quality of GM you get to pair with a Rhule. It's all just stupid and incompetent.

They don't think any of this is rebuilding. They never have. It's a move to win now which is why it looks so bad. You don't trade that much away and are able to call it a rebuild.

I hope the non-locals do anyways. I get the locals having to backdown a little but the others should be tearing into these people. 'Do pointguards score many TDs either' or 'Does you wife have any work history that would qualify her to help in the hiring or drafting processes' or hell 'Is any one on the hotseat for drafting a guy who is so physically limited'. That would be fun

Do they even have a 1st to package into that deal?

When has Tepper being around ever ended well?

It doesn't make it any more acceptable. Then it just flips to 'all we could get was Jeudy' BS. That is little more than doing anything because they can't do something good.

Dementia would actually explain a lot

Tell me when he decides to announce his retirement

A time machine

I actually forgot that was even a thing. I have no idea about Germany and what soccer they already have.

And also paying those guys which I am sure does not play into the equation a little. There is a fee to relocate that goes into other owner's pockets. Look up the Rams/Chargers processes. Moving the team from NC to Germany would be what they have been drooling over since they started playing games in London.

They didn't shore up the D but did add a good safety. Plus they switched from last years scheme, which should take a little time at best. The team had depth issues and the schem changes knocked down some of what was positives last year. Either way, this team wasn't just a QB away. I think without 'the trade' and Dalton level QB they would still have a hard time breaking .500 this year. The schedule vs last year is just brutal coming up. That D vs tge Dolphins is going to be interesting to gauge their quality.

What has Tepper done to make you think he is not a complete idiot? Run a hedge fund is about it on my list.

Put it on Young's back when that poor thing can barely hold up his pads and uniform? Sure, why not lol

That's about all that would make me want to even acknowledge the NFL after they move the team.

It just sounded like they wanted him to do what Frank would and he balked. Ben just walked away and said no to everyone. And Frank is absolutely looking like a bigger part of the Indy mess then his fans would admit. They blamed everyone else yet here he is in peak form doing so much worse.

After talking to us. Add to the things they were saing about Steichen and it raises further questions about what they were saying in the hiring process.

For fun, show what we got in return next to that and then tell me Fritterer was ever qualified for the job...
