I'm not telling you to call him a POS. I'm not sitting here calling him names. I'm telling you he is a very poor owner and he is very bad in his overall decision making from major team decisions down to basic things like attending games and acting like an angry toddler. He is also very petty and we are hearing he only wants to surround himself with literal yes men. If you don't agree so be it.

Of all the things to do on a random Wednesday you choose carrying water for a billionaire.

Meh. What it really boils down to is we did not need to keep Darnold or Baker. We did not need to trade to 1. We could have kept Moore kept this years first rounder and drafted Levis at 9 or even traded down and still taken him a little later and been better off than we are now.

You guys should stop torturing yourselves dreaming about this. They love having Tepper around. He's good for business. His team is a cellar dweller and the get right game for other more relevant franchises.

You're caping at this point. Just as you were last year. And the year before. That's your prerogative. Also to be clear he's made it well known he regards fans critical of him as beneath him entirely and people that live in basements.

From a general perspective I would get what you are saying if we were talking about a normal everyday individual. As far as it pertains to David Tepper. Bare in mind you are asking for decorum on behalf of a middle aged billionaire who in a press conference following yet another disastrous decision on his part purposely mispronounced the last name of the head coach he just fired. That same man once purchased the home of a former business rival just to tear it down and rub his nose in it. That same man basically has a trail of bad decisions and business deals across the region here. Now he is behaving like a drunken ogre at Panthers games. His reputation in the Carolinas has been cemented by himself. That's really all there is to it.

Why would we have to choose between the two? You would keep both and deal Burns if anything. We're finding out the hard way you can't just draft a WR in the first two rounds and profit immediately. He has?

Tepper has more than brought this on himself. It's telling the only one who agrees with you on this is Dr Lunker back on a new account.

DJ Moore was the more egregious move. Top 10 WR in his prime on a low end contract compared to some of his peers. McCaffrey is everyone's favorite because he's playing on the 49ers behind that OL with Shanahan designing plays. But nobody wants to talk about his salary cap hits or the fact he and his mother were relieved to get him back on the west coast. He's also banged up heading into the playoffs behind one of the league's best olines. You're dreaming if you think he stays healthy and doesn't sit out behind ours.

Best player on the team. Pay that man.

Pocket change. Owners looked out for him. Make no mistake they don't mind at all having Tepper around. The league needs a good punching bag and that's what Tepper's franchise is good for now. We are every teams get right game.

It's all about available media markets vs the current media market. The owners would only approve a move if significantly more money were to be made. Since this is a profitable market and California Texas New York and Florida all have multiple NFL franchises the odds of this team moving anywhere else are very low.

Boy does that sound familiar. They must have accounts.

At this point Harbaugh and any other potentially franchise altering head coaching option are seeing the behavior of this manchild owner and thinking to themselves they'd rather do anything else.

Well sure. We said the same thing about Matt Rhule. They make their money and the team is horribly worse off in the meantime. All you need to know about Scott Fitterer is how the Seahawks have been doing since he left. And his lone claim to fame was being there when they drafted Russell Wilson. Who has been garbage since Seattle let him go. It is unfathomable that we managed to heavily downgrade from Marty Hurney. But that's what we did lol.

Doing what Tepper wants may keep him this job but will seriously hurt his chances of getting anywhere near the position again elsewhere. They're both trash.

This tweet sums up Tepper. And by extension says Scott Fitterer is a boot licking sycophant.

Oh I concur 100% we need to actually build an offense and stop thinking we can just drop in a QB. All I'm saying is while I like Bryce Young the person. This offense is seriously limited with him. Defenses know this as much as we do. Chark certainly has questionable hands but this is just a butt ugly offense. And honestly as bad as Chark has been. Bryce throws some wobbly ducks out there. At the end of the day I think if we got to see a few more games of Andy Dalton we would be arguing we need less offensive pieces than we think. The mere mention of that will enrage certain people but that's where I'm at. I was joking. Mike is a fiery kind of guy to a degree from what I've seen of his on field personality. I am honestly surprised we haven't had any blow ups with how awful this season has gone. Remember when DJ Moore publicly challenged our staff? Looks like he did himself a favor. I sincerely hope we can improve next year or the odds of locker room turmoil will increase substantially.

Adam Thielen is 8th in receptions and 100th in yards per reception. He's slow but that's ridiculous. That matches Bryce Young's YPA. Honestly Mike Evans would probably go Robby Anderson on the sidelines here and I would not blame him one bit.

Injuries have had an impact. But I cannot say how much Bryce Young not consistently making throws to keep the defense honest is hurting us. We only got to see one game of Dalton. At this point it's clear to me why we haven't let him play again.

I too have looked at Baker Mayfield and found that as a way to look to the possibility we just need to hit on the right staff. But Baker has always had the necessary phsyical intangibles and he's always had a pretty good deep ball. He's also 10th in yards per attempt. It's fair to ask if BY had Mike Evans would he even sniff 1k yards here.

I don't see Tepper letting them take a QB before 2025. He has such a delicate ego and it's already badly bruised. We will have to endure another season of whatever this is.

The state of the OL is awful. But at some point folks have to step back and ask is the QB behind center only exacerbating the issues. Even when there are opportunities from the OL we are not capitalizing. Defenses watch the tape and know this. That only means a harder job for the OL.
