But even though it will end. What’s our record on turf with Cam?

Funny you say that....I was thinking about our record (Cam in particular) in his hometown Atlanta...Cam has played poorly in ATL and the Super Bowl being there this year brings flashbacks of Superbowl 50 if we make it there.

 

Here is what I found.  Just in the NFC South, our records are as follows for Cam's starts

 

@TampaBay 4-2

@NewOrleans 3-5 (two games last year including playoff)

@ATL 2-4

 

*ATL is actually 2-5 and Tampa Bay is 5-2 since 2011, but was D.A. started at QB those games

FYI: the reason so many of you sweetened on Ben Navarro over the past 6 weeks is because he wanted you to. He hired a PR firm to help sell people just like you on his bid and you fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Those flowery stories about how great of a guy were pitched by that firm. He's a billionaire debt collector FFS, he's hardly the mix of Dean Smith and Dale Earnhardt like people were making him out to be.

interesting ....

why on earth do people care about this so much? i'll never understand 

Because footballz meant to be played outside. Something about the pussification of America. Something something bloviated something.

One thing you can't take away from Jerry is that he was always invested into the team on a personal level, to a fault it seems. Going from that to a guy who sees the team purely as a business investment is a sharp departure for this franchise and I only hope it's a net positive in the end.

General consensus is that the "all business" approach is what got Dave Gettleman fired.

Having Tepper as the owner could be a major culture change.

domes are awesome aesthetically and they also help substantially with home field advantage. much easier to cultivate noise.

also domes and grass are not mutually exclusive 

Also would provide a better mix use venue for major concerts, basketball tourneys, wrestlemania and a whole lot of other stuff our current place is really suited for
