Sounds like he isnt happy and he shouldn't be.

I think Ron will be gone pretty much regardless this offseason, thanks for the services and he did have success but a new direction needed will be the reasoning. I myself have been a Ron supporter but do believe with the young offensive weapons and cam at his peak now, we need to take advantage of this and shift to a more aggressive philosophy.

I've been hearing this for a while now. It seems it's hitting the mainstream media today.

The threads were actually merged lol. Thought Igo would delete the other. 

Anyway, I also hope Tepper looks into Ron's history of how he coaches when he's on the hot seat and when we are out of playoff contention. That seems to be the only time he decides to coach. Hopefully, even if we start winning again, Tepper sees through Ron's BS and realize we'll never win a Super Bowl with him as head coach.

Be careful what you wish for.  I said it back before the season started, I don’t think Tepper will be as successful as some of you think.  I’ve got bad feelings that he may be a meddler moving forward and we all know how that turns out.

    • I mentioned this in another thread but i'll restate it here. Keeping a wait and watch approach and passing on the 5th year option kinda makes sense like obliquely, but in practice neither the team or the player wants it. The player doesn't want to risk injury when he could have at least another year locked up, and the team doesn't want to risk the player blowing up in their fourth year and holding the team over the barrel. If you're the QB and you're playing that well you obviously test the free agent market, and you'd probably be bitter about it as well.  modern first round qb contracts are essentially 3 year deals with the option of an additional 2 to put downward pressure on contract extensions. You either pick up the 5th year, extend with a new contract, or move on.  just sitting tight on the fourth year isn't a practical choice for any of the parties. 
    • The point was Miles Sanders wasn't just a guy in Philly. He was at least as good as Chuba has been in Carolina. 
    • I have not been impressed with our pass blocking since at least 2022. Still remember watching Darnold live against the Seahawks when we were dominating them in the run game and we still allowed far too much pressure on him regardless. It has not gotten much better since. In fairness to this year's unit, they have been hit by injuries. Oftentimes, even a mediocre overall unit is better than a stacked one if the former stays healthy throughout the entire season. Constant shuffling only means a much greater likelihood someone will blow their assignment and that's all it takes for a sack or worse.
