Mike McCarthy just got fired .. Might be open season for this firings to get started. 

Hue Jackson beat him to it, but that was pretty early. This time of the year it does become more likely.

I still don't think it happens before the end of the season though.

Welp that's pretty much the writing on the wall. Usually if a report like this comes out, the owner will say we are not firing our HC. The fact Tepper didn't say anything is pretty telling.

Time to start the HC search and GM.

 

I don't know about HC, but I would like to hire Louis Ridick of ESPN. This guy knows football. He has an eye for talent and knows his x's and o's. Also helps he is on a major platform to talk football.

He’s a born loser who single handedly wasted and now ruined the greatest on-field asset this organization ever had. That’s unforgivable. He should have been gone years ago. No courtesy. No pleasantries. No discussion. Fired.  Don’t ever come back around here. 

What a post--you s/b banned for this.

Tepper keeps a set of brass testicles on his office desk.  I don't think he gives af about kind gestures lol.

Brass testicles has no correlation to trying to publicly humiliate someone.

Someone who has made as much money investing long-term as Tepper would not be impetuous enough to disgrace a coach just to appease a certain element of the fanbase.

    • Right...I think they've done really well. No one's going to bat 1000% but they've addressed areas of need and there's no comparison to the overall talent of the team now than when DC and then Morgan got the reigns. This whole season is about seeing how much of a step up can Bryce and this team make. If Bryce can't and last year is as good as it gets for him then at least we have a talented roster for the next guy. I think we're going to be good this season 
    • I said could, not would. I recognize he has potential based on past performance. Compared to what KP has done, Howell has more potential and the physical traits to make noise. KP has small hands and a weak arm. Not something you want in even your backup QB.  I've been hammering since last off-season before we re-signed Dalton, improve the room. Other than getting younger, I don't see how anyone can say we legitimately improved the room or even tried. We might as well have signed Josh Rosen.  Dalton is still on the roster for now. That's 3 QBs unless we trade or cut him. He's still Bryce's mentor after all. Do you believe we are going to draft someone with potential and give them a legitimate opportunity to develop from the practice squad? Are we going to carry 3 QBs on the active roster? 4 for a developmental rookie? Are we going to potentially cut KP if we draft a rookie and he's outperformed? Doubtful. Cutting Dalton(if we can't trade him) and KP would be 8m in wasted cap space.  I chose Howell as an example because he showed promise in his only full season as a starter. You could plug in another name with the physical traits and potential and what i said would still apply. KP showed almost nothing and was benched. I genuinely don't care if it’s rookie pick as long as there is the potential to develop into a future NFL QB.  As much as I can't stand him, Bellichek was always developing a number 2 QB even with the GOAT as his starter. The wisdom of that was evident when Cassell came in when Brady was hurt week 1 and went 11-5 and almost made the wildcard, which 11-5 gets you almost any other year. I give credit where it's due though. Cassel and Jimmy G both came into the league as developmental QBs, potential QB1s, and went on to have careers.  You never know if you never try. KP feels like a punt in addressing the most important position on the field. Bryce has never played 2 full games of franchise QB level football back to back.  If Bryce progresses, are you ready to offer a 280m 5 year extension based off a one hit wonder year? If Bryce regresses and we need a QB in 27, are we going to trade a fortune away again to trade up to 1 to get one? Are you ready to do the past 3 years all over again?  To me, it's not about Kenny Pickett. It's about the move itself. It was a feeble attempt to improve the QB room. We better hope Bryce succeeds, because if he doesn't, we literally have no backup plan right now.   
    • IOL that early isn’t good value at all. We have a LT who might not ever be good again and a RT that might retire soon. T seems deep early in this draft, so I’d go there in the 1st.
