Tepper won't speak

What's up with the silent treatment? He should at least say something. He was out and about when we were 6-2 and now he's nowhere to be found.

Nothing will ever change with this mediocre franchise.

he simply said he wasn't going to speak when Steve Reed wanted to talk to talk him. 

I'm sure we hear from Tepper soon enough.

Official confirmation would be nice.  Hell a written statement or a post to social media.  Something.  

Whats even more strange is that Rivera indicated in his presser this morning that Tepper didn’t tell him he is safe.  He just said over and over that he concluded that he might be safe based on the tone and context of their conversions.  So odd.

if you dont have the balls to make changes then dont expect any changes franchise wise

If anything I think he seemed to be very in tune with the fans earlier in the season and in the pre season. So he probably knows that this move to keep the current regime wont be too well received by a lot  of fans.

I saw that too and thought it was odd as well.

this is one of the problems with too much access to info in today's world.

Random reporter wanted Tepper to speak "now".  Tepper says no thanks.  Now everyone paints this picture that Tepper is being silent and hiding.  Reporters don't get to demand and set the schedule.   No need to overreact because we in our instant gratification world, didn't get everything we wanted to know the exact moment you could argue he could of given an end of season/affairs report on the franchise in the hallway.

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
