Because Cam owned the locker room, even if he couldn't play anymore. A new coach can't come in and have a player running the place. Even on a good team like the Packers, a diva can create massive resistance. On a losing team, like we were/are that rift is massive.

Cam had to go, much like Smitty had to go to give Cam the leadership mantle.  

Yeah but 60% of that locker room was gone. Also, Cam didn't go to a place where he owned the locker room when he left. He went to the place where the locker room is completely controlled by a coach.

And, they actually loved Cam. He's just doesn't have "it" anymore.

I think this pretty much sums up what most of the frustration is. If he was getting paid near back up money it'd be fine, but one last Hurney move for the road eh?

fug that. He left Shaq, CMC AND Teddy's deals on the way out. That was a straight Hurney 1.0 exit.

God I was so mad when we came back and then stayed. Like 1 year while we search, whatever, but my god how stupid where we?

Two owners worth of dumb in that move. At least we have one that is learning from that mistake.

I think Tepper underestimated the level of Hurney’s stupidity. He wasn’t here for the first run so he hadn’t seen how so many of these deals had actually ended up.

Tepper has fully admitted that he basically knew next to nothing about football and being an owner in the NFL. He focused initially on the business side of the organization because that he knows very well and has had to learn the football side. In that regard, I think he kept Hurney around purely out of ignorance.

Eh he didn’t outplay Cam. Cam accounted for more TDs in less games even with catching Covid and Byrd as his #1 WR. Had he had DJ, Robby, and Curtis Samuel, numbers would have even been close. 

He had Moore, Samuel, McCaffrey and Olsen.

And was putting together another MVP season before TJ Watt wrecked his shoulder. Thanks for proving my point.
