Would you put it past Tepper to move the team?

In large part because we keep investing in awful QBs from the NFL's rubbish bin and we don't have the type of football organization to attract decent vets with other options. This is a mess of their own doing.

No doubt, and they should have seen it coming, particularly with Darnold. But this team will be a bottom dweller until we luck into a QB. Personally, I had no issue with tearing down the defense and rebuilding it, because frankly that entire side of the ball has probably been on the team since the 90's. I mean our defense was old, really old.

Imo, until we find a QB, nothing else matters. Do we need to reset the coach and/or GM to find a QB? Maybe if they keep being dumber than bricks when it comes to that position. The fact Baker Mayfield isn't on our roster right now is promising though. (The bar for this crew is set pretty low at this point)

It’s so hilarious how everything I predict ends up getting flamed and then 6-12 months later, people say the same thing. 

Me, Fall 2020: Matt Rhule is the worst coach in the NFL.
Huddle, Fall 2020: Shut up idiot. Be patient. Matt has a plan. 
Huddle, Fall 2021: Matt Rhule is the worst coach in the NFL. 

Me, Fall 2021: Tepper is gonna end up moving the team to a different city. 
Huddle, Fall 2021: Shut up idiot. Be patient. Tepper would never move this team. 
Huddle, Spring 2022: Tepper is gonna end up moving the team to a different city.

 

 

You're one person on a forum of a few hundred regular posters and readers. I've been here since 2011 and for some reason I don't recall seeing you post anything until now. Your opinion isn't worth a hill of beans in this arena fam. BET!

First of all, yes, of course he would move the team if there was an option that made financial sense. You are insane if you think any of these owners care about the locations of these teams. Every single year one of these assholes begs their respective city council for billions of dollars to build a stadium at the tax payer expense. It isn't the "government" that pays for these stadiums, its literally you and me, and somebody, somewhere absolutely has to tell them  to kick rocks at some point. 

I don't understand why any sports league needs "owners".  It is an outdated concept that causes more problems than not. Look at the Washington situation, or the Miami situation, or the Houston situation or the Detroit situation etc. These out of touch crybabies rake in millions every year and demand the tax payers build their stadiums, while getting what in return? Seriously, why does this league need owners? I honestly had a lot of hope for Tepper, but he has literally made me believe that owners in sports need to go. That is how bad this regime has been. It might be for the BEST if he does decide to skip town. Then in 5 years maybe the Carolinas would finally get a competent franchise.

It's been shown by deep dive economic analyses that flashy new stadiums provide terrible ROI for municipalities. I hope they tell Tepper to pound sand.

55% of people disapprove giving the Bills 850M to build a new stadium, while  22% approve. These stadiums are nothing more than welfare for the rich. Its  the city council saying well you're rich and connected so here is MORE MONEY even though NOBODY gets ANYTHING in return. Across the board people need to shut this poo down. It is the clearest example of crony capitalism imaginable. And fug Tepper in my Baker Mayfield voice

I keep seeing people say this, but where would he actually move them to outside the Carolinas? The pickins are slim.

St Louis? They still have no stadium, have lost teams twice, and probably not the base to add value.

Salt Lake City? No stadium and probably at their limit for teams to split local corporate dollars.

Portland? No stadium, unlikely to build one, and probably too close to Seattle.

Oakland? A dump of a stadium, soon to lose the A's, already lost the Raiders, and the region has moved on. 

San Antonio? No stadium, decent market size when combined with Austin, but the Texans AND Cowboys won't let it happen.

Orlando? Maybe, but FL may be at it's market max.

Louisville? Colts territory likely--and again, no stadium.

Toronto? Maybe--definitely better choice than any US option.

London? Maybe--same situation as Toronto.

 

So it's Toronto or London--and if we hear of them starting discussions with either place, I wouldn't worry as a fan. The government will and give them new digs, but that's the extent of it.

San Antonio would happen once jerry jones goes because he doesnt want 3 teams in texas and wants it all about the cowboys. I do like toronto or london because fug it

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
