Tepper involved ?

Thought I heard that. On the one hand it's not a good thing for owners to get involved at that level, on the other no one trusts Rhules personnel decisions after last year so maybe that's a situation where Tepper will side with Fitt and McAdoo if Rhule is being stubborn.

Biggest Revelations

Mayfield will wear #6, which means Johnny Hekker will wear #4 or #13...or #1 😐

Baker has relatives in both Spartanburg and Charlotte, so he's heard about the heat.

He hasn't eaten at Bojangles yet.

And lastly, no Progressive commercials in BOA. Baker pitched the idea but it was rejected (damn it) 😠

so are they saying anything? 

can't watch.

 

The thing that I zeroed in on was Baker apparently believing (or knowing) that he will have more "freedom" at the line to audible and counterpunch based upon what the opposition is trying to do.

The owner should never be involved in those kinds of decisions.

I doubt he will be.

Fitterer's comment just sounded like kind of an offhand thing to me, i.e Tepper will be around for stuff but I seriously don't he'll have any involvement in depth chart or playing decisions.

He was allowed to do this in college, from what I hear stefanski wanted the offense ran how he wanted and didnt give him a lot of freedom to audible.

People are gonna be looking for a "gotcha" moment but there really wasn't one.

The only thing I heard that people could potentially pick up on was a dismissive comment where he said something like he doesn't really care about people's negative opinions.

Should he?

Maybe, maybe not. Tepper is giving me more and more wannabe Jerry Jones vibes.

Not really.

But ya know how it goes...

I suspect that he has a serious problem with criticism though based upon his responses about only caring what people in the building think.

Isn't that kinda how Newton was too, though?

I would add that he mentioned he already knows Campen's O-line terminology/protections so that's half the battle really. Now it's just translating the playbook.

      Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.

      It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now.

      The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
