Tepper doesn't believe in using outside consultants.

He made that quite clear during the hiring of both Matt Rhule and Scott Fitterer.

Right. Which is why I said we have to hope that he gets over himself. For rational people, seeing this straight trash and clusterfug on the field as a result of one’s own choice at least encourages a bit of thought/change.

Will it for Tepper? I don’t know but if it doesn’t, it really doesn’t matter what happens, this franchise is doomed.

Kinda wondering if he would like to rethink that position right about now.  He's proven he doesn't have any idea what he is doing and his instincts are almost exactly wrong.

But, it is his team to screw up as he wishes.

Also, if I remember correctly JR had the same feelings on consultants for 20 years and then changed his tune because he was surrounded by idiots. Hopefully Tepper catches on to the fact he’s not qualified and is here because he’s rich. And yes that will probably prove to be a challenge for him.

Given his ego, kinda doubt it.

See above.

Honestly, having him leave the job to Fitterer and Morgan is probably the best option right now.

It's Hurney all over again.

Blamed EVERYTHING on John Fox, ran him out of town, and then left that dumfug Hurney as GM.

Why keep a holdover, one of the most important pieces at that, of the previous regime when that regime was a total and complete disaster.

Just clean house, new GM, new coaching staff. Clean slate for a new regime.

Anyone that thinks Fitt is worth keeping go look at that Ian Thomas contract. Go look at how we gave up nearly an entire draft worth of picks for Mayfield, Darnold and Henderson.

Do people think good GM candidates are gonna be attracted to a team whose owner fired the last guy even though he didn't have power over the roster? 🤔

Tepper gives an unqualified college coach full roster control over a seasoned NFL personnel guy, then fires the personnel guy despite forcing him to work under the unqualified college coach, and we're expecting other people to want to work for this owner?

Yes.

There are only 32 NFL GM jobs in the world, any given year they are only a few open. 
Will an established, proven GM, who is currently in a GM position be willing to jump ship, maybe not, but there be plenty of “candidates” that will be willing to work for Tepper.

Lack of candidates will not be the issue, choosing the right one will be the issue, but that is the case for any HC or GM hire.  If there was a proven formula every ram would have a good HC and GM.

    • I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.  
    • I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years. 
    • He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
