I will always be a fan regardless of the shat storm that may be happening at any given time. My life doesn't revolve around any sport, but I am a twenty plus year fan.

I can see casual fans not being into them, but anyone who has been involved with this team are still excited.

You may be right, I dont know, but we are 72 hours or so from kickoff I would think either Tepper and/or fitt would take over the controls if samir was truly the one holding all of this up. 

Samir was promoted in the offseason to have decision power on our spend. Tepper may be able to override him, but I think Fitt would be more of a lateral decision maker. It's very likely our front office is setup like our coaching staff. Everyone owns their own bucket of work. 

ie:
Fitterer: Roster management and acqusitions
Dan Morgan: Scouting
Samir: Salary Cap
Adrient Wilson: Player evaluation

 

The model of one person owning it all is slowly moving its way out the NFL. There are many FOs that have multiple decision makers as opposed to just one.

you have to trust the people you hire... Normally we'd argue that Tepper is too involved in the franchise, now it sounds like we are disapointed he isnt getting invovled?

Anyways, my whole point is that this hasnt played out yet... so for right now... we wait... we overeact... then we relax.

Agreed. Stepping in and taking over would be a Matt Rhule type maneuver.

One would think that after a whole offseason of whining, bitchhing, and moaning that fans would be ready for some football.

 

Yet 2 days before the season starts we still have whining, bitchhing, and moaning. Evidently there is no limit to the amount of negativity this board can produce.

 

Fanatic thy name is Panther fan.

So you want to overpay Burns?  Sometimes playing hardball is the best way to meet in the middle.  Rams trade aside (that's a sunk cost now) we appear to be trying to not overpay him.

If Tepper involved himself in this you'd be angry about a meddling owner... I think a lot of people actively try to find something to be upset about. Before we grab the pitchforks why don't we wait until we either hear negotiations have came to a halt or we have a new contract.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
