This is straight up depressing stuff

We’d still be a solid franchise if Richardson still owned us. We went downhill quickly once Tepper became the boss. 

It's getting to that point. No back to back winning seasons but at least the highs were a fun ride. So far there has been none of that with Tepper. Firing Rivera wasn't even the wrong decision. It was placing himself at the head of the table in the coaching search with Marty Hurney riding shotgun as his yes man instead of hiring real football minds to navigate the process. Now worse yet he has doubled down and entrenched his wife within the ranks.

Let’s see:

-two AWFUL head coach hires. You are in denial if you think Reich is going to work. 
 

-A GM who is drunk and trading picks left and right for nothing in return. 
 

-Terrible draft picks. 
 

Like WTF are they talking about and doing in meetings? It’s puzzling that Tepper can be this bad at football.

I think some people forget what a POS JR really was while drowning in Teppers' endless mistakes. Trading losing for mediocrity at that cost is as sad as these stats.

I won't miss Tepper like I don't miss JR. 

I think you’re forgetting or not seeing what a POS most owners in this league. JR was a former player who understood football. We were better off with him.

No thanks. We would be better off getting to try again. I do agree about the most owners thing. On to a the next turd, no need to bring one back.

Firing Rivera was the right move. Tepper has just made wrong one after wrong one ever since.

He should have immediately hired either a nfl consultant or a CEO/president type to handle firing hurney/RR and then let that person build the infrastructure.  His mistake was simply trying to do it and learn how to do it on the fly.  And as you see from the numbers above he doesnt know a damn thing about building a nfl franchise.

Tepper is not a meddling owner, he just kinda sucks at hiring the right guys.

When you don't know poo about the workings of a football organization and you're making the decisions on HC, GM, which players to pursue, having your wife make trades, etc, you're meddling. 

What he's doing is basically the equivalent of trying to build 50 million dollar mansion being his own GC when his real job is a dentist.

    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth. 
    • Jones got projected as the next Eli because they share a similar goofball, on the spectrum energy.  That's my theory.
    • I didn't think underrated was the wildest statement. The passing and offensive command he showed in week 18 against Atlanta was as good as any QB that has ever played for this franchise.  I mean THAT part is wild.  Which plays into the overrated part.  End of regulation I don't think he even hit 200 yards passing.  I mean he had a very efficient day vs a weak defense.   As good as we have ever seen in Carolina?
