I think we have a problem and it's bigger than Reich. Or Fitterer. Or Bryce Young. Or any other coach, player, or front office personnel. Ever since Tepper started "putting his stamp on the football side of the house" (I think that's the verbiage he used) after focusing on the business side of operations in year one, everything has been a series of comedies of errors. Tepper gets involved and makes a bold decision and proudly announces it to the world. Everything goes to poo. Tepper disappears. Tepper reappears to announce another bold move. Everything goes to poo. Tepper disappears. It's a recurring theme.

Fixed.

She doesn't have any qualifications and neither does Dave, but they own the team.  I know Tepper is the current owner, but Nicole is part of his family and holds a position.  The Steelers have Anthony Rooney as a Scouting Intern, Dan Rooney Jr as VP of Player Personnel, Arthur Rooney Jr as VP and Arthur Rooney II (which is different than Jr for whatever reason) as the President.  

Holy fug dude you need to do some research on the rooneys if you are going to use them as an example compared to nicole.  Which rooney do you have a problem with holding a position?

Yeah yeah, forgive me for not remembering sh!t about The Eagles from 6 years ago. Reich's record in Indy was still better than the last 4 coaches we've had here.

I don’t think that means much now. He will be 0-6 come the bye and I don’t see us beating the Texans or Colts. So 0-8.

Completely missed the point. I have no problem with the Rooney’s and I’m showing you that other owners also let their family have positions. Sometimes to the good. @frankwcaught on pretty easy.

they worked for them and gained experience, nicole was simply given the role with absolutely no background or work experience

They were given jobs to get experience because of their family.  It's really not that uncommon in the workplace.  Especially when there is no board and the company is owned by one person or family.

Which rooney do you have an issue with?  Because I am seeing them start at the bottom and work their way up.  You know gaining valuable experience.  Nicole was simply given the job and allowed to come and give input on coaches and pro days.   She doesnt need to be there.

I don't have an issue with any of them.  I am using them to show it isn't a big of a deal that Nicole has a position with the team.  Robert Kraft's son Jonathan immediately became VP, Vice Chairman, and now President of the Patriots.

alright how about this.  Its not a big deal for her to work at Tepper sports.  It is however a big deal that she is given input on coach hirings, qb selections and draft day trades.  Would you agree with that statement?

If Reich didn't want Bryce, I'm 100% on board with firing both Reich and Fitterer today, literally TODAY

How can you hire a new HC, then trade away the franchise's future to take an undersized and under skilled QB that he didn't even want?

That would just be an utter failure on all accounts, fire Fitterer for taking Bryce and fire Reich for allowing him to take Bryce (if the HC really didn't want him, he could have stopped it and forced our hand to Stroud).

This is the kind of crap Steve Wilks had to deal with in Arizona and subsequently that record was and experience is why many here acted like he was a pariah!

    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
    • What weird blood red moon has cast its spell?  What’s next, dogs and cats sleeping together? Bonus question:  Did Canales open up his playbook or did Bryce find an extra high gear in his stick shift?
