For non-Texans fans: How will you react when this team goes 0-17?

Definitely GM... And probably HC if we're 0-17.  I don't think you can fire Reich Middle of his first season.  I really dislike firing coaches after one season in general, but 0-17 is a special sort of failure and I think that warrants wholesale cleaning.

On the other hand, if you stick with him and inevitably fire him year 2 mid season, at least you could evaluate Evero for HC. We won't be too hot a destination next year anyway unless BY heats up (in which case we don't go 0-17) since we lack draft capital.

There are a lot of Texans fans on our board right now and “told you sos” who circle jerk to CJ Stroud. 

It's just the many who had an affinity to Stroud during the draft process who are having a difficult time going through the continued lull.  They get panned as Texans fans, but it's all Pantherdom.  I wanted Stroud but I'm not going to cry about it--what's done is done.  

Can't really change it at this point but I think many need to realize given how we got to #1 overall, he will be compared to QB2 and QB3 his entire career.  Get used to it.

It wouldn't matter which of the 3 we picked they'd all be ass. This coaching and roster build was and is atrocious. More impatience from tepper pushed us further down the toilet bowl. It's never going to flush though.  Not till Tepper changes his ways or sells. We'll just continue to poo into that bowl until it's overflowing.

Do yourself a favor, put whoever that is on ignore.

Follow up.

How will Tepper react when CMC wins MVP and Stroud wins OROTR?

Like he just needs more time to figure things out. Y’all can beg for changes but they’re all superficial until Tepper stops calling the shots. But he doesn’t care, it’s not urgent for him. If he can’t do it no one will because there is no way to take credit otherwise. This is a toy to him - he doesn’t give two shits an out winning any other way.

Check it out, no one getting fired, except maybe Fitt, if we go 0-17.   How much dead money is getting paid out this season? How much money got paid to Rhule for his contract?  It’s too steep a price if you ask me Tepper is going to give it more time.   Personally as a fan, from what I have seen the past year and the start of this season, I expect us to lose out….not what I want, just what I see.  I will still pull for the team just a little less engaged and with very low hope/ expectations of success for a couple more years.

    • I'd edited to be more clear where he was ahead of league average, but realize it was easily missed, sorry.  I do hope he falls off a cliff production wise because if he actually continues at this pace it's highly likely the TDs come and then he'll be a real problem. Anyway, to the stats... Shough is substantially better than the average in completion percentage, YPG, and INT% (68% vs 64.4% and 237 vs 215 and 1.7 vs 2.2). He is pretty close to the average in Y/A (7.14 vs 7.1) and rating (91.63 vs 91.8). He is a bit below the average in TDs per game (1.3 vs ~1.5, which is hard to average exactly due to the number of players that are part of this stat), QBR (51.54 vs 54.7) and quite a bit below in TD% (3% vs 4.7%). In advanced stats, he's above the league average in intended air yards/attempt (8.1 v 7.7) and on target % (76.8 vs 74.6), while barely below is in bad throw % (16.1 vs 16.0). This jives with what I've seen - decent young player, playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter, on a bad team. I've always said (and this is true of Bryce too, I even mentioned it this year) that I am less concerned with 30+ yard bombs than consistency at 15+ yards, because you need to be able to threaten past the sticks. Shough is doing that. Vs us in week 15 he had ~one third of his passes 15ish or more yards and he was money on them, and that wasn't really an exception, he has had some nice throws outside of that.  All that said, dude is just super new to the league, and once film gets out, if he does have limitations they will be exploited. No way he can get OROTY. And thanks for the kind words - I am prone to hyperbole at times, but I'm also just impressed by Shough. We'll see if he can keep it up (I hope not, unless the Saints randomly trade him lol)
    • To be fair, going from 2 wins, to 5 wins, to 8 wins at least is a pretty big positive no matter how insufferably miserable a select handful in this group want to make everything.
    • Yeah Moore is definitely going to be a problem.  I remember he was the favorite for our job at one point in time.
