I love it when Tepper thinks he has it all figured out and proudly announces to the world just how damn dumb he is on football matters.

Bengals owner- “we have to get Burrow an Elite Weapon like Chase, even if it means ignoring the OL”

Bills owner- “we need to get Young Josh Allen a number 1 guy, like Diggs”

Miami- We should surround our Young QB wihh th Weapons.

Jax- we need to get Trevor some help, even if it means grossly over paying a Christian Kirk

 

 

 

Tepper- we don’t need no elite weapons.

Happy for them! They were playing well here, so it's not surprising that they're playing well in new locations.

If Bryce Young develops into the franchise QB that the team is hoping for, then it was a solid trade for all parties. The #61 pick for CMC was packaged along with DJ to move up for Bryce. #93 + #132 were used to move up for DJ Johnson who has shown flashes that he can set the edge in the NFL (but still needs to develop his pass rush arsenal).

Bryce Young alone makes both trades worth it if he ends up the next franchise QB. If DJ Johnson turns out to be a starting edge rusher as well? Then shoot... I got to see CMC + DJ play for the Panthers and see them ball out win their veteran seasons while the capital that the team gained from them was used on a QB + DE.

I will say this... the fans that bitched relentlessly about trading an overpaid RB, doing anything possible to aggressively gamble on a QB at #1, and claimed that DJ Moore isn't a top 20 WR sure do seem to be mad that the team did everything that they wanted. 😮

Looking back on it, the comments from Tepper about not needing elite receiver's are outrageous.

The way he throws the ball, the way he’s a point guard, how you can use the different players on the field, how you might not have to have as many elite receivers because he’s the point guard, right? So he distributes the ball to people with routes. So we can save some money there, we can save money in other places and put that money on the defensive side of the ball. 

Young never stood a chance with these guys thinking you can give him some JAG receivers and put points on the board.

What's baffling is they admitted they were enamored with Bryce because of his "point guard mentality". Well, if you surround a pass first PG with a trash supporting cast on the basketball court, you're gonna have trash.

The Cam approach all over again. We have "that dude" at QB so now we can just focus completely on D. Except Bryce ain't no Cam. He's not making anything happen on his own in an NFL field.

The fact that he thinks he understand nfl qbs should rattle each and every huddler to their bones.   This dumpster fire of a franchise is in for a long ride unless he simply steps aside

I guess I never understood the pointguard mentality, isnt every QB a pointguard? They all pass the ball to their receivers lol. I get maybe like Cam or AR are more capable on their own making plays because they can run, but Stroud is more of a passer than runner, the point guard thing was always a strange thing.

Just feels like this organization under Tepper has to create some type of bullshit narrative to sell themselves in what they've already decided to do.

      Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.

      Bryce Young now leads the NFL in game-winning drives since his debut

      It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now.

      The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
