No one has a long Leash (including Reich)

If they do fire Fitt they should look at firing Reich and letting the new GM pick his HC.  Honestly the best thing moving forward would hiring a director like many have stated to run things, having a committee (ran by new director) find a new GM and letting the new GM find his HC.  I don't like pairing new GMs with old HCs and vise versa.  Build a roster and offense around Young and see how he does the next year or two.  If the new HC doesn't like what he see from Young after year 2 we will have our 1st rounder back to try again and let him pick his guy.  

You know I love the "football consultant" idea, but I wouldn't want anybody hired or fired until that guy is in place and has had a chance to evaluate everything.

David Tepper just needs to sit on his ass until someone smarter than him is in place.

Right before Frank made the decision to give up playcalling (all on his own, his decision, just like it was when he did stuff in Indy)_.....he essentially told us what is going on.  To me that was coach speak of telling the world this is Colts/Isray all over again for him.  

Frank does not enjoy his weekly Monday morning Tepper meetings.

Tepper needs to fire himself from the football side of the house. I mean, based on the Rock Hill fiasco probably the business side as well. But definitely the football side.

The stories that he was an extremely difficult person to work for are certainly looking more credible at this point.

Best way to improve the Monday morning meetings is to do better. Nobody should have had to force him to give up playcalling, he should have figured that out on his own. He also should have adapted his system to fit the team personnel. So it is his own fault. Tepper also seem difficult. Both can be true.

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
