Report: Tepper frustated by the offense

I think an important common thread between the Rhule offseasons and the one Reich offseason is the inability to replace or retain players who played with heart and inspired the team. 

Reddick was probably our best defensive player in 2021, but for some reason we move on and he signs with the Eagles for 15m per. Still looking for a legit replacement for that production. Same could be said about Gilmore who was a great vet presence for the DB room and actually wanted to stay here. 

Trading CMC was probably the right decision and we were lucky to have someone like Foreman on the roster who ran hard and gave us a great identity for the 2nd half of the season. Instead of retaining him for 3-4m, we pay a guy 2x that amount who seemingly doesn’t care & showed up for 1 quarter in half a season. 

Thielen is a good piece but we really tried to replace Moore’s role with Chark, who isn’t half the player even when healthy, which is a rarity. Replacing team leader types with JAGs has been a constant under Fitterer, I think that may be his worst quality as a roster builder. 
 

Guys wanting to get away from Rhule wouldn't exactly be shocking. Players are pretty loyal to Reich though.

And again, you have to remember that guys who don't fit the new systems aren't gonna be kept.

Tepper hasn't exactly been shy about firing people. What has it accomplished? History says he'll just make more bad hires. We're stuck in this cycle until Tepper admits that it's he who needs to be fired.

To be clear, I'm talking about what I think could happen, not what should.

I've already said elsewhere what I think should.

I understand new scheme and all, but replacing players who actually contribute with ones who don’t is certainly not better than having a less than ideal system fit. At least keep them around until you’re sure it’s not a massive downgrade.

Gotta remember though, I'm not debating merits here.

I'm pointing out the read I get on what Tepper's perspective might be given what we've heard.

Well at this point, it will only get worse, only if David Tepper becomes the new GM for the Panthers

Tepper might could hire a drunk huddler for the night to call the picks on draft day and it yield just as good of results as Fitt

Gee I wonder who “leaked” this lol

This mother f*cker is as dumb as it gets 

Well, not all of it is "leak". A fair amount of it is Russini's analysis, which could be spot on or off the mark (she's generally pretty good).

My takes in this discussion are based on whether her takes are correct, so... 😕

this report is 100% accurate because it’s coming from the dumbass himself

    • Penn is hanging with Illinois. They've got to rebound better off all these threes Illinois is jacking up. If they do better on the boards in the second half they'll have a chance late.
    • Duke will beat TCU but I can't see them beating kansas or st John's 
    • Dalton is ancient by NFL standards. Howell is only 25.  Howell's only year as a starter he put up almost 4k yards, 21/21 with a 43.2 QBR while being sacked 65 times.  This past year and the 3rd starting, which many would consider to be Bryce's best, he barely put up 3k yards 23/11 with a QBR of 47.6 while being sacked 27 times.  Pickett 4 years in the league, with 27 starts, he's amassed 4900 yards, 16/16 with a 53.6 QBR.  Now if Bryce were injured for a season, which QB would you say has more potential to step in and run an offense? I'd say Howell only because in a single season he threw for 1k yards less, more tds and granted more ints in 11 less games as a starter than Pickett's whole career.  Everyone is saying Pickett sucks, Howell sucks, but what I'm seeing is Bryce is right on par with them. Howell is on his 5th team, so is KP, yet Bryce just got a 5th year extension putting up pretty much similar numbers. The bar for QB on this organization is really low.  Did I want Howell? I didn't care. I wanted someone, anyone, who can potentially be better than what we've had the past 3 years or who we signed as a backup. We do not have even a mid tier NFL QB on the roster right now.  If Howell was brought in as camp fodder and didn't make the cut, wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. If we bring in another QB via the draft, I hope it's someone who could have the potential to be a starting QB with some development because that's the whole point.  We can't be afraid to bring in anyone who might have the potential to unseat Bryce or take his job if he's injured. The goal is to get winning seasons and make SB runs with hopefully a victory or 2. Pickett doesn't accomplish that. Dalton hasn't been able to even be in consideration for that role in over 2 years.
