A Hypothetical Question

I've said this in a few other threads but apparently Kellen Moore really impressed them so much that they didn't let him leave Charlotte for a second interview... Would not surprise me at all if Tepper went that route.

I can see the Chargers firing Staley and retaining Moore to be HC if Herbert continues to play well under him, kind of like what the Bucs did when they fired lovie and retained Dirk Koetter

Ben Johnson did one interview with us and noped straight out and said I'd rather just be the OC in Detroit than deal with this. We're an even bigger poo show now than we were then. So why would he have a change of heart? Tepper has plenty of faults but not being willing to pony up and pay coaches isn't one of them, so I don't think it'll simply be a throw more money at him thing. Hell probably end up somewhere like the Chargers.

They all declined after finding out how involved he wanted to be. Don’t blame them.

We’ll have to find a coach that is ok being micromanaged by Tepper AND is ok with Bryce at QB. Tepper is not going to give up on Bryce for at least another year.

College coaches who don't know any better or aging retreads looking for a retirement paycheck are essentially what we're left with.

    • I see the logic in what you're saying, but I'd also say there were games with a bit more talent on the roster that some of the L's are actually W's.  AZ - We don't get off to a crappy start and if this game is later in the season when Bryce is a bit more comfortable, I think we beat the Cards NO - At least one of, if not both of these games would've gone our way SF - Perfect opportunity to snag a win on the road that Purdy handed to us, but we couldn't do anything offensively TB - Final game was winnable in Tampa  All this to say, I think 8 wins is about where we were at in 2025 if you take the games we barely won and combined them against the games that we barely lost.  Add 5-6 new pieces in FA and the draft. We went head to head and almost beat the Rams in a meaningful playoff game that gave a lot of the youth that experience to take into 2026 and beyond, and I do think 10-11 wins is achievable next year.  Not guaranteed, but much the way folks thought we could get to 8 or 9 wins this year as the ceiling, I think 10-11 is the new ceiling for next year.
    • Milano at LB.  We just have Jags at the position. Can still draft an LB. Likely has to be in consideration at TE. Sanders hurt. TT FA. Doubs, Alec Pierce, Shaheed. All three could really help this offense in totally different ways. Doubs feels the most redundant of the group but he is also the most polished and talented wr. Be done w XL.  I still argue that Bryce needs an elite, Houston-type, defense in order to succeed here. I would legitimately find out the asking price to both Myles Garrett and Vita Vea. Cleveland is transitioning and will have a new coach. Vea is in last year of contract.  Assemble the best dline in football. Bring in Milano to fix ILB. Corners are good. Safety’s aren’t terrible and Ransom looks promising.  You’d have a 3 year window or so.   Biggest issue w any plan is going to be LT. Idk what the fix is there. 
    • Pegula just went full Tepper.  Everybody knows you never go full Tepper.
