I think I was one of the people calling you out. I don’t think your reaction would have been as strong if the owner was a woman and her husband attended practice. But maybe I’m wrong about you. 
 

If I owned this poo show, I probably would have joined the brain trust (using that extremely loosely in this case) to watch practice and ask questions. I don’t think having her there has any impact whatsoever. But again, that’s just my opinion.

This is too bad. She, or anyone married to Tepper has every right to accompany him on his daily rounds. To be involved jointly in endeavors. Etc. And vice versa if she owned the team. Which I guess she partly might.

Women can be very smart of course and she may be the smartest EVER but at the same time we don’t really feel like she should be a go to in personnel matters. And we are justified in feeling that way. 

It’s like cross examining witnesses though, by involving herself in this at the level she is doing, she has opened the criticism door so it is fair game.

I'd rather stick with the power running scheme until we can trade the o-linemen who don't fit and replace them in the draft and free agency. Why immediately switch running schemes with no way of replacing the o-line so quickly without a fire sale and scrambling? Why immediately switch to a 3-4 when you can stick with the 4-3 until when have the right pieces in place next season? 

Of course we can stitch to the schemes that the new coaching staff wants to run, but did it have to be right out of the fugging gate? It didn't work. It's not working now, it's not going to work for the rest of the season. Why not just switch back to power running? The guys already know how to do it, and the play calling has been F- so far, so it's not like the new plays would be worse.

Fitt has been my nightmare for some time now, but a lot of our more recent troubles this season can be pinned on the coaching staff. Our OC will certainly be fired soon, and our plan going into this season was nothing short of idiotic. Move away from power running, pass a lot more, let the rookie QB make unlimited audibles at the line and throw a million short passes, and pass the offense over to a glorified RBs coach after the bye week. If you knew that was the plan going into this season, what would you have said would happen?

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
