Honestly this could be a good thing. If he is persuading our staff who to draft and what to do maybe his frustration will be a wake up call. This is pretty much all we can hope for at this point. 

yeah I hope you are absolutely right.however with that said with David Tepper's track record as of date &  just like going into the locker room this afternoon & screaming obscenities at the team after the game just goes to show you that yeah he is going to be involved & heavily involved at that ...just saying

I don't care if he sets up permanent residence in the locker room as long as he stays out of any and all football decisions.

But I'm not holding my breath waiting on that happening.

No owner stays out of football decisions. Especially one like Tepper. It’s a fantasy world.

This is how normal people operate. It's not how egomaniacal billionaires generally act. If anything, he'll probably think he needs to be even more involved.

Absolutely not true at all. Reich said so himself and he’s a dinosaur. Hell, even JR hired someone to make those decisions. It’s also rare an owner create a round table of personnel making those decisions that includes his wife, who is just an inept as the owner, along with giving a spot to a customer service rep who has no clue about football decisions either. And so 3/6 of that ‘round table’ are already in agreeance. Thats rare. It’s beyond egotistical. It’s NOT how other owners do things. See where I’m going with this ? 1-10. You think a coach will be hired and some in and argue with half the table? Lol

Why are you acting like Tepper, his operation, and his weekly meetings are happening all over the league? They aren’t.

Name an owner not involved. You’re already incorrect if you think Jerry “don’t get any tattoos” Richardson wasn’t involved

Fair I agree with you honestly at least Jerry knew football though...

People can crap on Tepper for the pick but honestly I'm more po'd at the retread coach who doesn't understand modern routes or playing to the teams strengths (power running)

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
