Talking about a .547 win % as if that's a great record. Guess what Rivera's win % was in Carolina? .546% and folks couldn't wait to run him out of here. Reich is and always has been a mediocre head coach. 

I think part of Holder's point is that he had an interfering owner with the Colts as well. In that case, one who actually dictated to him who he'd start at quarterback.

What we really need is an owner whisperer.

Well at least Tepper has hired on his young trophy wife in an official team capacity. And like so many brave pioneers before her, when she realizes she doesn’t have to be married to the old billionaire for herself to be a billionaire, she will divorce him, take half the team in a settlement, some typical allegations of impropriety will surface and the outrage mob will force a sale. I figure another 4-6 years of this before the team gets sold again. My vote is for the Saudi’s. Say what you want about human rights abuses, the guys know how to throw money at a problem to fix it!

Bullshit. That only happened in his last few games there. I give Reich the benefit of the doubt when it comes to having to roll with Brissett when Luck retired right before the season, but I don't think Irsay was the one pushing Reich to go for Rivers, Wentz, or Ryan. I firmly believe all three of those, and especially Wentz, were guys Reich advocated for.

People tout Reich's record with 5 different starting QBs as if that's not an indictment of Reich. I think Tepper is probably embarrassed that he bought into this QB whisperer aura when all Reich is proven, especially post Sirianni, is that he can put together a plodding offense with a veteran QB. Not surprised that @Leaky_Faucet has mentioned time and again that Reich wanted Carr here rather than a rookie QB. BTW, Carr looks like garbage in New Orleans too, so that doesn't reflect well on Reich either IMO.

I looked it up, yeah, it looks like you are right, he only lasted 3 games before resigning as Falcons head coach

I was wrong, he lasted 13 games so he is not the first, I looked it up Pete McCulley is the shortest with 9 games unless you count Belichick who only lasted 1 day or George Allen who lasted 2 preseason games

It happened before that.

Holder had an extensive story about Reich's last year in Indianapolis and the absolute sh-t show that resulted in Jim Itsay hiring (and trying to keep) Jeff Saturday as his head coach.

I'm sure Reich was happy to get away from Irsay, but then he got stuck with David Tepper.

      REPORT: RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) may not be ready for the start of training camp.

      By NorthTryon · Posted

      Insanity is doing the same thing over and over the same way expecting different results. So just because all of the previous GMs and coaches were fired instantaneously, Morgan and Canales shouldn't try to build for the future? That is about as asinine a thought as a fan would have. Is it not your hope that Tepper will let this GM build a team and not lose his mind during the long needed rebuild? We all hope this team can compete this year, but do you expect a deep playoff run? We still have Sanders and Chuba, so drafting a back who will be better than both of them and sitting him is fine. Lastly,  not only is reading fundamental, so is comprehension. I was talking about the dichotomus devaluing of the running back position by the masses while also knowing they are still very valuable in building a potent offense. Nobody was comparing him to the RB gawd CMC! Still a little funny he is continuing to get paid handsomely when other RBs are being devalued, but that's neither here nor there. I'm just glad all of those injury issues he had here have seemingly cleared up almost completely.

      Nate Tice article on Bryce Young

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      From the national perspective it appears that way.  Feel free to disagree but the from the unbiased view points this year probably will be ugly again.  From the Athletic: Carolina Panthers Under 5.5 (-105) Everybody loves guards. Who knew? The Panthers spent $150 million on guards Robert Hunt and Damien Lewis, and people are pounding the over, betting this number up from 4.5. While Bryce Young will take less than the 62 sacks he was hit with last season, and Diontae Johnson should prove to be a reliable target, I don’t know if I see three more wins than last season. I didn’t love the draft haul, there will be some growing pains for new coach Dave Canales, and Brian Burns was a big loss on defense.
