Tepper to speak on Tuesday

[TheBigKat]

Rest in POWER bigcat, rest in POWER.... you didn't deserve to get your franchise stripped away like that during cancel culture and then have to sell to this schlub 

[WarHeel]

I was under the impression his name was pronounced “Rike.”

 

Did he just say he has tremendous respect for Frank “Ryche?”

That's not what he said.

He said it was nearly unanimous among staff to go Bryce. He could of vetoed but didn't. 

Correct, but he also said the original plan was to draft CJ

Yeah I don't get where these comments are coming from.

I told everyone that Brown and Reich's offense was designed for CJ and not Young. Tepper ruined this staff's chance before it started

Tepper got shook by that Stroud/Young question.

At pick 2 because they thought Texans would go Bryce.

he literally just said it but I am sure some posters are going to have their head in the sand

Cope gonna cope.

Moving beyond the pick it's crystal clear Tepper has not changed one iota. If anything this has made him dig in even deeper. He is not giving up any level of control of this franchise. We are going to see things done his way even if it ends in turmoil yet again.

He also admitted the original plan was to go to pick #2 and take CJ Stroud.

go back and watch, he fumbles the damn answer and alludes to having a veto

 

Im sure there will be a transcript, if you dont think he made the pick then I am not sure what to tell he literally just said he had final say

[emcannon]

Master class in holding a press conference but not actually providing any substantive responses. Had a lackey designating who from the press corps could ask questions, provided vague non-answers and time at the mic limited to 15 minutes, no follow-up questions allowed. Pretty sure Fowler wasn't called upon to ask a question, no shocker there.

I'm not defending him, at all. I hate him. But let's not twist words.

Can't watch but did he really just admit that Reich wanted Stroud and he didn't? fug...

No. 

He said he allowed them scouts and coaching staff to make a decision on who to draft and that he supported both of their decisions and that is was unanimous btwn the coaches and scouts.  

He went onto say that if he wanted to he could have vetoed the decision but that he did not.  

He also took responsibility for the franchises failures since he bought the team.
