But again, that has nothing to do with Staley. STs being good this season is attributable to Tabor.

What about his game log as an offensive player has shown you improvement from last season attributable to this coaching staff?

I don't go by stats. I go by what I see.

What I've seen is that when he was used, Blackshear looked good.

Keeping him inactive in favor of Miles Sanders hasn't exactly looked like a solid decision.

what exactly did they quote?

I know there is the clip of "finding a court in charlotte" or whatever but was there more?

I'm not saying there isn't a possibility that McCown liked Stroud more, just curious as to these quotes you are referencing.

I gave you the tweet for one of Holder's statements in another thread.

Is exact words there were that it's an "open secret around the league" that Tepper heavily influenced the quarterback choice.

Wouldn't this be an indictment of Reich and Staley though? Maybe he'll get more chances because the two guys who are most responsible for which RBs are up and who's getting snaps in the game are now out?

That's not really a hard thing to imagine.

Hard to see personality being an issue with McCown though.

It gets old getting trash talked by a guy who hasn’t had a 100 yr rusher all year. Not really sure what Duce does from a coaching standpoint

Of Reich, definitely.

His depth chart decisions have been one of my big criticisms of him.

here again, it's not mutually exclusive.

Saying Tepper pushed for Young, doesn't mean everyone else wanted Stroud.

This is the entire problem with this entire narrative around here, people are inferring things based off of their own agenda.

At the start of the draft season Tepper could have made it clear that he wanted to invest a drafted QB, the majority of the front office could have decided Young was the best option, and then Tepper could have pushed for the team to make it happen.  Tepper might have even been the deciding voice if they were split over it.

That is the same as Tepper heavily influencing the QB choice.  Doesn't mean everyone else wanted Stroud.

So we don’t have a head coach, QB coach, or RB coach…. and our Special Teams coach gets elevated to Interim HC?

How do our OC and DC not automatically get that nod?

This is so weird in a Titanic fashion.  That said, I’m all for blowing it all up.  (Most surprised at McCown though)

thats the problem you are seeing, owners shouldnt be pushing and influencing anyone.  They should be hands off so there is a clean evaluation which obviously didnt happen.  It was soiled the second the teppers hopped on the private jet with fitt and crew

Holder has also said that Reich wanted Stroud. So did the others mentioned above as well as Adam Schefter back during the draft.

Tabor is a very good coach, interesting to see how he does as a HC.

if you are referring to the tweet linked to me earlier, Frank doesn't tell Holder, Holder tells Frank who he think Frank wants.  Thats totally different.

Ok. I think we're talking in circles here. I guess my point is I did not see any notable improvement from Hubbard and especially Blackshear when it comes to their offense/RB roles that would make me think Staley was worth keeping around. The stats bear that out, you're saying your eye test tell you they are improved. I can't really argue with your eyes, but I'm not seeing this supposed improvement you are and thus I'm not surprised Staley was sent packing.

McCown fired over Bryce, a quarterback that wasn't his choice.

Staley fired over Sanders I guess, but Hubbard and Blackshear were both improved over last year.

Nicole jokes aside Hubbard can play
