The coast is clear and we now are in prime postion for our 4th coach in the Tepper era. Even though the core problems still remain.

  • David Tepper 
  • Scott Fitterer 
  • Bryce Young (jury still out, but barely) 

The question everyone is asking themselses what circus move will we make next? Nick Saban, Jim Harbaugh, and the biggest one Bill Belicheck. I can see it now in Febuarary, Tepper backs in the brinx trunk in MA to Bill to be the sole GM/Coach. Highest paid with unlimited control. What could go wrong? https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10098390-peter-king-on-bill-belichick-cowboys-chargers-panthers-are-possible-landing-spots

  • Brady as QB
  • .666% winning percentage 
  • 6 SB Seasons 
  • 30-12 in the playoffs. 

Sounds great! until you dive in deeper. Life without Brady:

  • Overwhelmed QB issues since Brady
  • Alabama QB.... that looks lost at times, we can relate.
  • 82-98 record (.456%) 

Below is a look at each of the non-Brady quarterbacks that have started under Belichick and the records they have posted for him as of Week 5 of the 2023 NFL season.

Quarterback Team Record
Mac Jones Patriots 18-23
Vinnie Testaverde Browns 17-16
Bernie Kosar Browns 11-18
Matt Cassel Patriots 10-5
Cam Newton Patriots 7-8
Drew Bledsoe Patriots 5-13
Mike Tomczak Browns 4-4
Jimmy Garoppolo Patriots 2-0
Bailey Zappe Patriots 2-0
Mark Rypien Browns 2-1
Todd Philcox Browns 2-3
Jacoby Brissett Patriots 1-1
Eric Zeier Browns 1-3
Brian Hoyer Patriots 0-2

 

I hope it's a hard pass, but I feel we will go for the big name coach. Johnson OC for the lions is the only option moving forward.

Ben Johnson is not coming here. Why go to a team that has no roster, no first round pick, a meddling owner who forces you to take his draft picks, and a QB whose looked shaken at best when you can go to the team that has those picks, a war chest, or another team that’s already ready to compete in the playoffs? Johnson will be highly sought after and will have his choice of teams to go to. Panthers will be dead last of places he'll want to go to.

The egos of Tepper and Belichick colliding would probably be a fun poo show.

I can't see Belichick being interested. He basically made the Bryce mistake with Mac Jones thinking a great college QB could overcome his obvious physical limitations with mental brilliance. I can't see him having any interest in coaching Bryce Young.

That'd be another wildly entertaining collision of massive egos.

It'd be entertaining as hell.

Would it be a winning combination?  Not so sure about that.

Also feel pretty certain that neither Harbaugh nor Belichick would be okay having weekly meetings with Tepper.

I wonder how Tepper would have taken it if his hedge fund clients wanted to have weekly meetings to critique his every portfolio move and have him defend it?

      It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt.

      That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
