Frank given the option to change?

I mean, Tepper certainly alluded to each  firing having its own unique reasoning to it.  All this certainly sounds plausible.  Dinosaur Frank simply unwilling to bend what he does on O for a rookie QB.  And that matches the eyeball test as well as echos critiques folks like 89 were hammering yesterday.

So they fired him for not running something that he's never historically run. This is on Tepper and the FO for not knowing who they hired and the system he runs, and saddling him with a QB that doesn't fit that system. This organization is something else, I tell ya.

False

So what's changed between now and then that is making him unwilling to incorporate RPO now?

No idea probably lack of talent.... Him and Doug Peterson made the RPO a thing in 2017 when the Eagles won the SB your not the first one to say that either it seems to be a common misconception here that's what he was hired to do.

100% true. They should have seen how bad his teams in Indy got and how he refused to change.

It’s also on Frank for not pushing for Stroud (if any of that is really true). If he did want a different QB, it certainly sounds like he didn’t fight for it.

100% false he made the RPO a thing he HAS EXPERIENCE with it heck he was the "primary innovator at the NFL level"

Said this in another thread but I have a hard time believing Frank was bullied into betting his career on a QB he didn't want and then grew a spine when asked to run some RPOs. 

Grew a spine when asked to run RPOs the same thing he road to a SB win as the coordinator of Eagles.... when the bs he was running obviously wasn't working...

Yeah they are running wild with these guesses. Tepper and Reich have plenty of issues without the media trying to create more. My guess is he did incorporate some RPO, I mean I saw a few ran on Sunday, but didn’t dial it up nearly enough before it didn’t flow with what he was calling on the field.

Chip Kelly brought it to the league, and we were running RPO with Cam before 2017, but your point stands. It just doesn't add up that if he's known for an RPO offense, he would refuse to utilize one.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
