The slight good news is it can be only be upward from here I hope......?

Unless we bring in Bill and the Patriots staff. Then our offense will never recover and we’ll continue to pick sucky receivers. Evero would be gone in that scenario but at least the Pats are competent on defense. It’s pretty clear at this point that Brady carried Bill.

There are two outcomes of Tepper receiving mainstream ridicule: 

1. He realizes his mistakes and rectifies the situation by lessening his impact on decision making. (He'll never remove himself completely, no owner does.)

2. He doubles, triples, and quadruples down on his idea that he's the decision maker, and he'll desperately try to prove the doubters wrong with attempt after attempt to finally get it right.

I'll leave it up to y'all to determine which is the more likely outcome.

The scariest situation for me is Tepper doubling down on his way, failing for years but eventually seeing a little success, and concluding his way works.

I don’t get the whole “went need Bellichick” narrative.  Post Brady, the Patriots have been 27-34, .443 winning percentage.   Throughout his time as coach/personnel manager, he’s made some really head scratching moves. 
 

As an additional note, his head coaching stats prior to TB are almost identical, 44-55, 0.458 winning percentage.

if BB comes here, everyone better hope he brings along a TB12 type qb.  He’s not got a track record of drafting or developing one either…..

I couldn’t agree more. If he’s head coach and GM is see things getting worse.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
