Basically running an NFL franchise like an NFL fan would...

I already thought it was bad, but damn

 

 

Most of us would run it better. If an assistant coach came to me like that, I would shut it down and report it to the HC. That’s terrible culture building.

Most of us would make mistakes, but it wouldn’t be this bad. This level of bad comes from huge ego and immaturity.

Also, I'm numb to the dysfunction.

Now I just think it's hilarious.

If I didn't I'd just be sad.

There are going to be 7-8 openings at the end of the year and we are going to be the last choice for most. 

Or the "leverage" choice.

There's going to need to be some really radical changes for us to be seen as an attractive job.

What’s funny is Rhule caused the “hiring from the circle” issue with what he did with his staff…Reich swung too far the other way…If say Harbaugh, Frank Smith, etc (nfl guys) get hired just let them hire who they want because they have nfl connections as opposed to Rhule.

I thought I’d seen down times over the course of ~30 years as a Panthers fan. The Tepper regime has shown me that I knew nothing about the depths of fan despair. Tepp may kill this franchise if things don’t change.

This level of dysfunction certainly explains the horrid offense. Reich certainly needed to be kicked to the curb and Fitterer needs to be next.

...which comes from thinking you're the smartest guy in the room and nobody can challenge you.

Said previously the "talking to too many people" thing makes it seem like Tepper believes he knows what he's doing and maybe just needs occasional advice from people to confirm his thinking. This goes even further and makes it sound like he gets ideas from articles or videos he sees online.

Lord almighty

Yeah, this article doesn't help the perception of Bryce Young at all.

I was on the "bryce young is a bust" train about 3ish weeks ago and this lines up with that.  Not understanding an offense, along with his shitty mechanics(which he has always had) coupled with his slight frame and poo arm is just a recipe for starting completely over.

Similar feelings...and I was here through both 2001 and 2010.

I like Campen and Tabor both, but with stuff like this, how could a new coach feel comfortable keeping them?

Hell, how would anybody feel comfortable hiring them if this stuff is true?

So Young’s footwork is an issue and no one decided to bring this up in the pre draft process. Tepper was picking Young and doesn’t know a damn thing about footwork

Meanwhile CJ has maybe the cleanest and smoothest drop back in the league and did so in college too. 
 

Weird how something like that translates smh

Yep. Times like these make me wish I could be a bandwagon fan and switch teams but I can’t do it. I guess I’m a masochist or something.
