It’s currently an impossible situation but I also think you throw money at Colbert.  Tepper has that relationship and the money, not much else right now.

He's been trying to wing it himself while asking for advice from his NFL contacts. It blows my mind how he seemingly is oblivious to the reality that his NFL contacts have zero incentive to helping him succeed. He needs to throw a fat ass check to one of them and tell him to build me a football organization that I can be proud of and then leave him the fug alone and give him a chance to do it without constantly looking over his shoulder and wanting weekly meetings. Just let them do their damn job.

Allen has just done too much of that poo this year. If he was a young guy still getting his legs under him in the NFL that's one thing but he's a 6th year starter at this point. He shouldn't be making so many of these WTF throws at this point in his career.

It makes you wonder if he’s reached his ceiling.

I completely agree that Tepper’s only advantages right now are his checkbook and his (few) trusted NFL contacts.  

If you can throw money at the problem, hire a PROVEN TRUSTED EXPERT and stay away.  The Steelers front office seems to be just that.  

That’s what I’d do if I owned this NFL franchise and 21 billion dollars.

Allen has been overhyped since that shootout game with Mahomes. NFL tried to put him on the same level as Mahomes when he never was. Great talent, but I wouldn't bet on him winning a SB anytime soon. He's like Farve with his decision making.

Maybe. The guy has great talent. Closer to prime Cam physically than anyone I thought I'd see for a long time. But I don't know how you cut out the WTF throws and keep the magic. Mahomes is about the only guy who has figured out how to consistently roll the dice while keeping turnover fairly low and even he's starting to throw the picks this year.

The best organization generally have the least involved ownership on the football side of the house.

I would be interested in Allen’s play 3 years down the road when Dorsey (the guy who coached Cam) isn’t there.

I still find it comical that Jerry Jones is the:

Owner

General Manager

President of Football Operations

…of the Dallas Cowboys.  And then his three kids have multiple Executive positions with the team.  

Steven Jones is COO, Executive VP, and Director of Pro Personnel.

Huh?  How do they all have three positions?  His other two kids are VP’s with other executive titles as well.

Talk about meddling.  Let’s not do this.

I mean against the panthers…we play the NFC east next year and have Dallas at home and current we play 4th place AFC North in Charlotte.

WTF? This team can't even win 5 games and you're worried about this next year? The Bengals are a likable team too. fug the Steelers

    • Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.          
    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
