packers actually have a good roster..bucs had a better roster than we have. we are going to stink again next season

Dude, we were going to stink next year REGARDLESS of who we hired.

Harbaugh and Vrabel aren't coming in with this roster and no first round pick and turning it around immediately.

one good think he may be able to bring from Tampa...Mike Evans.  He's a free agent next year and the Bucs have said they want to bring him back, although they make not be able to do that because of cap space.

The FA receivers offer very few options...Evans is one of the best available.  My thoughts are to sign one, draft one to go with Thielen.  And though we can wave a bunch of cash at him, I thought he wouldn't be interested in the Panthers.

Now maby he is..

It could turn out to be good, but I definitely have concerns...

- one year coordinator

- nobody else was pursuing him for a second interview that I saw

- would have only had to wait 3 days to interview one of the championship guys

- makes it seem like an impatient / panic / bidding against ourselves move

As always, I hope it works. In this case, I'm not so much down on the candidate as I am how the hiring process played out.

His offense also just orchestrated an average of 27.5ppg across two playoff games??

You can cherry pick and manipulate stats to gas light yourself all you want. 
 

it’s another lackluster, disappointing hire. You will accept this eventually.

This shows Dan Morgan might actually have a voice, given Tepper wanted Johnson. 

I think it probably shows one or more of the following

Bryce young didnt sell very well

Candidates were weary of tepper

 

Because it makes no sense to rush this and it is telling that nobody else even gave him an interview.  We likely were down quite far on the list.  He may work out and he looks good on paper but hiring now kindof raises some red flags about this franchise and tepper

Have to give this guy a chance before spazzing out over it. This hire showed me two positive things:

- We still believe in Bryce and will do what we can coaching/roster wise to help him out. 
- Tepper isn’t making as many of the calls as some think. Morgan was just praised by Cowherd for being a really smart football guy. He knew Canales from Seattle, and obviously liked his work with two retread QBs. 
 

People have to understand we were by far the least attractive destination for any candidate in this cycle. With what we are working with, It could have been a lot worse. 
 

Let’s see what Dave is made of.

God awful fire. Worse than the Matt Rhule hire. Not qualified for the job at all. Bottom half of the league offense and dead last in rushing in his only year as a coordinator. 
 

Much more qualified candidates including our last two defensive coordinators. What a punch in the face.

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
