Looks like we get to keep Ejiro Evero!

I mean, I think the common sense approach is a clean start....if you are coming off a reported Game of Thrones atmosphere in house.  We are keeping some big chunks in the front office and coaching intact despite the mess that was going on in Carolina. 

but I mean, his job is to look for poo and get you to listen.  I don't argue that. 

I see your perspective, and argue we kept the best parts.  Sure, they could have cleaned house.   I happen have a lot of respect for Evero. Would love what he could do with a healthy defense. 

Dan Morgan has always had my respect. Since his retirement from a player, he has spent 14 years on winning franchises, earning his way up.  He has earned his opportunity to be a GM.  I'm not ashamed or afraid to see how he leads us. I absolutely believe he is the right man to help instill toughness and accountability back into this team.

maybe we did keep the best parts.   Maybe we kept some messy parts in that process.  All a guess.  Clean slate removes the guess work. 

I like Dan.  I still feel there could be a lot of similarities to the logic applied when we kept Fitterer after firing Rhule.  Well, all the bad was Rhule.  Not Fitterer.  Now, it's all the bad was Fitterer.....Morgan surely couldn't of been behind any of the 1000 bad moves while he was the assistant GM. 

A lot of the right stuff is being said.  But that's always the case. 

team has to earn my optimism at this point.  you can only be duped so many times in a row.

Keep in mind, even with a "clean slate"we wouldn't know what we'd be getting.

100% true.  We could just add more bad.  Which has healthy odds given Tepper only hires people he shouldn't to date.  I don't argue that. 

I just wish this "new era" felt like it was truly outsourced to someone else.  I know Tepper claimed to hire a consultant.....but it really feels like that was to take some heat of him and little else.   Just outsource it all at this point.  Instead we got Tepper, his wife, and Jim Caldwell making up 3/4 of the "decision makers".  So, I don't trust anything being done given that.

I understand your skepticism.  

Just knows this feels different.  

As far as Tepper is concerned, I praybhe has learned to stay out of the spotlight.

    • I've watched literally every single snap of T-Mac's career, there isn't a person on these boards who knows his game better than I do.  And I'm telling you, he is a great fit for what Bryce does well, period. You keep talking about these "get open quick WRs" as what Bryce needs, but I couldn't disagree more, because it blatantly disregards what Bryce does best. AND NO.... that's not me saying we don't need any "get open quick" type of WRs, I've long said we still needed one of those in addition to a true outside #1, but it's not the only type of WR that can be a successful pairing with Bryce. Bryce's biggest strength is his mental side of the game, he reads defenses and plays chess instead of checkers.  That type of QB doesn't need to rely on his WR's to quickly create acres of separation because their mental side of the game will mean they are going to put the ball on the WR when they create even minimal separation, as he's going to anticipate it and throw the ball before the WR has even made his cut on the route. AND THAT is where and why Bryce and T-Mac are a great pairing.  When you have a guy with T-Mac's hands and catch radius, he doesn't need 5 yards of separation to get open and have Bryce then get the ball to him.   Bryce is going to be throwing the ball before he even makes his cut, so even if all T-Mac is able to do is create 1 yard of separation, the ball is getting to him when he creates that and because of his hands and size, he's plucking that ball out of the air before the defender even has a chance to close that 1 yard, because the ball is there as soon as T-Mac creates the room and turns his head.
    • I read an article a few days ago that places like Seattle green bay and a few others are revoking tickets rights to holders that sell 100% of their tickets. That would do a lot of good league wide for bringing back some home field advantages. We aren't the only team who's stadiums get over run by visitors. It happens basically everywhere. That would go a long way to bringing ticket costs down 
    • yeah, you can basically copy and paste my thoughts from this time last year.   We are building an O more suited for Jake Delhomme than Bryce Young.  Tmac and XL sound great for the downfield gunslinger  Give them opportunities to make plays.  From what I have seen, and the scouting stuff I have read.....TMac does not project as a get open quick WR.  He is going to have to work on getting off the line at this level, getting open, etc.  Which is all good.  This you go to think people will be studs out the gate or you are hater logic just ain't what I do.   Take my XL stance last year.  I lobbied hard for him.  When we drafted him I immediately told folks to pump their breaks on the wild expectations.    If XL legitimately turned into what I think he can be.....his best setup in the league would not be paired w/ a QB like Young.  if Bryce was going to be the dude, I would have lobbied for Ladd vs XL.  I was an XL guy.   And again, I would have gone Warren/Jeanty this draft.   I would have invested in small ball talent for him to be the PG for.
