It does not matter how you feel about benching bryce, David tepper being involved in the decision is NOT a good thing. Just because he makes a singular good call does not mean he should be involved. This only makes me more concerned about our future moving forward

To take that seriously, an absolute ban on Tepper having input... you gonna have to go some. That is not the way they run teams. You're spending the big money, making a critical decision, he holds veto power at the very least.

right most owners give the blessing on major decisions. They don't initiate them and they don't involve themselves with the minutia of the team. Which Tepper is certainly still doing

That's what you pay the Team President for.

Well I would just ask, where did you learn the play by play of the deal? 

I am not aware that we are certain he instigated.

And if he approves something brought to him it is a much different scenario. Right? 

There is as much certainty that a guess can have, that they, Canales, Morgan, Tepper,  discussed contingencies prior to employment. So they had some ground rules, I would think, some 'if this, then that' discussions. Etc. 

Looks like the timeline for this contingency was moved up because Bryce was sucking so hard. 

I don't know who instigated, unless someone has something solid. 

I agree with it in any event.

If it is my team, Prez needs to speak with me about it. Even if he has rubber stamp approval negotiated in. 

Of course he speaks with the owner. That's his boss and answers to him. But the President's decision is how it's going to go. Dave has to listen and judge his performance by the results and not what he wants at that moment.

This!  Some of you are so happy Bryce is benched if Tepper made the call your fine with it. If Tepper had any say at all on this other then being told by Canales that is the problem, a very big one that will keep us in this situation for a generation.

Benching Bryce has me like .. this Tepper guy might be alright after all

Depending on how it is all playing out in the office, it could be a good sign. 

 

edit: And what the heck do you guys think you can do about it if he doesn't allow Dove Canales and Damn Morgan complete autonomy?

Which allegedly according to some, he did with Fitterer.

You can bitch and stomp your feet. I am not a fan of Tepper's either, fwiw, and that started immediately with his 'swearing in',

I can explain the hate for you, hepcat. Bryce should have been benched after the first drive of the third quarter. The fact that he wasn't, combined with Dave C's weird "Bryce is our QB" quote after the game, then benching him the next day pretty much told us that at the very least, he needed Tepper's permission to bench Bryce, at worst, Tepper made our HC coach bench Bryce. Either scenario is not how an NFL team is supposed to function, so it means that Tepp has learned nothing after 6 years. Hence the hate.

      Trade Deadline Talk

      You guys are just going to have to accept the fact that Dan Morgan is a mid GM best case scenario currently. I used to have people get very belligerent over defending Scott Fitterer too. And that's not hyperbole. People used to go to bat for that guy like he was blood related. We have a truckload invested in the OL and what do we have to show for it? The whole unit is already banged up including one of our big signings. Even without all that the group has largely taken a step back from last year in pass protection. Then you get to the QB room and there's only two conclusions you can make about Dan Morgan. Either he deliberately ignored it two years in a row on his own accord or he took orders from Tepper to do so. Either scenario says he's not fit to be an NFL GM.

      Is Canales digging his own grave?

      By strato · Posted

      Frank, ceding control of the defense in no way verifies that Tepper told Canales to bench Young.    It certainly buttresses the idea that Canales would need permission to bench him but that is as far as you can take it.    After that it is pure speculation and it doesn’t make sense.

      Uhh, okay yes that happened. I didn’t like the pick either I am a 3rd or later RB guy. Always. Actually hated the CMC pick too. Hated the Stewart pick.  No one wants to talk about trading the #39 in that draft and what he did with that.  Got #52, #155, and the Rams 2025 2nd to boot.   The 52 and 155 plus our 142 5th rounder to go up for a Brooks Everyone wants to forget about the 2025 2nd for that Rams trade  which was used to move up for Scourton.  That Rams trade down was a great deal for us.
