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.

    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way to efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
    • Man even after 5-12 seasons they are able to produce hype videos.
