How much influence do you think Tepper has on the day to day operations?

Sitting Bryce last year was just a pivot in the Bryce plans. They were never done with him because it's always been about him. The consensus here is that they were surprised when Dalton fell apart and Bryce looked better after DC had a chance to reset amd work with him, the thing Frank wanted. 

My guess is that it still is but DC knows he is fugged in that regard now but Tepper is still expecting things to keep going. 

Sorry for being dense. I guess you are saying the consensus is what I bolded, and that they were really done with Bryce when they benched him? 
Or the first part before that? 
 

Myself, I didn’t go for that when I saw him get the garbage time opps but I guess I have seen that from people. 
It would have been nice if the mechanical fixes took, but they obviously haven’t.

I feel like the previous years, there were many reports of him being overly involved in everything. I really haven't heard much this year, so I'm hoping that he got the memo and is taking a step back. Who knows though

If he put down the mandate of Bryce on the hiring of the coach and GM, he can step back and not involve himself in the daily details, with his influence still impacting the daily and the macro view. 
 

I agree with the guy that said people would hate me when if I were owner, because it is my way or the highway at the point I own the team.

I like to think I would listen to pros and accept their reasoning, until it proved to be flawed and then I would snatch up some of that ownership power and wield it.

I think Tepper was largely truthful on what he would do here.  He isn’t in on most things.  He hires people to do jobs. He is in on the big stuff.  Folks probably know what does and doesn’t need a thumbs up or down on.   I don’t think he is telling folks what to do exactly.  I think when things are glaringly bad…..he goes so, what about X.  And there will be talks on X.  Until X isn’t a problem.  Tepper’s biggest issue thus far IMO is he just hires bad people at the top .  

But it’s not like he is the Colts owner with a live headset on, on the sideline, behind the coach, taking notes.

No one here has any concrete idea. Conjecture and speculation only. 

I don't know why people even worry about this. He has as much or as little day to day involvement as he wants.

If I owned the team you guys would hate me because I would be involved in everything!

People worry about it because of the same huge issue that has affected everything since he was over drafted.  
QB is such an outsized influence anyway and when they keep trotting him out there hoping for a different result, people need to understand why that is happening. I guess. 

Man I expected exactly what the Saints did, but didn’t expect it to be That bad from Bryce. Things are really getting interesting.

Yep. The narrative is that they were done and then he came back. It's the most common take and I see it more than anything else. 

This year they didn't make it through a series before Dalton broke his thumb and Young was miraculously healthy the next game with Dalton not being on IR when, I belive, it's the second time he broke his throwing thumb.

What confuses me is if Tepper isn’t forcing Bryce to be the starter, why would Canales risk his own career to start a QB he didn’t pick?

Surely he knows he’s not safe in his job?

Who else knows the offense besides Bryce and Andy? White just got here and I'm sure they have him cramping the playbook as we speak but I doubt he'll be ready to take over this Sunday. I mean he really doesn't have much choice right now.

    • Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.     
    • This post was an error. Oops and sorry for the errors in the previous one. Too slow to edit.   We’ll see what they do.  
    • I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
