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

WTF am looking at? 
I assume that is Irsay’s daughter the now owner but is that real?

100% real.  She wears a headset too.  You can literally find her on the sideline directly behind the coach writing her notes down.  And that’s not a onetime occurrence.  It’s the norm.

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.

Well at this point sure, there’s not much of a choice.  But I can’t imagine it’d take much to learn the stuff Bryce has been doing plus a deep shot or 2?

I'm sensing someone will go to IR and White will get elevated in a couple more games.

As far as this year goes I don’t even care.  Just as long as this Bryce Young nightmare is over.  That’s all I want for Christmas is him cut and gone.

I think it's over after this season. I don't think they will outright cut him but a trade might be worth exploring. Everything will hinge on who they are able to pick up in the offseason.

I commented on a different thread but I don’t think he’s involved at the same level. Even the media has reported it. Looking back, no wonder he was so involved with Rhule and Fitterer in the same building, I would be too. I think he backed up after 2023. Now, he probably has some type of meeting with Morgan/Canales but probably not like with Rhule, I would want to know what was going on too. I think his meetings with Rhule were probably more like a PIP meeting. You really don’t hear from him much anymore. I think if they were going to trade a certain player (Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, etc) or make a big signing they would get his “blessing” but it’s likely they have autonomy. They could probably bench Bryce and he wouldn’t veto it, he obviously didn’t before.

If you can get a 2nd or 3rd (LOL) then yeah, but really you’re better off keeping him and not picking up his option. Just bring in competition, let them beat him, and move on. 
 

On the flip side I worry about the competition that will obviously beat him, getting injured, him having a false good game or two and then getting into a mess, part of me says just get him out of here and be done.

It’s worked great while they won 7 games against the easiest schedule in the league. Now they have one of the hardest to finish out, I doubt they win 9-10 games total. Let’s the losses pile up and this is going to turn into a colossal nightmare for Steichen

If he's still here I sure hope it's not as a starter. He needs serious competition if he stays even as a backup next season.

Will Sam Howell be a free agent?
