my guess on that is.... Tepper hires people. Often bad people. He is nosey. He is hard. I think he wants final thumbs up or down on select things. But he largely lets bad people do their job....until he fires them. I do think he was the tie breaker on Bryce. and I think Bryce Young was largely a Carolina GM decision. Fitterer, Morgan and their team. That's how we got him. Tepper sided with their argument over Team Frank. I think Tepper gave Canales the thumbs up to part last season with Bryce. Then I think they all sort of got blinded that he could be fixed and gave it a go this year.....after this mistake of allowing the return from the dead and miracle. I don't buy this unique only to Bryce argument that Tepper is tripling down on something that doesn't work. That's not the Tepper way at all. -
Absent proof that he absolutely concurred 100% with his superior, there is nothing that can change my opinion. Also, I would appreciate it if you would not lay the motivation for that opinion on wanting Morgan to succeed because he is an ex Panther. I do want hi. To succeed because of that and just because he is the GM of my favorite team, but I have enough independent thinking ability to separate my feelings from what I see as reason. I said many times before Morgan ever made GM or before Bryce was chosen that I could not believe and ex player could endorse that decision. I was speaking of Reich but also a MLB? Really? I feel like any ex high level defensive guy would be salivating at the prospect of facing a Bryce in a game. Whether an ex Panther, a Giant, a Buc, whatever jersey they wore. -
Years ago there use to be a website called Cold Hard Football Facts.com. I used to hang out there to read the articles and their interpretation of the football data. After the midseason point, when teams had generated enough data to set trends, these guys could predict the winner of game 75% of the time using nothing but statistical data. They said the single most important piece of data for passing efficiency is Yards per attempt. "I think" they said any team at 7.0 yds/attempt or higher would usually be among the top 10 teams in the NFL year in and year out if even if they only had an average defense. The lower the number, the least successful the team. https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/team/_/view/offense/stat/passing/table/passing/sort/yardsPerPassAttempt/dir/desc If you toggle the column and arrange it from best to worst the data clearly proves their point. Nearly every team above 7.0 this season (16 in all) has a strong chance of making the playoffs with the possible exceptions of Washington and Dallas. Washington has been decimated by injuries this year and Dak's excellent season is being overlooked because the Cowboy defense can't stop anyone in 2025. The teams below 7.0 are clearly the tier 2 and tier 3 teams in the NFL with the exception of Denver which is currently sitting atop the AFC West at 8-2.
