Yeah, this news falls in the category of "OK, OK, now that that's outta the way, let's get down to business" kind of news. If it turned out any different, a portion of the fanbase would likely have rioted.
According to this article/podcast, he had his best practice yet today. He's also already talking trash to the defense, picking out Shaq specifically because, "You don’t go for the weak links. You go straight for the head."
Baker Mayfield has his best Panthers practice yet
It should definitely be interesting. Baker is an upgrade, and with an upgraded o-line (hopefully with a healthy CMC) they could see a considerable success bump. I'll definitely be more interested in watching them this coming season than I was last season.
Right. I think Tepper is certainly capable of seeing past the nose on his face, and much farther. Also, let's all keep in mind how many young players are on the defense. I'm not sure if it's a talent issue or development issue (which, given the right coaching, will correct itself). I'm certainly not surprised by the putrid performance given the black hole left by Luke's retirement and the young secondary.
Jim Harbaugh? He seems to know what to do with a QB like Cam, and Cam is light years better than the one he once coached in the pros. That 49ers defense was pretty nasty, too, under him.
