For real it’s getting ridiculous. Has Tepper shown himself to be a good owner? No, but his failings as an owner are tied to him hiring the wrong guys. He hires the right guys and that pretty much solves all the issues.
Also, especially when you look at other situations around the league where you have cheap owners holding onto shitty HCs because of the money (looking at you Spanos) it’s nice that Tepper isn’t one of those guys.
I mean even in Brady’s era there were still only a handful of QBs who had that type of mastery over the offense.
Also hasn’t the NFL emulated college football? It seems every trend that’s been popular in the NFL was used in college first.
The thing is “field general” is something that comes with experience. Right now the NFL QB landscape heavily skews young. Notice how out of the guys Brady mentioned, Mahomes is the only guy who hasn’t been in the NFL for over a decade. Of course, guys like Rodgers and Stafford are magical pre-snap because they’ve pretty much seen everything.
