Look, there's plenty of things to have an issue with Tepper about, but the head coaching issue is not it. He gave Rivera an extra season that he didn't deserve as a second chance. Rivera didn't work out, so we rightfully cut bait. Then, Tepper put his money where his mouth is and signed the hottest head coach candidate in the 2020 offseason. It was a widely praised move. We spent a ton of money for it. Then even though he should've been fired after year 2, Tepper gave Rhule 1 more year to show ANY improvement, and when he didn't, we rightfully cut bait again. Then, Tepper, after learning his lesson about an all-rookie coach squad, again put his money where his mouth is and put together a coaching staff absolutely soaked in experience and success. And when that failed hard, and we saw no chance of improvement at all, we rightfully cut bait again

One thing you CANNOT say about Tepper is that he has 0 interest in getting the right coach, because he's spending a ton of money and giving people more chances than they deserve

Good points, David Tepper … errr, random Reddit guy. I think I’ll reevaluate my negative opinion of him.

Fans and owners love blaming coaches, but the most successful franchises keep people around.
