Yep. The NFL should hire all new “replacement” refs and fire all the current ones. It worked so well the last time they tried that.

Hard to say with any certainty, given his situation. I thought highly of him, and the Colts, until they blew their playoff shot last year against a JAX that was going through motions. That was a complete disaster that he has to take some part of the blame. Other than that I think he could do a good job given the chance. Much better than the alternatives that were discussed.

Two of them helps. If they are good they will be hired away anyhow. Since the NFL implemented its diverse rewards policy in 2020, the San Francisco 49ers have been front-runners. The Niners were awarded five compensation draft picks in the third round for developing Martin Mayhew, Robert Saleh and Mike McDaniel. They’ll receive two more for Ran Carthon and another if DeMeco Ryans becomes a head coach this offseason. Five other teams have been awarded a total of 10 compensation picks for the rest of the league combined.

The first 3 years were, and still are, some of the best TV ever produced.

A coach has to be with an organization for two years before any comp picks are awarded for being hired by another team.

What about that round table where they decided to give Sam his 5th year option? Was Rhule even there? It was confirmed that Bridgewater was a Hurney issue by reliable sources but we have seen that was never true. What does the cap guru do? Why were either hired? Let’s make this easy. Please list all the moves that Fitt was responsible for since he got here. Or is the organization rolling with a GM with no experience running a team beyond an interim basis?

What was Fitt doing? Hiding in the closet, peeking through the door at Rhule handling his business. Who gave him the 19M so they could “treat him like a rookie”?

Yet the current GM gave up a 2nd and more, plus 19M guaranteed, to a QB who had proven he sucked in every way possible.

Yep. He’s a bust.

We know how much you love Pickett, so I just take it FWIW.

I’d say 3rd is even debatable. He sure ain’t better than Lamar. And Pickett looked every bit as good, or better by the end of year.

Who needs a search button? I didn’t make any claim except your are a complete homer. Every post is my proof. You said you had many time’s documented, somewhere, so just find a couple. We all know who you are, as well… what do I call you calling me, or anyone else, who doesn’t join in the echo chamber all the time, as people that don’t understand anything? Or just trolls? I call out your complete BS. Just like we did here once again. But I’m so glad you like you.

Any of them “documented” on here? The last 5 years? Feel free to show me. The rest is just a long winding road leading to the same BS to deflect away from you calling some out for “only reading on here” when you can’t produce anything at all to back up your rambling

But it wasn’t. How many different sites even have Panthers info like that? And most times people assume you’re talking out your ass because….. you are on the Mt. Rushmore of “homers” for the team and have a habit of just stating things that aren’t true. And chastising anyone who dare say a team that is a top 10 draft regular participant might actually be wrong some(or most) times.

Then post what you have read from credible sources. Seems like that would clear things up pretty quick. Is there some reason you can’t post these statements you have read elsewhere?

I’m well aware of the year it was. Just as Locker or any player knew that top pick pay was a huge issue in the CBA. He made a mistake. Even today it would be a 20M drop. You don’t take 5M to put 40M at risk. Who stayed and benefitted from it?

He was also projected to go 1-2 in 2010 with Bradford. Bradford got 6yrs/78M in 2010. Locker got 4 yr/12M in 2011 Add in players like Matt Barkley and Ryan Mallet who went from top 5 to 3-4th rounders and coming back when you’re already as high as you will get is ignorant.

Why would we have no idea what obstacles? Every move is public. They traded Minkah after week one but that was as much to do with way he was being used. He was there for 59-10. Tunsil and Tannehill were before season. Kenyon Drake got traded at deadline. What other moves did they put in his way? So a team that went winless tried to win MORE than a team that won 5 games while trying to lose them all. Just because you “feel” that way. And I saw that TB team as well. There was a reason John McKay wanted them “executed”. And how is a team that won 5 games your one and only example of this “trying to lose every week” theory.

I’m talking about ITT. First they failed because they didn’t get 1st pick. Then it was they didn’t get Burrow. Then when informed they didn’t even know who Burrow was, it didn’t matter. Hard to keep up. And I never said organizations don’t do it. I gave examples. But it stops at the roster and talent provided. If the HC is trying to win, and the players are as usual, who is trying to”tank” on a weekly basis? And there was no talk of investigating anyone. Did the league investigate the Browns in 2017 when they proudly did it and put a QB out there who would take care of it. If Flores wasn’t involved, what happened between week 1 and 5. Did Flores try to lose the first 4 games. Or did a very young team get better? Trying to lose and still winning 5 with a depleted roster is impressive

Since your “idea” of tanking seems to change by the post, let’s just focus on this statement. Who was trying to lose for the Dolphins? What coaches/players lose games on purpose? It sure wasn’t Flores/Fitzpatrick on those teams. The only “tanking” there is, is the purging the cap and not spending any future assets on a current year. And giving a HC Deshone Kizer(CLE 2017) or the Painter,Orlovsky, and ghost of Kerry Collins(Colts 2011 after Manning got hurt) is as tanking as a team can do. And even those Colts won 2 of their last 3 games. Front offices rebuild. Coaches/players try to win every game with the resources given. Tanking is a vague term that means whatever someone wants it to support a narrative. Ask Doug Pederson what even the hint of trying to lose gets you.

When they went down that path by trading Tunsil, Burrow was a late round flyer at best. His 2019 season hadn’t even started yet. And if they wanted to lose every game they wouldn’t have had Ryan Fitzpatrick at QB. And the Panthers wasted 80M+ in 2020 just to win a couple games. That is not clearing up cap space. It’s wasting it.

He’s not coming back. He has a 40M guaranteed coming with 25M coming as soon as he signs. Plus his stock will never be higher after the GA game. All he can do is hurt his stock and lose money by staying.

I’m inventing? You’re the one who claimed the system was unfair to certain teams. Then it was cheap owners. On to the “accounting trick”. Now the deflection of its my fault you were wrong. Just finish the cycle and call me a troll because of me being a Steelers fan. That’s the protocol when folks run out evidence that could prove their point I’ll put my track record with the cap and how it works to the test anytime.
