Again, no. What's you're suggesting is just dumb, regardless of who it's aimed at, and not just in terms of football. Why, under any circumstance, would you fire someone you believe is good at their job just because they were associated with someone who's bad? That's just goofy.

A few others probably said the same thing.

I suppose this would be considered the one week notice...
-
Here's an unusual story...
-
He's mentioned a couple of times in the practice squad threads along with a highlight reel or two posted.

Yeah sorry, but this idea that coaches and GMs should be fired together is probably one of the silliest I've seen. Strategy like that would mean essentially rebuilding entire front offices and coaching staffs every few years. That kind of organizational instability even older Al Davis's Raiders would look down on. To top it all off, while decrying David Tepper as an owner, you are at the same time suggesting that he should be in charge of reorganizing the entire team structure every time somebody gets fired. I hope this is one of the times you're bullsh-tting because this is some of the dumbest takes I've seen around here in a while.

Out of curiosity, anyone else see this?

Taylor wasn't anything special. Maybe he'll be better there but I'm not necessarily expecting it.
-
To be honest, I'm not sure anything much is gonna come from this lawsuit outside of the knowledge that Bill Bidwiill is a sh-tty owner. (not like we didn't already knew that)

I'll accept responsibility for marrying a Cowboy fan. I maintain however thatI did nothing to deserve a traitorous parakeet
-
Nah, I got a room with someone much cuter Granted, after the two week notice thing I may not be here for long
-
Yeah...not at all how it works in the real world. Throw in too that there are plenty of situations where one guy is better at his role than the other. What you're advocating is the proverbial throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Under your logic, the Eagles should have fired Howie Roseman about three coaches ago. Yet during that span they've been to the Super Bowl twice. Guess it's a good thing they don't listen to you

True Story: We have a one year old parakeet that throws an unholy fit every time a Panthers game comes on. When the Cowboys play though, she sits contentedly on Lady Cowboy Fan and watches. I wish I was making this up 🫥
-
Gonna try this out. Wish me luck
-
Just not ours... Taylor will now be playing for the world champs.

Trade: Panthers Acquire Ihmir Smith-Marsette from Chiefs
Mr. Scot replied to Bluetooth's topic in Carolina Panthers
Bad as that was, Olsen still came off better than Christian Kirksey. -
Pretty much... And again, that's how it works. That's why I've always said you have to evaluate tandems and braintrusts rather than just individuals. In football, that's true of GMs and head coaches, quarterbacks and receivers, guards and tackles, etc. etc. If you want a Panthers example, just compare Rivera / Gettleman and Rivera / Hurney.

Actually, it doesn't work like that at all. Two people don't have to be hired together to be in sync. Neither does being hired together guarantee that they will be. Nor does anything about those circumstances prevent an owner from playing one guy against another, or choosing to blame one and absolve the other. Everything you're talking about here is personality driven. And no employment arrangement, arrival circumstance or even prior connection can guarantee harmony or prevent conflict. if you doubt that, ask Jimmy Johnson. The good news for us though is that Reich and Fitterer have by all accounts very similar personalities and approaches that help them work and play well together. Frankly, the notion that two people have to be hired at the same time in order to be harmonious sounds kinda silly.

I sure as hell hope not

I could try, but given that you actually think your gut can you give you a more reliable idea of what's "really happening" than reports from actual coverage, I doubt you'd listen to it anyway (making up your own narrative is always easier than getting the actual facts of course, but hey...) Suffice it to say Reich isn't necessarily looking to throw anybody and everybody under the bus if things go wrong. He prefers a collaborative approach. (hence the numerous "diversity of thought" quotes you might have seen if you paid attention to such things) Fitterer operates the same way, i.e. the way they did it in Seattle. Both he and Reich have expressed such things several times. I get that you wanted (and apparently still want) to dump Fitterer regardless of whether facts support it or not, but it doesn't look like the team agrees. Guess you'll just have to hope he fails, given that you'll wind up looking like a total dumbsh-t if he doesn't

Daryl Worley still around too, apparently
