Does Tepper keep Fitt and let him hire his own coach?
LinvilleGorge replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
I'm talking about Fitts while poking fun at your tendency to dig in on certain stances and argue them for years even when everyone else has moved on amd accepted that yeah, that dude sucked. Listen, I liked Gettleman too and thought we screwed up firing him but hindsight clearly showed he deserved to be fired though reinstating Hurney was beyond idiotic. Like it or not, were tied to Tepper. He's the owner. He hired Fitts. That's why I'm so baffled with you acting like him hiring a GM would be so awful while defending Fitts who was hired by Tepper. You're essentially arguing against yourself. -

Did you see Matt Corral play in preseason? You sure you want Fitts wielding that card when we swing on our next franchise QB? -

He won 5 games with Hurney. He won 5 games with Fitts. He might not even manage that many again this year. Your argument makes zero sense. You say you have no trust in Tepper to put the right people in place when he's the one who put Fitts in place but you're all in on Fitts just like you were on Gettleman. If we fire him, we'll still have you defending awful moves he made years from now. -

Soooo.... what you're saying is... "He might not suck if not for Matt Rhule." -

Thanks for confirming. "He might not suck if not for Matt Rhule" is literally the entire defense. -

I'm still waiting for anyone to make an argument other than "he might not suck if not for Matt Rhule". That's the entire crux of the defense. He's been wheeling and dealing and we're fielding trash, our cap situation next year is trash, our draft capital situation is trash. How much further down a hell hole do y'all really need to watch this franchise plummet? -

Okay... You went through these same motions with Gettleman. It's alright man. Sometimes we get excited about hirings/draftings/signings and they end up sucking. It happens. You don't have to keep blindly defending them for years. -

You said you didn't want to trust Tepper with making the HC hire. Tepper hired Fitts. With the heavy input of Matt Rhule. That's reality. The rest is pure copium. -

Which part was a cop out? It's just the truth. -

Game day threads: oh noes, look at all these players sucking at teh foosball!!! Fitts threads: he's been making great moves and needs to be entrusted to hire our next coach -

How would that be different than letting Fitts do it? Tepper hired Fitts, along with heavy input from Matt fuging Rhule. -

LinvilleGorge replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
Basically the only real argument I've heard for Fitts so far is that he might not be bad if we get Rhule out of the way. Sorry, that's just not enough for me. Hell, I was all for sending his ass packing with Rhule at the end of last season. -

LinvilleGorge replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
Don't get me wrong, I think Rhule and his staff are our biggest problems by far but I haven't been blown away with Fitts' moves. I'd say better than Hurney and about on par with Gettleman. Lacks the early successes of Gettleman but also lacks the later issues driven by ego fueled dick measuring contests. -

Not to defend McAdoo, but this personnel doesn't fit his offense at all. -

The other side of that coin... Why would you risk perhaps your only shot at one of those jobs in a role where you don't actually have traditional GM powers? Flop and you may never get another chance. -

What are we basing this off of other than sheer hopium? I can't point to anything concrete but I can point to a lot of reasons to send him out the door with Rhule. -

If you don't give a GM final say on the roster then he's just a wet nurse for your college coach who has full control. No legit GM candidate is taking that offer. -

I really hope not. Send the guy you hired to be Rhule's wet nurse packing with him and get a real GM. -
Yeah. Your team is getting blown out and dominated in week two. Don't throw the rookie out there to the wolves in that situation. Just fuging dumb.
-
Wow. That was a pathetic effort from the Vikings' D. Props to Hurts but damn that was pathetic tackling.
-
Well, that puts the Titans to bed. Gonna be time to switch over to the Eagles/Vikings game after the Bills punch this one in.
-
I don't know if they want to do that to him with the way this OL is playing right now.
-
Yep, they wore the tread off of Henry's tires and Tannehill is what he is - a decent QB if he has a dominant RB to hand to behind a dominant OL. Meanwhile, that once dominant OL looks like trash. Just seems like their window has closed. Everything has to align perfectly if you don't have that dude at QB.

I don't think anyone would have.

Man, these primetime games this week have been disappointing. Just not competitive.
