If the team falls apart because the GM got fired, I am pretty sure we were headed to "dumpster fire" status anyway.

Firing of a GM right before the season starts shakes things up a lot. Especially when you consider that there are two important vets waiting for new contracts/extensions right now and a total newcomer is more than likely coming in to make the contract calls now. So, yeah, if the team was right on the edge of having a successful season, I don't think it's crazy to predict this pushes them to the other side a bit.

Is it any surprise that the absolute shittiest posters on this board are happy with this move? That tells you all you need to know.

Because 40-23-1, 3 playoff appearances, and an SB appearance mean nothing to trolls. This move only makes them think they are right.

This is one of the better days for this organization.

You all should be celebrating instead of looking stunned.

How long have you been a Panther's fan? Probably right at the start of the Gettlemen era. The fact of the matter is that Richardson's tastes in GM aren't ideal. His commitment is not to winning but to fostering a family atmosphere, which is great and all, but in a business that deals with the decline of aging players or guys who play below their market value, it isn't smart to re-sign them. With a long-term contract coming up for KK, KB, Olsen wants an extension, Trai Turner....

Gettleman told Big Cat that he preferred Popeye's to Bojangles.

Who cares if we return to salary cap hell and never hit on draft picks past the 1st round anymore anyway?

SMITTY CAN COME BACK!

AMIRITE?

Yep because it's Gettleman or Hurney.

No other options.

The real question is who are the GM candidates. All this crying and nobody is questioning the next move. If they some how can get Bill Cowher out of retirement to lead the FO, I might just cry RN tears.

Jerry Jones has been whispering in Richardson's ear about how great it is to be the owner and general manager.

Oh my GOD, this is going to be the funniest day in the history of this site. 90% of you worship Gettleman AND also can't tolerate any criticism of the team whatsoever. I cannot wait to read your reactions.

Running the team like a family, or the owner running the team at all, is what makes you the Dallas Cowboys of the last 20 years. 

I didn't always agree with Gettlemagic, but it seemed to be working. 

Looking forward to paying half our salary cap to Greg and TD, and finishing 3rd in the division for the next 6 years straight. 

this dude gets it

(For the record, this move does seem like horseshit. Richardson is in the wrong here and Gettleman was in the right when it came to contracts.)

You're a complete and utter moron.

This just sunk the ship. How in your pathetic mind can find this as a positive is beyond me. Unless Gettleman was killing people off the field, there was absolutely no reason to fire him.

Gettleman is a locker room cancer you pathetic dumbass the key to a good team is happy players and Gettleman wasn't making players happy
