And KB had 475.  So what? It’s one player. DG was responsible for every player including Samuel. Even Gano and Butker. That’s plentyOf reasons for full credit. 
 

   Now try giving me ONE reason to give Hurney credit? Anything? Typical.         

 

 

 

 

Who selected the 53?

Knowing Gettleman’s history of reckless behavior, who knows?

WTF is wrong with you? WTF are you even talking about? Just one thing? You started this. Say anything intelligent. Or coherent? How hard is it? Why is it always me giving multiple examples, and you spending pages avoiding questions about what you brought up. 
 

  If you be really good, I might put you ignore. You have to be proud of that one. LOL

Exactly.

Here's the logic they are missing --- none of us really know Hurndog's true capabilities as a GM.

How is it we don't know Hurndog's true capabilities? 

Because The Big Cat never let Marty do the job without interfering.

Marty:  "Jerry, this is how I think we should proceed/draft/trade/offer  contract, etc..."

Jerry:  "That's nice Marty, here's what we're going to do [pick your blunder], now go do it."

Here's the objectivity they are missing --- Marty must be a LOT more capable of executing the GM responsibilities than any of us (myself included) ever thought.

How do we know this to be true?

Because 17 months after taking control of the team Mr. David Tepper still employs the Hurndog.

It really is that simple.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Tepper officially took over the Panthers on July 9, 2018.  The team was 2-weeks away from opening camp and the timing dictated the Panthers roll into camp and the 2018 season pretty much as constructed on both the player & executive fronts.

At that point in time I believed Hurney would babysit the GM position through the 2018 season and then be gone as soon as the clock ticked 0:00 in game-16. 

Rowboat had just signed a ridiculous contract extension The Big Cat gifted him on the way out the door and I figured that combined with his track record as 2-time NFLCOY, etc...would spur Tepper to let the Rower continue into 2019 no matter how 2018 went.

To my surprise (and I must admit, chagrin) both were retained going into 2019.

I started to think about....why?  There must be a logical explanation?  Mr. David Tepper specializes in logical decisions, good ones.

There are 2 primary reasons Mr. David Tepper is now worth $11B++...

1.  Superior information.

2.  Superior intellect and decision making ability.

A deadly combination that is...

In evaluating this Hurndog scenario there are 2 certainties:

1.  Tepper's information is far superior to mine.   (even though I do have Hurndog's direct phone # :shades:)

2.  Tepper is way smarter than me and a much more capable decision maker than I am.

So, how is it that Hurndog remains in Big Tepp's employ?

There's only one-single explanation...

...Big Tepp sat Hurndog down and said "walk me through your decision making process" on hundreds if not thousands of football related decisions going all the way back to his first NFL related job as the Redskins PR guy 30 years ago...

...AND...

...Big Tepp liked what he heard.

People, DON'T FORGET....Hurndog was never given the leeway to make the calls as he saw fit --- The Big Cat was micromanaging to the Nth degree.  I'm sure this was exposed in the hours and hours and hours of conversation Tepper had with Hurndog.

It was the same with Gettleman --- look no further than Brenton Bersin for a graphic example of The Big Cat telling the GM how he was going to proceed.

There-in lay the logical & objective explanation for how and why Hurndog still has the job.

Will be interested to see how the "I'm smarter than Tepper" crowd reacts....LOL.

Bingo

And as always, the” I’m a better person/fan so what I say matters” conclusion. 
 

   What’s my agenda? Put it out there. We’ll see who the hypocrite is. I’ll post whatever is needed to show otherwise. Then we can go thru yours and see how critical you’ve been in the past. I’m game. If my agenda is so obvious, this should be a layup for you. So where do we start? 

I start by going to the star wars movie in 3D at 5 to distracr myself from the extreme disappointment of the season. Then I don't get into an argument with you since it always gets negative and personal for you and frankly I am done with you for now. Maybe later but not now. Happy New year
