Who does Fitterer report to?

EDIT:  Why are you afraid to answer this question?

I'm not interested in this discussion, dude. Nobody is, and it doesn't mean what you think it means anyway.

Let it go. All you're doing is getting yourself made fun of.

Nonsense, pal.  Your multiple posts indicate otherwise. 

The truth is you know the Appaloosa Model is squarely in place and it makes you entirely uncomfortable...LOL.

Org Chart:

                               TEPPER

                     RHULE <    > FITTERER

                          EVERYONE ELSE

Collaboration amongst the top-3....Tepper has the veto.

Again...oy 🙄

Here's the problem, kid. Everything that you've predicted would happen based on your self declared knowledge of how things run...has been completely wrong.

"Marty Hurney will be with the Panthers organization for years to come" you said. He was fired before the season was even over.

"The Panthers will not hire a traditional GM. David Tepper will be the one making the decisions." Wrong again. We hired a GM with a traditional scouting background, after which Tepper stated that he doesn't have the skill to do talent evaluation and he's not going to try.

"David Tepper isn't going to defer to anybody." Strike three...or four...or... something, because the GM hire ended up being the kind of guy Matt Rhule wanted, not any of the ones that Tepper suggested.

"The Panthers are going to hire an analytics guy as their GM." Again, no. None of the analytics guys even made it to the second round of interviews.

"Of the remaining candidates, Tepper will choose the one who's most involved in analytics." As mentioned above, Scott Fitterer's resumé is all pure scouting. He's acknowledged his prior team's use of analytics but admits he's not that familiar with it.

"Tepper will hire Monti Ossenfort because he values intelligence and Ossenfort has two degrees." you were still predicting this even after Fitterer had already been hired.

One more time...oy 🙄

So again, like I've tried to advise you to do before, stop trying to make yourself out to be a big deal and just be part of the discussion like the rest of us.

Believe it or not, you'll be happier.

Does he?

Can you get @Mr. Scot to confirm that?

Probably not, because Scot appears to be smarter than I am right now and is wisely avoiding this nonsense.

Actually he's into it up to his waist...

...but true to form he's devoid of intellect and completely unwilling and unable to get on the record with a declaration of any kind...

...cut, paste, rinse, repeat...haha.

I'm actually trying to help him out, but I doubt he sees that.

He's latched on to this idea that the Panthers have some kind of unique structure never before seen in the NFL. They don't. It's no different than what the Seahawks have been using pretty much since Pete Carroll got there. And heck, it wasn't a new thing back then either. It's actually been around since I can remember paying attention to those things.

But again, he's stuck on the idea that it's new. Also believes that he and I are debating (probably thinks he's winning too) so he keeps spamming the same thing into every topic thinking he's going to draw me into a further discussion about it.

I'm not interested. Neither is anyone else, really. There's not much use talking about it because he's got it in his head that he knows something other people don't, and because that makes him feel good he refuses to consider otherwise.

So...yeah 😕

Basically, this is how he got one of his previous IDs banned. He annoyed people with that behavior to the point they started complaining about him. And he's doing the same thing with this one.

I've tried to tell him repeatedly, just like I did with his old screen name, that he should stop this crap and just be part of the discussion, but...well, you get it.

My guess: He'll probably respond to this post with more of the same.

In NFL media news, Chris Wesseling of NFL.com and the Around the NFL podcast passed away this weekend from his second fight against cancer. 

I've listened to the Around the NFL podcast for 6 years. Chris seemed like a genuinely good guy with a brilliant football mind and there has been an outpouring of tributes from sports media and some NFL players on social media.

It's really sad. Chris just got married a couple of years ago and his wife just had their baby last year.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
