He says its his model of doing things.  thats telling, it was totally unnecessary

The model isn't broken, it's who made the call for it to happen.  Did Fetterer do this on his own or did Rhule say make it happen?  HCs don't draw up contracts.  Again, who was the point man in saying: 'lock Robbie up before he hits FA after the season?'  Was it Rhule or was it Fitterer? I will eat crow if you can prove that Fitts did this largely on his own and Rhule wasn't the driving force behind Robbie staying in Carolina.

Anybody thinking coaches aren't at least 50% culpable for that outburst has probably never played WR or RB. That ish was not okay. I probably would have lost my ish too. He just shouldn't have kept going at him. Say your peace so they know how you feel, then bust your tail to make a play somehow. 

This is about the only sensible post in this thread.

Are you saying he deserved the ext?  Not following here.  The model, as according to Fitt was to get ahead of him becoming a free agent with the ext even when he had a season left.  Thats not smart in regards to this jackass.  Its probably not smart even to do before the season for a guy you actually like.   We obviously had the same philosophy with Cmac and you know how that went.

 

If rhule said to sign him (which I agree with you he did) then fitt is a gm cuck for not pushing back if he didnt think it was necessary.   And like I said he better have some receipts of that given the RA past 2 years of play and his behavior this season.

In short there was absolutely no reason to add money and years to his deal.  And that is without even acknowledging the elephant in the room of Terrace Marshall.  Who we drafted in the 2nd who we apparently had a first round grade on him.  Signing robbie to an extension, drafting marshall so high and knowing we had to sign moore (which he talks about in the video) is not good roster management

Rhule had 100% of roster control at this point.  Fitts could have pushed back, but who is going to win that argument?  Now, I will agree the extension was bloated.  The years wasn't necessarily the problem (2 more years), but the money was too much. 

Marshall was a rookie.  Unless you have a high first round pick at WR, you don't pencil them in as starters.  As shown, Marshall was always going to be a project.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.
