Mr. Scot

If you read what Tepper said as meaning Fitterer is in danger, you're not "reading between", you're "reading in".

Understood. Doesn't make it make sense, though.

Yet people think this year will be different...

That’s the college coach in him. At that level the head coach is basically a god who controls everything. trying to do that at the pro level is ridiculous.

Wilks got fired in Arizona largely because they’re a sh-tty organization.

It’s in his best interest to keep it sounding like a viable option…even if it really isn’t.

Wilks fired him.

If we were going after a QB from somewhere else, I’d vote for Cooper Rush.

The quote in context… That doesn’t imply anything negative, especially within the context of his quotes about how good he thinks the roster is. (unless you think he’s crediting the improvement of the roster “over the past few years” to Rhule)

Wilks is definitely not “trash”.

Yeah, he was very complimentary of the roster, even mentioning that it’s “improved over the past few years”. Not sure where people are getting any Fitterer hate out of that presser.

Tepper stated that in the future he wants to have more of a balance between the head coach and the GM. Pretty clear he gets that giving Rhule full control was a mistake.

Quote from near the end: "There are a lot of good areas of strength on this roster right now, and I think that they're better than they were a few years ago, but we have to put it together and...we have to get over the hump." Kinda doubt he's crediting Matt Rhule for that

Didn't hear that at all... He did mention they can only use the resources that they had, and that they had the same resources as everyone else. When asked about the roster he was pretty positive, mentioning specifically that he thinks they have the best offensive line they've had in a while and that he didn't see a need for a full rebuild. When asked about Fitterer directly he said, "Scott is the GM" and left it at that. I didn't really get any sense that Fitterer, Morgan or anyone else on the front office side is in any danger.

What I heard after rewinding... "Umm...look I think that there's some things (garbled) in the process in general, as far as consultants and such like that in that...in that search...but again it's premature to ask that question so..." Probably listened to that about 30 times or more but couldn't get a read on exactly what he was saying.

Tomorrow

I wasn't real clear what he said there. I'll have to go back and listen again.

I'd say that's out of respect for Wilks.

Intended to but had to step away for a few minutes. I see someone else now has. Same

Way too many red flags...

If they're let go, that won't be the reason. That said, I wouldn't expect many of those guys to be retained by the next staff.

He's not really qualified for that job. (seems to be a theme under Rhule)

WFNZ and the Panthers YouTube channel are...

I don't see anything special in any of those guys, honestly. There are guys who might be worth retaining from the current staff, but these guys aren't among them.

Not really a fan either but..
