Not because of anything he is doing but because of what everyone else hasn't done.

I wasnt willing to do this before, but this is pathetic, embarrassing, and shameful. To have an entire front office turn their back on your franchise QB and put him in this position is disgraceful.

He needs to sit to be protected.

In saying that, despite my feelings following many of the offseason moves Gettleman made, I still reserved final judgment because I felt the cap did greatly affect what we did. But that was then... The cap has nothing to do with him being complicit in having our franchise QB destroyed. He has literally done nothing but contribute to his demise. He has made no moves after seeing this week in and week out. Even after our QB broke his ribs and was coming off ankle surgery... He has still sat on his hands.

People can say you aren't going to find anything better out there right now, but just watch this team and try to say that with a straight face. It is arguable that half of our starting OL shouldn't even be on an NFL roster. Our WR corps is a joke. And this is what we surrounded our franchise QB with...

I didn't think it was fair even with our horrible offseason to talk about Gettleman's job security before... After watching our team do nothing for yet another week and contribute to the destruction of our franchise QB, I now think he is fair game as well. Everything that could've been done wrong, was done wrong. And once you k of you were wrong, you have to correct it. Rivera hasn't done that, Gettleman hasn't done that, and JR never does that.

Enough is enough...

That last throw he had to step up immediately to avoid getting crushed again and then launches a pass, likely underground because of an injury, but the worst part that is indicative of this shitty ass team that he is surrounded by? Cotchery, great veteran leader, mentor, and team-building, isn't even looking for the ball. LOL... JUST LOL...

this isn't about this week, it's about the rest of the season and Cam's career... Sit him to protect him.

Wide open? What are you watching? No one is ever wide open. Every defender is on the wr s hip.

The throw to Cotchery that went out of bounds? Olsen wide open in the end zone, Stewart wide open in the flat.

Olsen even let the sideline hear it when he went back.

I said it in the gameday thread. Cam has become shell shocked thanks to our inability of getting him a line ever since we drafted him. He can't even trust the line when he has time to throw which causes bad throws and bad decisions. The cap isn't even an excuse for DG. He decided to use 13 mil to tag a luxury at DE instead of getting Cam help. He decided to go into the season as it. And is still doing so. The coaches are incompetent. Shula should've been fired weeks ago. Rivera has reverted to the 2012 Rivera and first 3 games of last year before his job was on the line. The whole coaching staff needs to go. The sooner the better. DG has a lot of work to do this offseason like he should've done last. He has to prove himself to be a competent GM.

I think this season is on Gettleman.  He's done next to nothing to help his franchise QB, and the lack of talent on the OL is obvious.  A 3 man rush is consistently getting to a mobile QB, how does that happen?  And I know it's a dead horse, but could you imagine Benjamin being doubled like this if Smitty was on the roster?  

 

People like to bash Hurney because of the contracts, but even in the lame duck year I can't remember ever being this outclassed.  And we have more talent now, but there's nothing on the line.  It's a more painful team to watch than any I can remember.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I mean, but there is ample evidence that exists currently in the NFL and historically that if you have a talented or moderately talented team then one of the biggest upgrades you can make is at QB. It yields the biggest returns. I don't think even Prime Greg Olsen is going to make Bryce suddenly look like a stud QB. We have invested immense amounts of money on the OL and tremendous amounts of draft resources on WR's. And have added an additional extremely capable RB. At some point, the main problem is Bryce. We are at that point.  That being said, we don't need to go "Full Bryce" again and sell the farm to upgrade at QB. Be intelligent and patient. Try to get better by whatever means become available WHILE continuing to make the roster better. At the bare minimum, you slowly build an upper half of the NFL talented roster that is at least a potential draw for some free agent QB's. IMO, Bryce is clearly not the answer. I don't think anyone in our organization thinks that way but if they do, it's not the end of the world. Throw as many reasonable darts as you can through free agency and the draft until either you get a bullseye or a top 10-15 option becomes available in free agency.

      I think the best way to make Bryce better is to make everyone around him better.  This is why I advocate for a stud (top 5, eventually) TE.  I mean, when we have been a good franchise, we have had a stud TE (Walls, Olsen) and ILB (Beason, Mills, Morgan, Luke, etc) so it is in our DNA.  Expect us to address these areas this year.  (An Olsen or Walls would help Bryce a lot).  In terms of productivity, I think we are going to work with XL for one more season and ride the TMac / Coker momentum.  Where else could we find a position to improve productivity?  TE.  A position that caters to Bryce's style and shortcomings, a stud TE gives him another weapon he has not had. The Panthers run a lot of 2-TE sets (I have seen 3) and they have a blocker (Tremble) who is great in the run game, a balanced TE (Evans), and Sanders is supposed to be the pass-catching TE. He had 340 yards last season and he has about 170 this year.  If we are going to play around with XL for another season, it only makes up to add to Bryce's weapons in a way that does not put XL on the bench, basically ending his development. It makes sense to bring in a pass-catching dawg.  The way the offense is designed, I see carrying 4, but its not ideal. Having said that, I mentioned Oregon's Sadiq in another thread, but I am starting to warm up to Vanderbilt's Stowers and, in the Olsen/Walls mold, I kinda like Endries from Texas.  Of course, Stowers is probably going in round 2 and Endries in 3 or later. I still say, 5 months before the draft, that I would not be surprised if we take a TE very early.
