Gettleman would have been fired

Yeah. I wish we would have 'matched the offer' or soemthing and went ahead and made the move. I do know you have to interview multiple people and there is that minority rule. I dont know all the rules, but when the Bills made the offer, there wasn't anything we could really do.

I wish they could have gotten ahead of everything when Danny Morrison stepped down.  I wish I had connections to know what all is really going on.

Rivera mentioned 'I have nothing to lose' on the 'Win it All' motto for this year. So, I am pretty sure the coaching staff is on notice unless this is just a spectacular year.

I think JR made a legitimate effort to take a step back and let Gettleman truly run the team, but ultimately he just couldn't do it.

And it just so happened that we had our best stretch in our franchise and currently have our deepest team too. Back to mediocrity we go after this year.

And you know this how? Opinion? Speculation?

Because Buffalo gave Jerry a gift. If Gettleman had been fired, and Beane not promoted, there would have been a million questions. If Gettleman was really on the hot seat, Beane would never have been allowed to leave. But once the heir to the throne was gone, the throne was vacated, and the answer we got was "Gotta put somebody in there, might as well get something familiar".

Just gotta pray we can move forward.

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
