Just a Thought.

 Since nothing has come about about why Gettlemen was released by Carolina, I tend to think if there was something negative it would have come to light already or addressed in some way by Gettlemen himself in an interview.  I am starting to think that that Gettlemen wanted out.  He may have knew what was going to eventually go down with Mr Richardson, and that with selling the team, new management was on the way.  He may have had inside knowledge that the GM position in NY was going to become available.  Obviously GM of the Giants is Gettlemens dream job.  Between mutual respect for each other it was decided that its in the best interest for both parties to desolve the relationship early rather than latter.

Yeah I'm with @LinvilleGorge. There's no way anyone could have known the Giants would deal with the kind of injuries they have and be as terrible as theyve been. Especially not before training camp even started. Gentleman was fired for reasons yet unknown, and it just so happened that the only other NFL job he would have accepted came available this year. It worked out really well for Gman and the Gmen. Not so much for the Panthers

    • Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.
    • I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.  
    • Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
