Scott "The Fiddler" Fitterer

If you truly believe that then we should have kept Hurney.  "Rhule is the GM" right?

The GM builds a roster of 90 players that he thinks fit what the coaching staff are asking for.  He has final say on the draft and FA.  The coach evaluates that roster and picks the 60 players he think will get the job done.  He has final say on the in season roster.

That's how it works.  This doesn't preclude massive collaborative work between the two.  It's very clear that happens.  But each has final say in certain situations, and it seems to be working out pretty well.

FYI: The guy you're debating is the latest version of our old buddy Sanjay.

And for the record, he predicted that we would keep Marty since he believed Marty was a figurehead and David Tepper was actually making the personnel decisions because that was supposedly the Appaloosa Model.

Then when Marty was fired, he said we wouldn't hire a traditional GM (wrong). Once Fitterer was hired, he again said that Tepper was still in charge of personnel moves (wrong again). And lately he's on the notion that Matt Rhule is an absolute monarch because supposedly that's the Appaloosa Model now (what it actually means changes each time he's proven wrong).

Basically, he's just desperate to hang his hat on something so he can say he's right and everybody else is wrong. Unfortunately, he knows so little about football that everything he predicts or suggests winds up blowing up in his face.

I've told him before he should just be happy to be part of the conversation instead of trying to act like he's some sort of guru (and thus, annoying people) but he never listens.

I usually give folks a chance to have a conversation in good faith, but yea, people who aren't willing to do that I don't continue to bother with.  No loss.  Good apples, bad apples, every forum has each.  The trick is learning which is which.

Didn't put together that @SizzleBuzz was Sanjay.  Good catch.  His flurry of alts are tricky to read

Its his MO. He picks out something he thinks is a big deal and obsessively spams multiple topics with it till people are sick of hearing about it.

Previously it was a two tight end set pic that he found on Wikipedia. Now it's purported insight into David Tepper that he supposedly got by watching "Billions" on Showtime.

(guess you could say he has a pattern of questions sources too)

Your imagination knows no bounds...

(hey, it's understandable...you have a half million posts...hard to remember what took place when you're jacking up 1,000 posts per day 😂)

So far he's done an incredible job bringing in talent via the draft and FA.

Im more of Scott Finesser connoisseur. i like to add rerererer to the end of finesse since it adds a element of class to it as well....

Finesse initially meant skill and manueving through a situation with ease but over time it's been used to mean stealing or taking something in a sneaky manner.   

As my fellow kids say- "Finesser be licking fools"....

Great face pic, I did want to see one with more of his neck tho.....

Well some of that is partially true. Like Rhule can't be fired by Fitterer which is how it usually goes with the GM on top. Rhule has more authority than most HCs and certainly more than 1st time NFL head coaches. Fitterer clearly knows his poo though.

    • I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.
    • I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.
    • I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
