Admit I was wrong about Gettleman.  Hasn't won anything here or now in NY. I thought he was a top notch hire, but in hindsight he held us back. I won't even mention Hurney, he was unqualified and a bone head from day one.

Our GM these days is young and seems to know his sh%t. Great hire it seems and he may finally be the answer for this franchise. We didn't know much about him at the time, turning out to be the best of the bunch by far.

None of us are perfect.  It just gripes my ass thinking about all those wasted years.

I felt like Gettleman did a really good job getting us out of cap hell and cleaning up the mess from Hurndog V1. He was good at finding cheap bandaids in free agency, but I believe he fell over once we had a chance to be competitive and didn't know how to take the roster from that rebuild stage.

Hurney was well liked by the roster but suuuuccckkkedd big time at cap management. I think he wanted to make every player on the team the highest paid at their position lol

Fitterer's first impression has been very strong. He showed no fear in trading (without getting fleeced), used free agency reasonably well and I really liked the draft. I think the big thing with have is a GM and a coach that are working in tandem. It always felt a bit like Ron and Hurney/Gettleman were never 100% in agreement. The jury is still out on Fitterer but I like what I've seen so far

      Least excitment before any season?

      By strato · Posted

      They cancelled JR big time. Until I see the actual accurate account of the racist slur part of the ‘case’, I am not judging him on it. People lose their temper and say poo sometimes because they want to hurt the other person and can’t come up with a reasonable insult. That is why people call people names, as far as I can understand.  It happens. People get pissed and say stupid things they wish they hadn’t. That is a fact. I would like the real details before I go into judgement mode.  When I was young and pretty I worked an assembly job at a GE TV plant for about 6 months. My line supervisor was gay and he didn’t ever touch me with his hands but man oh man he harassed the hell out of me. But I needed the job so I dealt with it. It sucks, but you know he never got any satisfaction and I didn’t sue him or GE. I put up with his poo for the paycheck. I left when I could, end of story. No boo hoo and boycotts and lawsuits. Some of these people who get these settlements, I wonder really, how bad was it that you couldn’t endure it for that probably pretty good paycheck.  So I am one who thinks on balance, what I know *for a fact* about JR doesn’t make him a bad enough guy to be forced to sell the team he started. Something tells me Tepper was afoot in that poo.

      Another Bryce breakdown

      I can’t see Bryce Young getting to the Super Bowl unless he is a backup. You aren’t talking about beating most teams, having a nice season. It’s beating everybody just to get there. For his sake I hope I am wrong.

      I agree with the post above that you need great QB play to realistically have a chance. We got our choice of the 1st pick in a decent QB draft and screwed up. Sure, best case is Young has a miracle upgrade, but it looks to me like that’s not going to happen. I liken this to Alex Smith and the Chiefs still knowing they needed Mahomes, except that I’d much rather have a 2nd year Smith than Young. Young might be able to get us into a playoff game but he will never win a Super Bowl. We had an MVP Cam and still lost the big game.
