Dan Morgan interviewed for Steelers GM job

I don't want to lose Morgan or Fitterer. Given their respective skill sets (Fitterer with the college draft, Morgan with pro personnel) they're potentially a very effective combo.

One thing to remember though: The Steelers have interviewed approximately half the planet for their GM job. They also have some pretty strong internal candidates in Brandon Hunt and Omar Khan.

I'm not too worried...yet.

Oh I’m more worried because Morgan wants to leave already and just sign here last year. Tepper should have fixed this, and as fans we have a long, long season coming up!

lol I'm not too surprised. Everyone would go for the higher position (especially with an organization that has some semblance of competency vs Carolina)

BUT, upon first seeing the headline I thought 'Didn't he just get here?!?'

He wants to be a GM and was given an opportunity to interview for what would be a far superior situation than the Panthers have.

I can't really fault him for that.

At the same time, I'm not going to read too much into it.

No I’m just saying I’m tired of people saying they excited about the hires. There’s nothing to be excited about when certain people are leaving for same positions at other places. People will say well their not that good, guess what that makes it look worst because they want to leave here. We won’t be able to sign any good players because they don’t want to come to this organization.

Come on man, he is not going to decline an interview to become a GM even if its a long shot

Yeah but you would have to bury your head in the sand to not think the dysfunction here is a factor. Especially with multiple assistants making lateral moves.

Yeah we are a mess but him interviewing for a GM spot isnt like some tell tale sign.  Anyone with a pulse would go to that interview if a GM was your dream job.  He is not turning it down

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
