He says its his model of doing things.  thats telling, it was totally unnecessary

The model isn't broken, it's who made the call for it to happen.  Did Fetterer do this on his own or did Rhule say make it happen?  HCs don't draw up contracts.  Again, who was the point man in saying: 'lock Robbie up before he hits FA after the season?'  Was it Rhule or was it Fitterer? I will eat crow if you can prove that Fitts did this largely on his own and Rhule wasn't the driving force behind Robbie staying in Carolina.

Anybody thinking coaches aren't at least 50% culpable for that outburst has probably never played WR or RB. That ish was not okay. I probably would have lost my ish too. He just shouldn't have kept going at him. Say your peace so they know how you feel, then bust your tail to make a play somehow. 

This is about the only sensible post in this thread.

Are you saying he deserved the ext?  Not following here.  The model, as according to Fitt was to get ahead of him becoming a free agent with the ext even when he had a season left.  Thats not smart in regards to this jackass.  Its probably not smart even to do before the season for a guy you actually like.   We obviously had the same philosophy with Cmac and you know how that went.

 

If rhule said to sign him (which I agree with you he did) then fitt is a gm cuck for not pushing back if he didnt think it was necessary.   And like I said he better have some receipts of that given the RA past 2 years of play and his behavior this season.

In short there was absolutely no reason to add money and years to his deal.  And that is without even acknowledging the elephant in the room of Terrace Marshall.  Who we drafted in the 2nd who we apparently had a first round grade on him.  Signing robbie to an extension, drafting marshall so high and knowing we had to sign moore (which he talks about in the video) is not good roster management

Rhule had 100% of roster control at this point.  Fitts could have pushed back, but who is going to win that argument?  Now, I will agree the extension was bloated.  The years wasn't necessarily the problem (2 more years), but the money was too much. 

Marshall was a rookie.  Unless you have a high first round pick at WR, you don't pencil them in as starters.  As shown, Marshall was always going to be a project.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      He’s kind of overrated to be honest. Never really felt like a true #1 or elevated his play to become a guy the defense really has to worry about.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.

      there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.
