I wouldn’t be mad if Fitterer was fired

I don't see a really good reason to fire Fitterer right now.  Like @kungfoodude said:

The truth is we the public don't know the full dynamics.

We need to give him a chance with complete control as opposed to playing second fiddle to a used car salesman.  Now, if he bungles this off season, then there you go.

My biggest gripe with Fitterer is trading cmc to an in conference rival. I'd take less compensation if he went to the afc. Just watch when we finally go to the playoffs and having to play cmc and he stands in our way. In the afc we would only have to face him once every four years or in a super bowl. Thats what irks me with Fitterer though.

We didn't get anywhere near enough for McCaffrey - but I also suspect he was exaggerating how bad his injuries were. It was best for both parties that we broke up.

Well that's part of the conundrum. We are placing the future of the team in the hands of someone who knowingly took the role of glorified errand boy and stood by while we traded for Sam Darnold. If people want to rationalize that to cope I can understand but the truth is he is either going to do very well or he is going to set us back several more years. The Seahawks seem to have done quite well in his absence if that means anything.

Rhule was such a bad coach and so bad for the entire organization that it might behoove us to give everyone involved a bit more of a runway to prove themselves here.

This team (and fanbase)  had been ground into the carpet by the time Rhule was fired. I honestly think that if we go into next season with Wilks and Fitterer in charge we will see greatly improved  results and a return to a team with an identity.

I am still willing to give him an offseason with the full control that he has now. If it looks pretty similar to some of the previous offseasons....I am probably off his bandwagon forever.

And that’s totally fair.   
 

I’ll probably join you.

Can anyone tell me what Fitterer has done to deserve staying though the next head coach? What’s his best move? Drafting Icky? Signing some offensive linemen who panned out?

As far as I can see he wasted a ton of resources on Sam Darnold who sucked ass most of the time he played for the Panthers, whiffed on re-signing some key players like Hasaan Reddick, drafted injury prone Jaycee Horn instead of Slater or Justin Fields…

Wait why is he still the GM again? 

Where is it written Justin Fields is the franchise changing amazing QB a few believe he is. I have seen some of his game sand he is a GREAT runner and mediocre-half way decent passer. If we had drafted him ourselves I would have been disappointed. Also Horn's being so injury prone are two injuries any other player would have had if they were in that same scenario. I understand it if he was laying out of every practice for BS reasons like a sore finger nail but the dude has had some bad luck so far. Does it mean every season will be this way? Cant say for sure but I personally doubt it. When Horn is playing CB he is WORLDS above better than Justin Fields is at his QB position. I dont understand some peoples obsession saying we should have drafted Fields. The most important thing a QB does is THROW the football and he is not even that great at it so far. Cam was 100 times the QB Fields is and I want another Cam at QB, not a Fields who runs great and often looks like he just wasnt meant to throw the football in the NFL.

I agree Fit has been bad in some situations and he has made some decent decisions in others. I would probably give him another year to see what he does before brining down the axe on him. Lets see what he can do as far as results from players on the field with an actual real NFL head coach leading our players and not the numb skull narcissist in over his head blame casting excuse making process propaganda spinning loser we had at coach. Im not saying Fit is a god or anything but he at least deserves a season alongside an actual NFL head coach with a functional brain. Im biased and pretty much think Mat Rhule was the worlds worst coach the NFL has ever seen not to mention the biggest whiny bitch back stabbing piss willy after the fact of being fired scourned lover ever. Lets see what Fit can do with someone who isnt a piece of dog poo.

I don’t mean this as a knock on CMC but who knows how long he’ll be effective for.

He also traded Dan Arnold in that Henderson trade who was doing well with Darnold at the time.  The much needed pass catching tight end

He had 7 catches in 3 games for us, how could we possibly replace that?
