I'm not sure if the jury is still out on Fitterer or they have not even started deliberating yet. 

Our owner made such a mess of the division of responsibilities about who did what and to what extent is mostly unknown.  We know that the guy who had the personnel control in his contract was shown the door.  We also know he was a control freak who wanted to control everything down to the toilet paper used in the bathrooms.  We suspect that sometime after the end of the 2021 season how much control he had was altered by the guy writing the checks, but we don't know to what extent.

It was an NFL version of the MASH episode where they are dealing with a supply officer who is a lieutenant, getting nowhere, asking him who his boss is and he replies "my sergeant."

The best anybody can realistically give Fitterer right now is an incomplete.  The others involved in this comedy are not nearly as fortunate.

Reasonable as far as we go...

That said, during his interview with Will Kunkel, Fitterer basically stated that he and Dan Morgan were the lead in the head coaching search.

That would tell me that at least as far as Tepper goes, there's not any need for "deliberation".

(and that's consistent with what we've heard from other sources)

That’s fair. Start the scoreboard after Rhule. 
 

Traded best offensive player for the equivalent of a mid 2nd rounder. 
 

Turned down 2 1sts, and 37 this year for the privilege of paying a player 25M+ a year. 
 

  Let’s see how these work out.

Walking away from the Rams offer for Burns really, well, burns.  I reluctantly declined on the two firsts since they were 2024 and 2025, but when they added their second this year, which most of us knew would be in the top 10 picks of the second round, well, you run to the bank with that deal.

And the logic is much the same as it was for trading CMC.  Not sure how we didn't either pull the trigger on both or walk away from both.  We were either selling players not on their rookie contracts or we weren't.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
