Both Reich and Fitterer are known to be easy going, non-ego driven personalities, so things are expected to go smoothly between them.

That's the best thing about this particular pairing for me. I've always loved Reich, but matching him up with another guy who is just genuinely interested in the best outcome, no matter who's gripping the wheel of the ship most tightly, has the potential for some nice - and much needed - synergy imho.

It's the norm for a reason. Let the coach focus on coaching and let the GM focus on roster building. Yeah, it's a collaborative effort but both jobs are full time plus jobs. 

Not to mention the whole "checks and balances" thing is a proven management model.

We didn't need checks and balances.  We had The Process.  That makes checks and balances unnecessary.

I swear, every time I see checks and balances break down in anything, the result is a fiasco or worse.

College coaches are basically king of all they survey.

Rhule said in an interview he gave while still at Baylor that full control was a non-negotiable for him taking an NFL job.

Anxious to see what it looks like in a true collaboration.

Wondering where those guys are who kept on pushing that idea that Rhule didn't have total control over the roster. 

I remember someone telling me Fitts had all the power during the draft. And while our last draft was a little different from the previous, I remember telling that person to go back and watch when we drafted Corral (Camp Confidential). Fitt wanted to wait while Rhule basically said no sir we're doing the opposite/we're making the trade right now. Then giggled afterwards. At least that's what I took from that clip iirc. 

Fitterer has to be an extremely patient guy. I could only imagine the kind of conversations he's had behind closed doors regarding Rhule.

Person previously wrote that Rhule's idea of "collaboration" was badgering anyone who disagreed with him continually until they caved.

I asked many of them "whos Finesserererers boss"....... seemed many never never had a boss and knew the diametrics of how it works.   

I would loooooovvvvve to know the issues rhule veto'd finessererererer and if tepper was aware of each.......

This also from John...

 

This right here….never understood this either. Huge misstep by Rhule. I’m still convinced Christensen could’ve been at least a serviceable tackle if given the chance but after a bout of foot-in-mouth disease Rhule was determined make this work.

      Underdog 2nd year QB preview

      The on field NFL tape begs to differ. He may have been somewhat accurate in college (but never on deep passes he has always been wildly inaccurate on those) , but he was terrible last season at almost every measurable for an NFL QB.  The dude couldn't even complete over 60% of his passes against NFL competition with an average ypa of 5.5.

      There is such a wide disconnect in these discussions on Young because some fans cannot differentiate what ultimately amounts to blind faith based solely on fandom loyalty from real world data and results which say Young finished with one of the worst rookie QB seasons since the Carolina Panthers were introduced to the league. In this era and generation of the sport your arm talent either stands out or it doesn't. That's what we need to see. None of the other moving parts matter without that.

      The franchise guy Carolina Panthers Deep Dive

      contrary to what was expected of him from pre-draft hype or where he was drafted or what it cost to move up there....he was just a rookie in the worst imaginable situation. that's what we saw...a rookie in the worst situation a rookie could be in. there's no way i can pass judgment on what he did last year because of that.  again, it's probably true that most people in here are a lot smarter than me and it doesn't take more than one season of a rookie in the worst possible situation to know that he's never going to amount to poo, or to at the least know that he's never going to be one to count on, but that's not where i am. i don't judge people in their worst moments when the deck is stacked against them. if i'm going to judge at all, i do it when i see how they respond in the next moment.
