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.

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.

      Perfect example why Zod said they are getting rid of the Tinderbox. 😉 Segmenting which swallow has the best airspeed velocity is what divides us! Bravo Zod.

      Who needs to step up in 2026

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      I've been reading around on different websites about our team and OTAs and minicamps.  There are several members of this team that need to step up.  These are a few of mine.  Please feel free to add to the iist. 1. Bryce Young, Obviously the No. 1 person who needs to step up.  Bryce has been given everything a QB could ask for.  We have a top tier offensive line. Big WRs that can get open and make plays.  A decent running game.   Over tha past couple of years we have really put enough players in position to help him.  He has to be the guy to step up and utitlize his players. 2. Jaelan Phillips, Just because of the massive contract we gave him.  He has to be the leader of the pass rush.  He has to be in double digit sacks or the money isn't worth it.  He has to bring Scourton and the rest of the group to the top. 3. Ejiro Evero, Two years ago he had the statically worst defense in NFL history but was given a reprieve because we focused primarily on the offensive side of the ball for Young.  Last year we improved and we just didn't have enough to stop elite QBs.  This year he has been given just about everything a defensive coordinator could ask for.  IMO he has 4 cornerbacks that have impressed this offseason.  He received solid help for Brown with Hunter and Phillips. Our weakest area, LB Corp, we signed Lloyd to solidify that group.  With all the tools he has this season he needs to show why we kept him after 2024.  IMO he has no excuses this season.   Lastly, IMO is X. Legette. He has shown sporadic flashes but nothing to justify being a first round pick.  The WR room is stacked this season and any number of players from that group could make the 53 man roster. XL is going to have to show out this preseason.  At minimum, he performs well enough to possibly get a trade to a team needing a WR.  I think with T-Mac, Coker and Brazzell in the mix for the top three position we would be wise to utilize the remaining WR spots for players with a larger ceiling than XL.  Training Camp and Preseason will sort them out and IMO if XL doesn't flat out show out he's done in Carolina.  Feel free to add to this list.  And of course, your opinion.

      I'm all for it. Improved moderation sounds great. A number of thoughtful dudes and I believe 100% of the thoughtful women that used to post here have been gone for years.
