I will always be a fan regardless of the shat storm that may be happening at any given time. My life doesn't revolve around any sport, but I am a twenty plus year fan.

I can see casual fans not being into them, but anyone who has been involved with this team are still excited.

You may be right, I dont know, but we are 72 hours or so from kickoff I would think either Tepper and/or fitt would take over the controls if samir was truly the one holding all of this up. 

Samir was promoted in the offseason to have decision power on our spend. Tepper may be able to override him, but I think Fitt would be more of a lateral decision maker. It's very likely our front office is setup like our coaching staff. Everyone owns their own bucket of work. 

ie:
Fitterer: Roster management and acqusitions
Dan Morgan: Scouting
Samir: Salary Cap
Adrient Wilson: Player evaluation

 

The model of one person owning it all is slowly moving its way out the NFL. There are many FOs that have multiple decision makers as opposed to just one.

you have to trust the people you hire... Normally we'd argue that Tepper is too involved in the franchise, now it sounds like we are disapointed he isnt getting invovled?

Anyways, my whole point is that this hasnt played out yet... so for right now... we wait... we overeact... then we relax.

Agreed. Stepping in and taking over would be a Matt Rhule type maneuver.

One would think that after a whole offseason of whining, bitchhing, and moaning that fans would be ready for some football.

 

Yet 2 days before the season starts we still have whining, bitchhing, and moaning. Evidently there is no limit to the amount of negativity this board can produce.

 

Fanatic thy name is Panther fan.

So you want to overpay Burns?  Sometimes playing hardball is the best way to meet in the middle.  Rams trade aside (that's a sunk cost now) we appear to be trying to not overpay him.

If Tepper involved himself in this you'd be angry about a meddling owner... I think a lot of people actively try to find something to be upset about. Before we grab the pitchforks why don't we wait until we either hear negotiations have came to a halt or we have a new contract.
