When is Fitterer fired?

[Panthers Fan 69]

Name the week because it’s happening this year.  This roster isn’t ready to compete despite all those trades. It may indeed be the worst roster ever assembled in the NFL.

Hold on let me call Tepper and ask him.

[SmokinwithWilly]

After Miami drops 70 on us and costs Tepper his shot at the office fantasy football pool.

During the bye week. Can’t start 0-6 after trading up to #1 and not roll some heads 

[Herb]

The worst part is we really should have kept mccaffrey and Moore and traded burns. He did the opposite. Lmao. 

[Shotgun]

I doubt anyone is fired until the end of the season

This time next week

It depends how much Tepper trusts Morgan to try and trade Burns.

Because Burns has to go by the deadline at this point, just have to get the picks and can't risk him getting hurt to screw us in an offseason trade.

So if he trusts Morgan, it likely will be either tomorrow or Sunday after the Miami game and then Morgan gets to do the trade.

If he doesn't, he'll let Fitterer make his final move and then fire him after the trade deadline has passed in case there are other trades that need to be made by then.

I'm hoping the former

What decent candidate would take the job or the hc job? Worst team in football, undersized weak arm qb that you're stuck with and no 1st next year

Anytime. His ticket is punched. If they let him make another trade then they deserve what they will get.

GM is different, I think a lot of qualified candidates would love the chance, even if they know Bryce is terrible as they'll expect a top pick soon to replace him.  You also really never see GM's get fired quickly unless they really do something terrible, so you know you have more job security than a HC with a terrible team.

Coaches sometimes only get 1 chance at a HC job and you can lose it in one year if you're THAT bad.  So taking the risk on a terrible team can be shaky, as if you're so bad you get fired after 1 season, you generally don't get another shot at it.

Which is why I think Reich gets 2 years minimum, the schedule does let up after the bye so I'm not expecting us to actually go 0-17, if we do, he might get fired, but that would really be the only way I think.  But if there isn't significant improvement in year 2 under Reich, he might not last the full season and then a new coach can replace Bryce with the high draft pick in 2025.

Go for what?

 

Some meaningless 1st round pick who we may whiff on?

 

This team is bad bro. Getting younger is not helping us. Burns is the least of our problems right now. We need to be focused on adding talent, not trading talent for unknown talent.

 

Keep Burns and focus on Tee Higgins in FA. Find a GM who can actually make good draft picks. These trades aren't helping us in any way. I get people want a 1st round pick, but we need to keep all the assets we have. This team went all in on Bryce. Put weapons around him in FA and get someone with our 2nd round pick to compliment Tee Higgins.

What's depressing is thinking back to an alternative history where the giants hire rhule, we trade up for herbert bc we don't have a dipshit coach to nix the trade, now we have herbert, McCaffrey and Moore in the same offense

A year too late
