...shows you if you build the lines you can plug and play....especially at RB...

Right. A RB is pretty damn dependant on the line in front of them. Minus maybe a few select VERY special backs. 

So again, why they felt the need pay Miles who isn’t special is beyond me

Dallas showed that years ago when their line was the most elite in the NFL. Any RB they put in that system became gold. I don't know why Fitts didn't understand this. Philly took Gainwell and made him look like a RB1 in the playoffs. 

Fitts vision is suspect on a lot of levels....just worried we will be in this same spot 3 years from now.

Seems like the thing to do is draft a running back every 2 3 years that is hungry...but they take so much punishment they're spent after about 5 years. The word is out don't overpay for a RB...but what does fit do? overpay for a RB....

I have been long suffering with Fitterer. I have defended questionable moves and honestly blamed most of it on Rhule. However, it is obvious now that Fitterer is not capable of evaluating talent. 

I am kind of there too. I think I cut Fitterer slack because of Dan Morgan.

I never felt like there was enough evidence that he was behind stuff, when we have a heavy handed meddlesome owner and the previous cosach had control over the roster not the. GM. How are you supposed to be able to judge his performance in that situation. I didn’t want to unfairly place blame.

Now, I will fairly place the hell out of some blame.

Whoever’s fault this is, it is time for accountability, and every person involved has majorly failed. 

I am fine with firing all of them. Every single person working on the staff and in the front office. We are like an expansion team, may as well go full new.

    • Here's my deal. I hate the whole "Alpha" bullshit, because it has been turned into an act, a marketing ploy and a wonky set of qualifications. What I think you need as a QB for your team is the happy, smart leader that brings his teammates along rather than throwing them on his back. And they need to be a stone cold killer when they get to the field. As much as I dislike the guy, it's Brady over the Mannings. It's Montana over Marino. It's Bradshaw over Staubach.  And here's the one that'll get me killed around here: It's Jake over Cam.
    • Joe Burrow hasn't played for three quarters of the season and very little in the pre-season. He comes back and posts some very good numbers and leads his team to victory. That's what a #1 franchise QB should be doing, not whatever is going on here. The eye test doesn't lie. Throw out the rose colored glasses and believe what your eyes are telling you. Five more games and then a decision needs to be made on a certain players permanent status.  Do what is right for the team and fiqure out how to improve that one very critical position. Please don't fug it up this time.   
    • I’m all for bringing a QB in but who? The FA list is ass. The draft class isn’t great I’d take a flier on Trey Lance and if available in 4th someone like Leavitt or Mateer? I never wanted Dalton back especially at the contract Dan gave him. He’s utterly useless on the field and his cap hit isn’t nothing. He provides nothing.  There’s a lot of bad QB play this year and passing is down. Guys worth trading for are most likely not going to get traded.  As much as many of you don’t want to hear it our best option is to decline the 5th year option. Give Bryce 2026 while we have him under contract. Then in 2027 either sign Bryce (tag would be an option. Don’t repeat the Darnold mistake) or draft another QB and do it all again
