Fitt never deserved a chance and neither does Morgan. IF he dosent have the backbone to stand up and tell them they are making mistakes then he is signing off on the bullshit and just happy to be cashing those Tepper checks. 

Tired of yes men, get some real football people in here who are not going to bow down to the bosses every whim. 

Chances should be earned and so far he won't be missed either.

Tepper only hires yes men who sling BS for him. I can't identify one person inside the organization that doesn't fit that mold. I was hopping that was Morgan but his work with his friend this year was massive garbage. AT and Bell were the positives while the rest was all failures.

Training up people is a great philosophy...when there is a good environment for it. That is not what Tepper turned the Panthers into so there really isn’t a reason to pretend this time is different with Morgan.

Because he's a football guy, first and foremost.  Secondly, he was recently added so this poo show isn't his bowel movement.

I could be mistaken but I believe he is mostly over the scouting of draft players and our drafts have been awful.  I like Dan Morgan, he was a beast when he played here and it makes a good story, but I'm tired of stories.  I want to win.

I thought it was the same old mcafee panthers talk: “Tepper isn’t patient blah blah blah” I swear everytime I hear them talk about Carolina, they say the same exact thing. “Tepper isn’t one to be patient”. Well, he was pretty patient with Rhule, should of fired him at the end of his first season. Is that how everyone thinks, Dave isn’t patient? 
 

 

Yeah, I've never understood where that narrative came from. He was also patient with Ron and Hurn-Dogg as well. Too much so, actually. Tepp's got a lot of flaws, but impatience isn't one of them,

I thought Fritterer was the draft guy and Morgan was the pro guy. They are friends and built this year together at the hip...

I could have it backwards but pro personnel moves and draft moves have all been bad so it doesnt especially matter I dont guess.

Fitterer is as good as gone.  Hopefully they name Morgan the new GM.

I don't know if Morgan is upgrade, he has been really close with Fitt and Fitt seems to depend on Morgan's input a lot, at least from what we have seen during the Behind the scenes during the Panther's confidential episodes. I'm interested to see a dark horse candidate already in house, Adrian Wilson who came over from Arizona.

Yup. Again, they are close friends so it was all done together.

Just saying no to the Sanders contract would have given me pause but Bell and AT are not enough for me to justify the rest. They both epically missjudged the oline situation in a scheme swap. That is nail for me personally.

Okay. so don't give the guy shot who has been in football his entire life over a dude that stumbled into football.  If I remember correctly, Fitterer had a baseball background that became a scout and move from baseball to football.  Morgan has literally lived his whole life in the game. So I think he has a leg up on his boss.  It wouldn't be the first time a junior member of a organization could outperform their boss if only given a chance. 

Also, you aren't going to find a replacement mid-season if Fitterer is let go.  Who's going to make personnel decisions or will Tepper take on that role?  That's right, most likely Dan Morgan.

You people have to think sometimes. 

Fitterer has over 20 years of experience as a football scout and personnel guy. Morgan has a little over 10. And playing the game doesn't necessarily make you a good talent scout. Those are different skill sets.

Their respective areas are of expertise are different. The vast majority of Fitterer's experience is in college scouting. Morgan has spent more time on the pro scouting side of things. That's his concentration with the Panthers.

Perhaps most worth noting though, Morgan credits Fitterer for basically teaching him everything he knows about being a personnel guy.

For those wondering about the context of the OP, here is the link below of a summary:

Adam Shefter on the future of Carolina

Yeah, that's nothing new. That's just restating what was said in the pat McAfee interview on Monday. It's all speculation with nothing concrete and nothing new. 

Big ol' nothing burger. 

I won't lock the thread because the discussion is nice, but I'll edit OP to let people know.

Before we jump all over the Dan Morgan bandwagon... he's been part of this "rebuild", too. Back in his playing days I called him Mushy-head Morgan, partly because of his concussion history and greatly because he just made bone headed decisions. He's a dinosaur throwback Jock who terrorized some teammates and even ended the career of one of our draft picks by knocking the hell out of him in training camp -- just because he thought he needed to do that. 

His Panther connection and connection to Scott Fitterer got him this job, but he needs to be cleaned out with the same broom that takes Fitt. 

I hate to say it, but this thing needs to be blown up from the top down, from GM and HC to  the training staff and scouting groups. if not we're looking at continuing for 20 more years of wandering around pointlessly in the desert.

Morgan and Fitterer are really good friends. I’m sure they think very similar and agreed on a lot of the moves being made. 

Like you, I want Morgan gone with Scott.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
