"well liked and works well with others" reads like "fully willing to be a rubber stamp for David Tepper" to me.

Sad to say I'm starting to get that feeling as well.

The way Dianna Russini talked about Frank Reich's situation made it sound like Tepper and Fitterer were on the same page. She also pointed out (rightly) that defense and special teams haven't been a problem, just offense.

So if Tepper feels okay about the roster in those areas, it would indicate he might not have a problem with his GM or front office.

Tepper- "Listen here Scot, matt rhule is the boss, do as he says."

Fitt- "ok...i mean yes'

Tepper- "Fired Matt Rhule, Im the CEO boss now. I demand trading to the #1 and after din-din we are drafting Byce Young"

Fitt- "yes"

I nearly think it's a lock that fitt is just teppers #1 yes man.

Only way you could keep this guy around....any of the 31 teams in the league woulda jettison his azz two years in maybe sooner.. Its like Fitt had aspirations of being a brain surgeon but ended up a stir cook...

To be clear, there's another side to the "works well with others" discussion.

Why did we draft Matt Corral? Reportedly it was because Ben McAdoo wanted him.

Why did we draft DJ Johnson? Word on that was that he was favored by DC Ejiro Evero.

Why did we sign Miles Sanders? Story there was that Deuce Staley and Frank Reich advocated for him.

Why did we draft Jonathan Mingo? Pre-draft we were told that a certain receiver had so impressed the coaching staff that they were certain to draft him if they had the chance.

Why did we draft Bryce Young? Well, that topic's been discussed plenty already.

There's a pattern here, though.

Former Titans GM Floyd Reese hated having coaches involved in scouting because, per his words, coaches had a tendency to fall in love with a particular player over highlights rather than looking at the whole picture.

Obviously, it's the GM's job to get the kind of players his coaches want, but how much he should listen on particular players is a matter of debate.

It's one of those things that's been in the back of my mind for a while now. Tepper is obviously the bigger concern, but these stories also make me wonder.

I am convinced that Scott Fitterer will be here for another year. Tepper is a joke and so wildly incompetent that he would fire the head coach and not one of the worst GMs in recent history. Absolute clown show. I would do anything to make Tepper sell the team.

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By strato · Posted

      He was saying Ron hid when he was cut/traded whatever that was.  I get being resentful, and feeling like that was gutless.  He, and Ron, neither are from the ‘breaking up with someone in a text or email is okay’ generation. That avoidance is seen as a lack of character.  Talking about it on camera how many years later? Why? And it is all one sided he said she said stuff. As he is speaking I am thinking well I bet that ain’t the whole story.    Between this type of stuff and him cheating on the wife stuff some of his shine is wearing off.

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By frankw · Posted

      I was very critical of Ron Rivera as a coach for a range of reasons. But Steve Smith has been playing the victim for years now and it's just not working anymore. We know for a fact that he was disgruntled from the moment we drafted Cam Newton because of his own ego. That says more about him than anything he could say about Rivera. And yes Ron Rivera had a lot of faults. No excuses for it. We were right to move on from him. But ultimately Steve Smith couldn't hold it together with that group the same as he struggled to hold it together under previous regimes. He needs to grow up and accept his own role in the last few years of his Panthers career because there are things he could and should have done differently the same as anyone else. Stop seeking to only shift blame to everyone else and evolve or just stop talking and fade away. This isn't helping anyone and it is certainly not helping his image.

      A friend of mine was involved in building Steve Smith's house and nearly came to blows with him during the process.  Love Smitty as a player, but I've heard very little good about him as a human being.
