Then why is he still here? Why not begin the hiring process on the GM side now?

I have no idea how keeping SF helps any master plan if he is going to just be around for a couple more weeks. This just sounds like pure speculation from a source. I wish it is true but that doesn't make it true unfortunately. 

I can understand why he is still here, even if I don’t like it, that there is no reason to fire Fitt till Black Monday.

Do GMs historically get fired in season? The last one off the top of my head was Marty almost a decade ago.

Dave was fired right before the season started. Some wait until after the draft. It's a mixed bag.

In this case why would they need to wait 4 more weeks? Is his work getting that time left to prove himself? Has Tepper ever really shown enough competency that it's normal for him to do the typical thing? 

If he wasn't fired by now I am very skeptical he will be fired. Maybe he is being held as a backup plan if Tepper can't buy what he wants to in the offseason. That is the best rational I could think of vs just starting the hiring process and getting a head start on other teams.

I’ll keep reiterating it - Tepper had better not retain 1 single person in that front office. Keeping anyone associated with this comedy of errors will show he hasn’t learned a damn thing. 

The entire front office is terrible. Scouting as well.

I seriously don't get it. I can guess the first part but what the hell is he doing between now and Black Monday that would be any different than just firing him now?

Maybe who they want to go after is still a part of a competitive team. Fitterer's job is basically done for this season anyways so he's just sitting around watching his shitty roster waiting for the ax

They can't officially hire them in that situation but they can interview and make a deal to hire them after the playoffs. So why wait?

      Good film breakdown of Young. Good and bad. Film examples

      Bryce isn't a risk-taking gunslinger.  That's just QB DNA.  No one has ever said that is what we were drafting when we went that route.  That's my point.  That's not Bryce. Can you make Alex Smith throw deep? Sure.  He will occasionally.  In the reverse, can you ask Brett Favre to just take the easy layups? Sure.  He can in moments.  But in the end, they are what they are.  as I have said, Canales probably could win more games with PJ Walker.  And Bryce is a better overall QB than PJ.  PJ Walker would also have much worse games mixed in that Bryce would.

      From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.

      Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.
