Dan Morgan should be seriously considered for GM

I know a friend of friend that has a source close to Dan Morgan (not exactly Schefter reporting so make of it what you will)

But what I remember is even when we thought everything was cool and most felt good about Tepper’s hires and direction of the team, he told me that Tepper doesn’t know what he’s doing and is driving the organization into the ground.  He said that in the front office, Dan Morgan was the only one who would speak truth to Tepper and butt heads. 

I truly hope Dan would get the chance to replace Fitterer. I think he would not be a yes man and would actually bring some credibility to the organization. Yes he’s part of the staff now but he was not behind the terrible decisions. In fact I would bet he was probably the only dissenting voice in the room. 

Much like Brandon Beane, who should not have been judged because of Hurney or Gettleman, he needs his own chance to shine.

Speaking of Brandon Beane, he left the Panthers for the Bills in 2017. The following showcases the ineptitude of the Panthers and the huge blunder they made in not canning Nippleshorts for Beane.

Record by Season - Panthers:

2017: 11-5

2018: 7-9

2019: 5-11

2020: 5-11

2021: 5-12

2022: 7-10

2023: 2-15

Overall: 42-73

 

Record by Season - Bills:

2017: 9-7

2018: 6-10

2019: 10-6

2020: 13-3

2021: 11-6

2022: 13-3

2023: 11-6

Overall: 73-41

 

What a disaster!

What a disaster!

If we had canned nippleshorts two months earlier, beane probably never leaves.

Besides the Carolina connection from his playing days, why?

Remember to include his successes as an executive here in your answer.

 

What were Beane’s successes before he became the GM? 

Morgan was successful with Bills as director of personnel.

Regardless of who the new GM will be it needs to be someone who will tell Tepper to stop with all the home run swings at trying to fix the team in one offseason. We spent so much of our resources on Teddy, Sam, and Baker that when we finally made our move to get Bryce cupboard is now stripped bare with no easy way to support him. You have to hope that the new HC can work magic with Bryce with the pieces we do have because most of the cap we have now will be used to retain Luvu, Brown and Burns or you have to fug up the future cap down the road by restructuring guys and backloading contracts in order to get Bryce some help now.

If this were the stance for hiring anyone into any position, there would never be new entries into that specific line of work.

Sounds like a good way to give us all reasons to hate a former player that is well liked.

Just hire someone else and clean house. There are no good answers inhouse and there is nothing good worth carrying over into a new regime. Say good luck and hopefully he goes on to a competent organization to continue his career inprovement, not the career implosion awaiting him as a GM here.

      Frank Reich, Ryan Poles get honest about challenges of developing No. 1 pick QB.  *Reich: My handling of offensive system "probably made it more difficult for Bryce (Young)" *Poles: From 24-25. tone changed from bridging Caleb Williams to 'tough love'   https://x.com/jfowlerespn/status/1957857880276705508?s=46

      As bad as AR has been, the Panthers would’ve been better off right now, if they had stayed at #9 in 2023 and picked him instead of doing what they did.  At least this way, they would’ve only wasted one draft pick vs what they gave up to pick BY. And they would have kept the #1 pick in the 2024 draft.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I felt pretty good about us making progress this season, surprising some people, and getting some more wins than last season going into it.  Now, after preseason, my expectations are much, much lower. I was talking with my friend who is a Bears fan, and we were discussing their drubbing of the Bills and how people try to dismiss it as “preseason, so it doesn’t count.”  It absolutely counts.  Not the wins or losses.  No one really cares about that.  But what the Bears are doing shows that even in a vanilla, non-specific scheme, they are executing at an elite level and they are disciplined.  It shows they are well coached.  They see growth in their players.  Versus us - hard to tell what we’re looking at because everything is a fuging mess.  In games we’re still undisciplined, be it penalties or assignments.  We do NOT execute.  We got random coaches calling plays that won’t be calling plays during the season, we have our players getting into fights in the last padded practice of the preseason, then we have Bryce and Chuba trying to correct it while our coach sat off to the side laughing.  To be clear, I like Canales.  He seems like a good dude.  But, it feels like we have very little direction and discipline.  You’re allowing a team who has been historically bad the last almost decade, with a losing culture that mostly bereft of talent to self-police?  You’re allowing subordinates to work in pet projects at the expense of getting valuable reps and evaluation of players in during games?     My friend literally brought up last night that when Ben Johnson got there he essentially put DJ Moore in notice because it was starting to be perceived that he was displaying some diva-behavior.  That’s leadership.  And they’re reaping the benefits early and setting a tone.  My friend said there is an excitement and confidence in and around their team that’s he’s never felt his entire life.  And here we are, sounding and looking like The Bad News Bears in our final week of training camp and preseason.  I literally stopped watching after halftime last week.  I used to watch every play faithfully, even in 2001 and 2010.  It was fun.  This isn’t.  We are bad and our administration keeps making bad decisions to compound things.  Reading poo like this today is just fuging deflating.
