Breaking, Ian Rapoport: Fitterer Fired

I don't doubt that Scott was a likable guy in the organization.  In pressers, he seemed like a good dude.  But a good dude doesn't make you a quality GM.  He's been in charge of adding and retaining talent to this team for three years and the results speak for themselves.  He's not good at it.

I think he would have been a good fit at as VP of Football Ops or something, looking at the big picture and dealing with Tepper more than having a day to day impact on the team.   But I'm fine letting everything go with this regime.  It's up to Tepper to prove he's learned something.  The buck stops with him, right?

Honestly one of the worst in NFL history given the moves he made. Probably right next to whoever was the browns GM when they were 1-31 over two seasons. This team had the potential to go 0-17 and was lucky to get two wins.

You could have picked any random Huddle poster and they couldn't have done much worse.

It's not so much that they don't work out for the next guy as it is that poor play caused the original guy to be fired.  That being said, given that Bryce is one year in and a first round pick, he will almost definitely have a shot to make it.

100%

Definitely wish we gave the kid a better situation. Not being able to parse out what is more him vs environment vs combination of all is now on the next staff to figure out.

That's actually a common theme this morning:

Ultimately, a guy who was too collaborative (the same issue as Reich, ironically enough) paired with a head coach and an owner who were more than willing to take advantage.

But he also stabbed Reich in the back, so...

Wonder if this means the new GM and Coach will show less loyalty to Young since they have no responsibility for picking him if so he may not last the entire year next year. 

If quality GM/coach prospects start declining the Panthers opportunity right and left, it could mean that Dave is saying they must make BY part of the future. We’re so fuged if he is putting these requirements into the job.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
