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.

      Can we all admit it now?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      You’re right. I was thinking of the GB game with the silly reach for the goal line when he wasn’t close that turned into a goal line fumble. I do remember all the discussions in here about end of the game interceptions and bad passes, etc. but that wasn’t against the Chiefs. That said, still the best season by a QB since Cam. Best 4 game run was Darnold to start 2021, but best full season was Teddy. That makes me really sad.

      Agreed. I think they never seriously considered him an option even though he was/is miles better than Darnold.  I think the ego stuff was massively overplayed. He was played for the Browns, a disaster organization, and he accomplished more than they have in years. He came here to another diaster organization that happened to be worse than Cleveland and he didn't succeed. But, how could he? Frankly, who the fug could? I think our general fanbase really underestimates how terrible this organization truly is. It can nuke anyone.  poo, you see how Stroud is struggling with a damn good Texans team? Can you imagine how bad he would be here in our circumstances?? He can thank his lucky stars we made the choice we did.

      I think the vast majority of QBs only thrive or die based on their situations. But some are capable of making everyone else around them better in a way they redefine, or at least elevate, those situations. And some of the former group also just never will really have "it" when the moment matters. So far it feels like Bryce either needs the perfect situation or he just doesn't have "it". I suppose we'll get the season to see if that changes, but to call me skeptical is an understatement.
