Dan was one of the FO guys that didnt want to trade him to the rams along with fitt.  

Do you have literally any proof of this statement?

Yeah that was a mistake but at least he knew not to pay him all that money a few years later.  

Heck even trading him to chi town instead of Moore would have been way better DJ already had his extension.

I'm just looking at when he was the actual GM.  Backing a decision his boss made is a kind of gray area IMO.

Is there any reason to believe Morgan was secretly against every bad decision Fitt made?  

I don't think he was, but I am also taking the "he backed his boss's decision on X" with a grain of salt.  We will just have to see how different it looks with him actually running the show.

Is there any reason to believe he wasn't? Most people wouldn't publicly disagree with their boss/superior.  It's a statement of pure opinion with no facts backing it up.

They had worked together for years and it was a collaborative process.  Not sure why it’s surprising that people have doubts about past decisions.

Again literally 0 proof of that and he wasn't the shot caller then, doubts are just fine pretending it's a fact like you were in the room is ridiculous.

This has been posted and discussed ad nauseam on here.  Morgan didnt want to trade Burns

Morgan was second in command behind Scott Fitterer in 2022 when the Panthers rejected the Rams’ offer just days after trading All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers. The lone dissenting voice was former salary cap and contracts executive Samir Suleiman, who believed the Panthers should take the picks for Burns, according to three sources familiar with the discussions.

I understand that and who knows what was said between him and Fitt. Once the decision was made he will obviously “back” it. It’s not getting out that they are in disagreement on an important decision.

Suleiman was against it and that got out, its not always a united front.  I mean morgan has receipts to bad decisions.  The dj johnson, dane jackson, Jammie Robinson etc.   Nobody is perfect but his "wins" so far are pretty limited.  Mike Jackson, Johnson.  But like I said he is behind a couple of disastrous decisions as it stands now

    • I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.
    • When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
