What I think happened that really polluted stuff was Tepper pushing HARD to get their franchise QB at any cost - it just has to happen NOW.  No patience. Forcing things rarely works out.

I mean I think that was Tepper. I don’t know anything I just interpret the doings that way. 

The Teddy Bridgewater signing was under Hurney and it was the same sort of deal.  Definitely points to Tepper pushing for a QB as soon as possible.

Hurney/Fitterer in the same room is so weird. Two totally different team building philosophies. 

For us, I mean, are they going to bring in Gettleman too?

Is he still alive, the fat fug? But yeah, no doubt that is noteworthy.

CMC and DJ Moore are doing well in their new teams. Maybe they are banking on our old staff not knowing how to use players correctly?

As for the GMs…. I got nothing. 

Yeah but those players played very well here too. Those weren't diamonds in the rough, they were two of the better players at their position.

Fitterer was not a good GM during his time here but he's served under successful front offices before, doesn't mean he's a bad hire. 

I think Fittterer ultimately will be judged for mishandling the Burns situation. The draft selections are impossible to know how much Rhule and Tepper played a hand in 

I disagree about the last part.  When fitterer came in the type of players we drafted totally changed from Rhule guys and continued after Rhule was gone.  I get everyone wants to blame tepper for everything but even if you say he forced the team to take Young, I doubt he had much if anything to do with forcing any other selection the entire time and they have all been terrible.

Luvu was solid here. Chinn was good his rookie year. I feel like we never used Chinn correctly.

Luvu was definitely an impact guy. Chinn I am not really sure he ends up developing completely. Which, that's really the franchises fault. LB, S, Nickel.....they never could find a role for him that allowed him to shine consistently.

Hopefully they develop him properly in Washington. Love the player.

    • Cooter, Kurb, others have passed on to glory….  Praise be.
    • Oh good for them! Hope this is the start of a long happy time in their lives here.
    • There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
