Goodbye David Gettis

[top dawg]

Who is hating AE? 

[CRA]

I went from about 25% respect for Rivera to 0%. fuging idiot.

Why don't you wait until Gettis does something before you go all the down to 0%.....bc if RR deserves that then Gettis will in fact go be productive somewhere.

Another thing to keep in mind is that Olsen is the #2 option on this team. Lafell is really a #3. You add in Hixon and Ginn and Even Edwards that were above him and he wasn't going to see many snaps even if he made the team.

 

Olsen being a number 2 will be one of the reasons our offense will be mediocre as hell 

[Proudiddy]

Really? Cutting an injury prone late rounder with questionable hands and toughness caused you to lose what little respect you had for our coach? Ok.

Armanti Edwards and Dominick Hixon say hello.

And what the hell has AE done that makes you defend him so much?

HE BEAT MICHIGAN!

 

 

sorry, could not resist. :)

I am not part of the AE bandwagon. I think they are wasting their time.

But he was ahead of Gettis and I understand the logic.

[GSO_Pantherz]

Heeeeeyyyyy, more random hate for Armanti. We certainly don't get enough of that around here.

yep. A common trait among Gettis fanboys - Armanti hate. I think they rooted so hard for Gettis becaus it pushed him further down the depth chart, or potentially off the roster entirely.

[rayzor]

Well, plenty of people including this Skins fan thinks that our inability to protect Cam and give him some weapons are hilarious also, and then we take one of them away in lieu of some guys that many Panthers fans have never even heard of.  

 

OK. We'll see how it goes, but don't fail to recognize the humor in the situation when our passing game suffers at the first sign of injury,  just plain mediocrity, and/or lack of execution.

but gettis has been that first sign of injury, which may have been the deciding factor.

 

if they were planning on just rolling with 5 WRs (which even at that is the best looking group of WRs we've had in a long time), him getting injured again was probably the straw that broke the camel's back....kind of a "oh no, here we go again".

 

gettis making or not making the roster wasn't a make or break deal for the offense. it's not a big deal because he probably would have missed several weeks from this latest hammy tweak.

Why would having a difference maker at any position be a detriment to our team exactly?

[KillerKat]

You are giving Gettis way too much credit.

3 passes in 2010 created a legend that kept growing despite him never doing anything beyond it.

I guess a receiver that has just been cut and had 7.5 times the amount of catches in his career than another one that made the team and has literally done nothing gets some people rilled up.

Rivera is the general manager? What does Dave Gettleman do then?

[kdrh5]

AE has been evaluated all off-season, in practice and in minicamps, so he might actually have shown the coaching staff a reason to keep him. It's not like he still has Hurney here to vouch for his upside.

[Floppin]

And what the hell has AE done that makes you defend him so much?

 

Impress a man with 25 years of player personnel and scouting experience enough to make a roster with only 4 other WR's on it, despite not playing in the last three preseason games?
