What do you think Gettleman is up to right now?

With the announcement that Dave Gettleman is going to throw his hat into the ring this post season on game planning I wonder at this very moment what he is up to?

 

I'll bet he will be using the Art of War approach by Sun Tzu................

 

Maximize your strengths and minimize your weakness..............use deception where ever possible......know you enemy better than you know yourself, etc.

 

I know if I was him I'd be sitting down with the Oline and saying, "Okay I have all these ideas.......which do you think you can execute reliability?"

 

I wonder if he has any old scout friends of other playoff teams who like to small talk about a playoff team they used to work that they still know a lot about?

 

Hehe.........are we in for some surprises this post season?

 

Could be fun.............

 

What do you think?

He's not going to "throw his hat into the ring" all of a sudden.  Gettleman helps providing scouting information to the coaching staff.  He does this during the regular season, not just playoffs.  My guess is that he is a bit more involved with it this week because they have 3 teams to prepare for.  Scouting and game planning are two totally different things.  Most GMs are involved in opponent scouting since they do it for the rookie draft as well.  So doing it for an opponent is not much different.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
