Want Gettleman out?

The Man was hired to do a job, he is a professional..let him do his job. I'm glad I have some patience and not like so many on here that wants immediate results.

I stand behind whatever he does because I am not a pro, only a fan that wants a team that can go up against any team in the league and provide me with some excitement and confidence that I know we can beat any of those teams if we just play our game and stick to the game plan.

People just don't want to see that he wants to set up the franchise for long term success even if the team has to take step back next year. 

Most of our free agents got deals above their production and that's good for them, but it would be a mistake if Gettleman sign them to those contracts. The team has little cap space and Gettleman wants to be out of cap hell in two years to build a long term winning team.

 

He can't take on long contracts because Cam, Hardy and Luke's contracts are coming up.

 

He can't sign free agents if they can get more guaranteed money elsewhere. Don't  forget that the team needs 5 million cap space to sign draft picks. Sometimes, you need to take a step back to take two steps forward.

I tracked down information about that publisher. However, he is in high school. Since he is not 18, I will not disclose his home address or phone number. I did, however, send his parents a message on Facebook.

 

He sounds like the typical new Huddler....which is why this place is steadily and progrssively swirling down the toilet bowl.

That's what happens when your fan base is built by a bunch of corporate but huggers who get all bitchy I they don't get things their way.

Hell at this point I don't want DG gone just so I can see what he does with this mess.

First time in a long time I don't know how good or bad we will be.

As Marv Levy use to say 'if if start listening to the fans you soon will be sitting with them.' Fans can get emotional where a GM has to be take emotion out of it. Look at the Patriots. Probably the most respected NFL franchise. How many players have they let go over the years?

Wow. Lots of time on your hands.

I did, however, send his parents a message on Facebook. I politely informed them that they may want to monitor their child's internet usage to prevent him from going full retard in the future. Also, that there are a lot of idiots out their who will now have access to their families address and such thru their sons internet campaigning.

More like when our fan base (at least the ones in here) are nothing by high school and college kids whose real understanding of football came from playing Madden.

 

Many of them have never had real jobs....never worried about living within a budget....know abosutely nothing about fiscal responsibility.

 

This is not directed at you (becuase I know who you are and that you get it).  It is just the whole "me" generation that have infested the Huddle with the "I want it now......and I don't care how we get it" mentality.

They weren't letting players go before their super bowl wins.

Let me know when they throw Tom Brady to the curb.

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
