I don't even remember seeing any GM's/VP's playing in a football game. I guess it's exclusive for players only.
So what you're saying, is that GM's and FO Exec's should NOT be judged by their teams' on field performances? Seriously? LMAO!!
Ever hear of Jerry Reese? Former GM of the NYG? Between 2007 and 2011 his NYG teams WON 2 SUPER BOWLS. He was FIRED in 2017, 1 year after his team going 11-5 and MAKING the playoffs. His teams had an overall record of 91-85 in the regular season and 8-2 in the postseason. Are you telling me that's WORSE than the Vikings' record during that exact time period (which almost EXACTLY matches the current Spielman error, er, I mean era)?
So, although YOU might think that only players and coaches are held accountable for a professional sports team's success/failure, compared to the rest of the world you are in the VAST MINORITY.
