Do you despise Roger Goodell?

A lot of fan bases hate Roger Goodell. A lot of players hate Roger Gooddell. Some have valid reasons, some don't. 

Has his "wrath" ever really effected the Panthers or any of its players?  Do you think he is good for the sport?

The only situation I can think of where he had influence was with Greg Hardy, but Hardy is an asshat.

I have no problem with him at all. People tend to forget what the league was like before he took over. Pac-man Jones was making it rain in strip clubs and players were straight up acting a fool. He was hired to clean up their off field behavior. Guys still get into trouble no doubt but its not like it used to be. Not to mention they gave him all of that power so I hate it when players complain.

but Cam was making it rain in the strip club 3 weeks ago. 

Anyway he runs the NFL with an iron fist handing out 4 game suspensions like candy. it doesnt seem to be any rhyme or reason to anything but the drug policy. that said its very hard to cry for some guy making million while he complains about how he cant play because assaulted his girlfriend,

I know Saints fans hate Gordell for punishing Sean Payton and Gregg Williams unfairly.  I think I recall about seven of their fans protesting.

If you factor in the percentage of Saints fans that have internet thats a pretty good showing.

I think he screwed up spygate. I don't think he was harsh enough. You suspend Sean Payton for his defensive coordinator running an injury pool but let Bill off for getting caught cheating red handed. No consistency there. That and the Ray Rice debacle...  Now that I ponder those are pretty severe f&?! Ups.

He's a smart guy and is the PR rep for all the owners. He does his job. There have been screw ups (spygate and Ray Rice as was mentioned) but those are failures in policies from the NFL which he may oversee but, again, is a total function of the owners. I don't really have any issue with him.

I don't have a problem with him at all. He has to make major decisions that will in one way or another affect his company and 32 others. He deals with sponsors, the government at times and other enormous issues that most of us couldn't fathom. People just like to point the finger at him even if they don't understand his role.

He has made mistakes, but show me someone who doesn't and I'll show you a liar.

    • I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner. 
    • How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.
    • I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
