JR won't have this franchise much longer..

He is eighty one years old with an eight year old heart transplant. He looks frail and not in top health. This team will probably be sold as his health further declines. Let's hope that when this happens, the new owner (or owners), plan on keeping our team here. Also the top priority of any new owner will be to WIN and be profitable. I'm not sure this is the top priority here right now.

 

I thank JR for bringing N.C. an NFL team. We probably wouldn't have one without him. Panthers need a new path and hopefully when they are sold, they will find one. The one we have just embarked on now is not the right one.

Not saying OP implied this or said it, but it truly is amazing how the same "reasonable" posters who claimed anyone who spoke ill of Gettleman was a traitor or not a true fan, and those same posters, in multiple posts, have outright wished JR would pass away.  Some classy "fans" we have...

Don't wish any ill on the man at all. Thanks to him we have our team. It's just reality, he is old and in poor health. If we had a fifty year old owner in great health, then things would stay the same for years to come. When he steps down to enjoy the rest of his life and family, then things will change.

JR will not sell the team. His estate will sell the team after he dies. If he sold the team now h would pay capital gains taxes on the sale of the team. The estate would then face an estate tax when he dies. This would result in getting double taxed which is why owners wait until after they die to sell the team even if they are not able to carry on the ownership responsibilities.

I wish Jerry Richardson nothing but the best in the years he has remaining on this earth.

I'll always be grateful for his efforts to secure a team for the Carolinas.  His convincing and professional presentation to the NFL was widely lauded at the time when Charlotte was considered no better than a long shot in the race for a new franchise.

After years of mediocre performance on the field I really thought JR had finally seen the light with the hire of Gettleman.

Alas, the Panthers are now back to their old Mom and Pop ways.  Sadly, it looks like JR is going to have to relinquish ownership of the team before fans are able to enjoy any long term success.

    • Ya'll.....look at Stafford without his feet set. This is why people in here talk about Bryce not having elite abilities mattering when plays break down. He cannot make these kind of throws with his base not being set. 
    • Pretty much going to play each other the same way.  Stop the run let the bad QB try to win the game. It will come down to who makes the least amount of mistakes. 
    • From the Charlotte Observer   1. quarterback Bryce Young has yet to earn a road win this season, and the third-year former overall No. 1 pick is 1-15 on the road as a starter for his career — which is tied for the worst record over 16 games in NFL history. 2. The Jets, meanwhile, haven’t won a game yet. But even still it’s tough to pinpoint their identity. 3. They’ve lost four of their six games by a single score — three games by two points, specifically.  4. Quarterback Justin Fields has flashed his propensity for playmaking at times this year — with the exception of his Week 6 performance where he only threw for 45 yards passing — and Breece Hall is a undeniably good lead running back having a solid year statistically.   5. The Jets’ team rankings aren’t too ugly either.     Their defense, specifically. That unit is ninth in third-down conversion rate (36.4%) and 10th in opponent passing yards per game (200.5).   Their Achilles heel to date, it appears, is their turnover margin (-1.2, 31st in the NFL).
