Most analysts say it's down to Tepper vs Navarro, which is pretty much what we've long been expecting.  A lot of us early on thought Tepper would just outbid everybody, but that hasn't been the case.

Who you should root for is a matter of choice. I'd honestly be fine with either one.  There are differences I could see in what they might do, but it's all really just speculation.

On that front, I'd say if you want things done the Steeler Way by a guy with Northern sensibilities and a Miami address, you probably want Tepper.  If it means a lot that the owner is tied to the Carolinas and you want someone who'll run the team like a Southerner, then Navarro is your guy.

I know Katie Peralta recently said Tepper not being from here and not likely to live here even if he does buy the team shouldn't be a big deal, but I have a feeling for a lot of people it will.

Likewise, David Newton saying that Ben Navarro is a lot like Jerry Richardson probably throws some folks off, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'd make the same mistakes.

Either way, there's general agreement we'll know who the new owner is within the next few weeks.

Are either of them “less likely” to hold the city hostage and a threat to want a new stadium?  If so that’s the one I will be rooting for.

Tepper could pay for a new stadium himself, but I doubt he would.

That's something I don't see either of them doing anytime in the near future, but you never know.

I like the report that Navarro would likely hire a consultant to reorganize the team.  I don't want a new owner who thinks they are some sort of football savant that needs no advice.

I like this and the fact that he likes open air stadiums. I hope Navarro is the guy.
