Team President


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Tepper confirmed in his presser that he actually already has "a couple of people" that he's trying to wrangle for the team president job. Voth clearly already knew about it when he asked the question.

No names given, but I've long suspected Steeler second in command Omar Khan would be an ideal candidate for that.  I may take a look at other possible options at some point.

It'll be interesting to see who gets named, and how soon it happens.

I'd prefer Genghis Kahn, with his own statue:

Max Henson officially confirms the search is on for a team president, and a few other things...

Quote

His arrival has signaled change, evidenced by something as simple as new paint and the removal of signage in the stadium lobby.

Among the major changes he discussed at the presser:

  • A new practice facility, which he believes the team desperately needs. “We can’t be less than competitive with other NFL teams,” he said. “We’re falling behind a little bit.”
  • Early discussions about plans to “re-do” the stadium and host more events for the Charlotte community, like concerts and high school championship games.
  • The search for a team president, who will be tasked with fostering a family environment.

Kinda wonder what signs they took down :thinking:

Probably all of the stuff that referenced Jerry Richardson as the owner. He was pretty proud of himself, so there was a good bit of it. 

Seems logical.

Perhaps he wasn't "contractually obligated" to keep anything other than the statue up.

That's some Kim Jong Un level narcissism, contractually obligating them to keep his statue. That thing is an eyesore. I wonder how long he'll have to keep it up.

The other name that's been mentioned in connection with Tepper in the past was former Browns Chief financial officer and later team president Mike Keenan. A while back, Ian Rapoport said Keenan was being talked about as a possible addition under Tepper.

Keenan was fired in 2010 and, if I recall correctly, hasn't worked in the NFL since. My understanding is that he worked well as a financial guy, but not so much as a football guy.

If Rodrigue is correct and Tepper plans to replace both Tina Becker and Danny Morrison with separate people, Keenan could be a candidate to take over the business side of the operation. It's also possible that Tepper will appoint someone solely for the business side and leave the football side untouched for now.

We'll see.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
