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.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
