I genuinely wonder what Jerry Richardson is thinking about his team right now.

I don't.

The good son (Jon) passed away. The other one (Mark) was universally hated by everyone who had to work with him.

Tepper is crap, but Mark Richardson wouldn't have been any better.

Would have been WAY more interesting if Diddy and co bought the team

He did a radio interview a while back where he claimed he was the runner up in the final bidding.

it was bullsh-t, of course. He didn't have anything close to the money it would have taken.

I can’t remember why he wouldn’t pass it to his sons. Some kind of falling out, right?

He didn’t actually HAVE to sell did he? He coulda just let his wife or Brenton Bersin take over.

LOL. Brenton Bersin is definitely in his will somewhere.  I’m not sure of all the details but JR and his sons definitely had a falling out.  He didn’t have to sell, but I think after the blue jeans Friday stuff came out he wanted to sell and disappear from the public eye.

I got this story from someone who worked there.

The team was having a year when they were unable to hand out Christmas bonuses or some such. Jon drew some cash from his personal account, gathered the people under him together and gave them hundred dollar bills out of his own pocket. He even told them all he was sorry he couldn't do more.

Well Mark (because he was a pissy little b-tch) complained about it. He said it made him look like an a--hole. Mind you, he already looked like an a--hole, so status quo. But it became a huge deal regardless.

If I remember correctly, Mark still owns some small percentage of the team, but nowhere near what it was.

Jerry Richardson is probably thinking :" I know I made some mistakes by  playing favorites with certain players and trusting Marty Hurney to much but the way Teppers is  allowing that clown, Matt Rhule, to fug up the team I was responsible for bringing to the Carolinas really blows my mind."

Extremely pathetic if that’s true.  Some people just really won’t let anyone have nice things.  I hope Mark doesn’t have anything to do with this team, but after a quick google search, it appears that he does.  Wonderful.

Pretty sure the NFL owners were forcing him to sell. Not just sell, but sell to Tepper. JR had clearly fallen out of favor since Snyder has done as bad or worse and there have been no cries from within the NFL to force him to sell. LOL @ JR. He always out the NFL as a whole above his own team and they still ultimately turned on him.

Still remember when he announced that the scandal would all be handled by an "internal investigation".

I was pretty sure at the time that he fully believed his NFL brethren would cover for him.

Imagine his face when he found out they wouldn't...

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
