Who is your "model" NFL owner?

[TheBigKat]

It appears that David Teppah is wearing out his hedge fund welcome and even taken some low blows from a SC State Sentator. Many people are upset with him over Rhule and then fault him over Darnold. 

 

Personally, I still am mixed about Tepper (64), I think his biggest problem is he is applying his bullish hedge fund principles to NFL way of doing business and it is not going to work. 

If I had a vote in who he should model his ownership structure, it would be Steve Bisciotti (61), owner of the Ravens. Also a self made billionaire who came from humble beginnings. I just like the way the Ravens are managed and that team thrives in the Baltimore market which is smaller market size than Charlotte. He had Ozzie Newsome as his GM for 16 seasons, they then transitioned to Eric DeCosta. John Harbaugh was a home run hire for Bisciotti in the early days

Harbaugh led the Ravens to the franchise's second Super Bowl title following a 34-31 win over the 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII. Under Harbaugh's watch, the Ravens have secured nine playoff berths, four AFC North division titles and three AFC Championship Game appearances. 

Harbaugh is three wins away from passing Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy for 26th all-time in regular season wins. He is one of just 18 coaches in NFL history with at least 10 postseason victories. Harbaugh's .609 regular season winning percentage is the 33rd-highest mark in league annals, while his .579 postseason winning percentage is tied for the 28th highest mark in NFL history. 

 

Baltimore isn't some mega market, you won't hear the owner or his team on the news much but they field a competitive team and have a great fanbase, their stadium is just 3 years newer than ours and their stadium is nestled right in the city like ours. 

While the easy answer is Steelers model of ownership, I just think our market and age of our franchise can be more closely modeled to Baltimore than Pittsburgh.

"There's no way in the world that we would ever want to move out of that Camden Yards complex," Bisciotti said. "I'm thrilled that the state is saying, 'Let's get ahead of this thing. We've got the money now, let's escrow it.'

"To me, that's really the biggest news of this offseason. When that's there, and we can start planning how to grow into these next 30 years, it's big. It's big for me, personally. You might be stuck with me for a long time if we get to keep upgrading that stadium."

Even how he is handling the stadium issue, much different tune

I don't know if I have a favorite myself, but the gold standard is still the Rooneys.

Some people would say Robert Kraft but the Rooneys have been at it way longer.

I don't really like any of them as people, some at least can provide a football product that is worth watching and spending money on. The NFL has an owner problem and they look to like it that way. 

[Teddy2SuperBowlHeartBreaks]

Every NFL team should be publicly owned and operated

[Riverboat Ron]

I just want an owner that wins a Super Bowl ever single season.

Such a good model the rest of the NFL owners quickly rallied to ban it.

I dislike all billionaires tbh. Just want one that is almost completely unattached from all football operations on the field.

Yup, you hit the nail on the head.
