Did Jerry Richardson ever alienate the fanbase as much as Tepper has?

The '01 and '10 seasons were bad, but I don't remember the absolute vitriol towards him as there is towards Tepper currently.  Was I happy about those teams? No, but I didn't think ownership was the problem, I thought ownership would hire the right coaches to fix the problem.  Now, I'm convinced ownership 100% is the problem.

those were bad years but you knew that hey we're going to get a great pick because of it (Peppers, Cam) and maybe get a new coach but not once in those years was The Big Cat to blame, just lame duck years

If you were going to strip Richardson of ownership over jeans Friday then the Cowboys and Patriots also needed new owners

It was a coup de ta, I'm certain of it. Old, white, southern man ripe for an overthrow.  Poor old Jerry (Richardson) didn't know what hit him.  While this Jerry^ has more than his share of enough dirt on him.  What sealed it for me was when the owners refused to depose of Daniel Snyder who had countless wrong doings on his watch in DC. 

Jeans Friday and supposed racial slur in a organization full of black people for over 20 years from ONE former scout.

Jerry Richardson was a mid owner who at least understood what kind of team and players would succeed in the Carolinas. David Tepper is a Pittsburgh guy who has NO idea what he was getting into buying a southern football team. It’s so unnatural and forced and it shows on the field. He’s hired two head coaches with strong connections to Pennsylvania and bypassed the one coach who sniffed any kind of on field success who happened to be a Charlotte guy. It’s insane what a bad fit Tepper is to own the Panthers. He really does need to sell the team, for our sake and probably his own. 

i believe Jerry Richardson being a former NFL player of a successful team  definitely gave him a leg up or let's say an advantage over David Teppe.r

Jerry Richardson's biggest issue was that he put too much faith in the wrong people, a frequent end result of which was people being put into positions they weren't really qualified for (Marty Hurney being a prime example).

David Tepper's biggest problem seems to be too much faith in himself.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
