So panthers suffer because of Richardon?

So if Richardson wants the other 31 owners to spend more responsibly to get employee costs under control, he can’t be the one blowing the budget on one luxury item.

That means he’ll have to swallow hard, and hold the door for Peppers to walk away

If that hurts his team in the short term — and it certainly does — it’s a cost he’s willing to absorb.

Because in Richardson’s mind, keeping the NFL competitive is more important than keeping the Panthers that way.

This is actually refreshing to hear to me. I hate all the selfish owners that are in the NFL like Jerry Jones that will spend millions and millions to make sure they have the most talent. It helps there pocket book to keep this league as competitive as possible because that will increase our sports popularity.

Regardless of whether or not Mr. Richardson is trying to set an example, it's hard to justify spending that kind of money on a 30 year old DE.

I would like to see Peppers stay, but if the only way to do that is to pay him 21 million for one season only to watch him walk away next season, then I can understand the decision to move on now.

Yeah..But whats gets me is that this could have been avoided if we would have traded peppers last year.

For this very reason, I believe that we will not only let Peppers walk but we will also not go after any expensive free agents. We may very well have the lowest payroll in the NFL next season. Not a bad business move if people still come to the games and buy the merchandise. The Organization could stand to make alot of profit in an uncapped year with no salary floor either. It is a business after all and we all know that Jerry is all about the league over the team. Hence the NFL logo still at mid-field.

How much money does the average NFL owner make per year? I have heard 20-50 million, which sounds like a lot, but it is total BS that an owner, who takes the financial risks of investing and continuing to operate a team, could make the same as a fine young male DE that plays about half the time. The players salaries (particularly those on the high end) are out of whack.

Glad to know his owner buddies and NFL buddies are more important to him than the PSL owners and diehard fans who buy his overpriced beers.

Winning a fuging superbowl should be priority #1 here and it's becoming obvious to me it isn't.

Can it be any more clearer where our owner's loyalty lies? I mean the big ass NFL logo midfield should say it enough, but damn man. How is this an example of a "great" owner? :frown2:

    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.    
    • Somehow this channel has been uploading NFL games, few are Panthers games just scroll.  https://www.youtube.com/@frankiesacco/videos
    • Yeah that seemed like the type of game where we'd lay an egg and find some way to lose to the Cowboys.  But instead the Panthers came out and beat the crap out of them.  That one felt good because the Panthers came out and performed like an elite team when the whole country was watching.
