"Time to bench Jerry Richardson"


The Other Colbert

Recommended Posts

Richardson's sons didn't run any of the football side of the franchise. Yet its some big conspiracy. It's not always best for the family to be in the business. They wanted more control, JR wouldn't give it to them. They walked. Oh well.

Get over it already.

I am a friend of a friend of the grandson and this doesn't resemble his story at all. Second hand info to me but still.

Good article J. Thanks for sharing that. The NFL is a corporation with a non-profit title because it benefits them financially. That article opens up a whole bag of worms. They sure do screw the hand that feeds them.

Except they aren't a corporation, but way to throw around the buzz words.

Thanks. It's not a corporation in title but in practice it is. Jerry alluded that in his press conference after he fired Fox. The reason why he didn't fire him the year before is because he didn't want to pay 2 coaches at the same time which he would have had too. He mentioned he was running a business and wanted to maximize his investor's stake in the company. I view that as a corporate decision. I think Jerry views the Carolina Panthers as a business where he wants to maximize his profits for himself and his investors which is not unlike a corporation. All the owners are like that I'm sure.

All business wants to maximize profit, that's not something specific to corporations. I don't agree with the tax exempt status of the NFL but I don't confuse that with or use that to alter my opinion of the 32 other organizations that are run independently of that.

Sounds like baseless assumptions. You don't know what happened more than the man on the moon.

Based upon reports from the panther beat writers, shortly after the the sons leaving the franchise, and once again after that season. I retain information like that. Sorry that you've either ignored it, or wasted the brain cells.

Neither of those are my issues.

    • Bad news is Bryce will actually get use a middle of the round pick (9-8) missing any chance to get a QB. Honestly though I think Tep would be ok with that and see it as a reason to resign him. After all that’s the most success Tep can muster in 10 years.
    • Yes.   It's been widely reported Aaron Glenn is an egomaniac and only wants staff who will not challenge him or tip the scales of power in any direction but his.   I'm guessing that has to be one of, if not, the most toxic environments across the four major sport leagues in America.
    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.  I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that would endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either. Trubisky, Minshew, Pickett, Kyle Allen (yes same one).
