Has JR Alienated the Panther Fanbase?

Given the roster going into the 2010 season and the post-season admission by JR that he wanted a youth movement and he thought he'd force Fox to coach a youth movement; the debacle of a presser; his rather insolent manner in handling the CBA machinations and his never-ending antagonistic, smart-ass relationship with the press...

Has he alienated the Panther fanbase or has the curtain hiding the real Oz just come crashing down and now all can see him for what he really is- just another big businessman who couldn't care less about the fans filling his stadium.

JR could have made all the roster cuts he made in 2010 and Carolina could have been MUCH MUCH more competitive with a different coach and QB.

JR screwed up by not firing Fox and letting him coach in 10.....JR hasn't screwed up enough to hold that one move against him.

I swear it's like short term sacrifice for long term gain is a totally foreign concept around here.

He gambled to some extent and lost, as a result we're still much better off as a result. We'll have plenty of money when the CBA is reached and we now have a young core with actual game time experience.

Did I like going 2-14 and being damn near unwatchable at times? No, but the future is bright friends and if you want to blame JR for that, then you have my blessing.

Personally I'm thankful to have one of the most influential and revered owners in the league and to a larger extent in professional sports.

      It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).

      Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
