Jerry Richardson: "I have not thought about Jim Harbaugh as a head coach"


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

I just wanted to point something out again that I noted at the time.

Jerry never considered bringing in Jim Harbaugh. Never called him, texted (ha ha), contacted.

At the time I said, "Why not fly him in for a day at the cost of a few grand. Any businessman knows you don't limit your options." If we had evaluated him and said no I would have no problems.

I can find the thread if you need proof.

Bad business decisions always come to light.

Oh and PS: Can anyone find the JR press conference where he says this? All of them seem to have been expunged from the internet.

I'm tired of being right.

Yeah let us ignore how much we were blame Jimmy C and Fox for the reality of our team last season and now let's turn on our new QB and head coach...Damn some of u Panther fans are funny.

The thread is correct. If Rivera does not end up being a top notch HC & Harbaugh does...this thread matters a lot! He is simply pointing out the facts. I remember it to, b/c I really liked Harbaugh at Standford & knew he would be great in the NFL. There's still time to be wrong either way, but that fact the JR ignored him "is what it is". :-)

Jimmy C sure. One of the worst quarterbacks to ever play in the NFL.

Fox? He wasn't the cause of our problems. Lame duck maybe.

Look up to that box in the West Endzone if you want to see where the responsibility lies...

Wish I had your insight...

    • Jones was brought in to compete with AR but Steichen was allowed to be real and say AR isnt ready and may never be. It's not a bad thing to acknowledge the reality a lot of these high QB draft picks don't make it as NFL franchise QBs. It's not a knock on Bryce, Stroud or AR. It's just the NFL.  Ive been insistent we needed more than Dalton. Other than the Raiders game, he was horrible. Plummer. Why bother. It's like we put the minimal amount of effort to a position that's actually pretty damned significant. Hell, look at Nick Foles. Backup QB wins the damn SB. Also, how many times have we seen a backup come in and never relinquish the job. Brady was Bledsoe's backup, and an injury launched a career that led to 7 SB rings.  There were guys available that were better than Dalton. We could and should have done more for the betterment of the team. If we had brought in Howell instead of Dalton, and Bryce played like he has until now, then Howell went in and started lighting it up, we would be able to say with certainty that the problems are Bryce problems because this guy can do it but Bryce can't. Dalton has already shown us he's not really capable of a lot. Maybe he surprises us, but I don't have high hopes of HQ QB play.  I don't care who the QB is. Bryce, AR, Jameis, some off world clone of Cam we found in a time capsule next to JR'S pool. Just be real and honest in all QB evaluations and may the best QB win the job. Do what's best for the Panthers, not just any one player.   
    • Next week it’s “they’re playing the way they have to play on offense with Andy Dalton at QB”
    • You need a good sense of humor to call that funny. But I was lamenting that the other day. We are winning some games with that approach. Took us two and a half years to get back to where we started from.
