The team after Jerry

In light of the comments released yesterday from Jerry:

Carolina Panthers Owner/Founder Jerry Richardson: “It has always been my desire that the Carolinas would be the home of our Panthers. Nothing has changed. As someone who was born in North Carolina and lived much of my life in South Carolina, I hope that there would be no doubts about my personal devotion to the Carolinas.”

What happens after Jerry?

I for one would love to see a Green Bay scenerio where the team goes public and sold to fans. After all, isn't there something to the tune of 65,000 PSL owners, who own said seats for life?? Anyone have any ideas of who would be next in line? One of his sons? Partners? Public?

I know he wants the team to stay in the Carolina, but the question is what about his predecessors? If they went public, I'm in....

What say you?

Not sure but I think this franchise and team will be much more successful under new ownership. We can sit here and blame every player and coach that doesn't work out but at some point the finger must be pointed at the person putting these guys in place.

Well, it's scientifically proven the best franchises are ran by the fans.

What if he work for him? And he writes checks for us? Should we shy away from criticizing him and take it out on another of his employees?

The reason the Panthers are so profitable and valuable is because they own their stadium free and clear. This is why the Panthers are one of the top 15 most valuable franchises.

Despite the fact JR would never leave the Carolina's - you would never move out of a house that is paid for to be a tenant elsewhere. The PSL deal he pulled of was epic and fans would never support this scenario again.

I paid thousands for the right to buy seats already. Why would I pay thousands more to gain nothing?

As an alternative to losing the thousands that you already paid? I understand that the team going public will likely never happen. But for folks like yourself who have already invested a considerable amount, wouldn't it at least behoove you to consider that over just losing it all?

In the end, I'm just hoping the new generation respects JR's wishes for the team to stay in Carolina.

Not me. Given the amount of $$ I have donated to this organization and the mediocre product they have provided for 17 years I wouldn't think twice about walking away if they asked for more $$.

My PSLs are listed at $15k total. No way in hell I even consider that.

Give me 2 years of playoff success and I might start to think about it.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
