Jerry Richardson

[Paa Langfart]

I have heard a lot of you blaming the Panthers problems on JR.  

 

So a serious question.  What can JR do to make the Panthers a better organisation ie - win more games - become what the Steelers used to be ?  And please don't give me the usual lame brained answers like removing the NFL shield from the middle of the field.

All starts at the top.  He has to hire the right people to run the organization.  That's his job.  I don't think he's responsible for this current team yet...but very close.

He can get better personnel in the front office that demands to think for its self and not settle for mediocre coaching..... get coaches that are aggressive and want to do everything possible to win...

[Sam Mills Fan]

Sell the team to a competent owner. I think it's no coincidence that the team's failures really started in earnest as soon as he had his major surgery.

 

Any way you look at it, Jerry Richardson has failed as an owner. He's been the one constant since 1995. No back-to-back winning seasons in 20 years? No playoff wins at all in 10 years? The NFL has passed him by. He still thinks it's the era of Johnny Unitas.

become what the Steelers used to be ?

 

 

 

^^^ that's the problem right there. trying to be like somebody else instead of setting a standard now so someone else can say "become what the Panthers used to be ?" years down the road

Step down.

He needs to realize the NFL is past the Steelers dynasty. He needs to realize the league isn't more important that the Panthers. If he can't realize these things, he doesn't need to be in direct control of the team.

[JawnyBlaze]

Well he can start by communicating with Gettleman and reinvestigating our coaching situation.  Secondly he could get off Goodell and the NFL's dick and stick up for his own team instead of the league.  This includes trivial things like the shield to more impactful things like the lockout stubbornness to standing up for players. 

[WhoAmI?]

We have had only 5 winning seasons to 14 losing seasons. Are you f*cking kidding me? That starts at the top. He wants his GM to always hire a defensive minded coach even if he isn't qualififed. The NFL has past him by and leaving his ass behind.

[cgarsmoker]

We don't need a new owner, we need better fans that have a little respect and basic loyalty to the man that moved mountains to bring a franchise to Charlotte. If it wasn't for Richardson, we'd still be watching Redskins games every Sunday complaining about Dan Snyder.

Step One: Don't listen to any suggestions made by fans who've never so much as run a successful lemonade stand.

He is way too slow on making the appropriate changes, and when he makes changes he doesn't get the best guys. Just somebody who isn't going to make waves and demand a lot of money. He doesn't seem to be as concerned about winning as he is being a nice family organization.

[TheMaulClaw]

Everyone was calling for his head last year.

Step two: recognize the existence of potential head coaches that aren't coordinating defense

I definitely agree on the defensive minded coaches that we always hire and have no successful track record as an NFL head coach.
