Someone needs to do a analysis of an owner’s age and his team’s record. Its got to show the older the owner the worse the record.

Look at Ford and the Lions. Davis and the Raiders. Wilson and the Bills. Adams and the Titans. Jones and the Cowboys. And on and on…

While Pittsburgh’s ‘owner’ is aged, he knows enough to let his kid runs things. The same can’t be said for the Panther’s aged Jerry Richardson who actually fired his sons.

Who’s up for some math?

VY’s win % came on the heels of a good defense, behind a good o-line, & with a dynamic game-changer RB. And they appear to have none of that anymore. VY’s 150 ypg & his negative td/int ratio is not the reason for his win %. Hell Kerry Collins took that same team to a 13-3 record.

It seems 32 GMs all see this the same way. He’s not even good enough to be a backup.

VY’s winning percentage, as well as every QBs’ winning percentage, is strongly influenced by their respective teammates’ performances. Winning percentage alone tells you little about how great or bad a QB is.

At least the owner is capable of seeing his product through the eyes of his customers. There are a few NFL owners whose teams have been miserable almost constantly for many years who refuse to invest in their teams to make them better.

Mike Munchak wouldn’t be hired by most teams as a position coach and Adams gave him the HC job, probably because he was the cheapest option possible. And now he’s surprised the team isn’t doing well?

Did he think, “Munchak’s my HC now, Superbowl here we come!”

You get what you pay for.

I wonder if ma McCaskey will ever get frustrated enough to just turn it off? We should be so lucky.

I didn’t realize Bud Adams was coherent enough to operate a TV.

Yeah, you missed the memo. VY has a .620 winning percentage as an NFL starter.

Hahaha, the new Al Davis. They had a good coach but that’s what happens when ownership tries to coach and manage personnel! Good luck getting a decent coach with that ownership!

“They need to draft better, period. Their O-line is a mess.”
Hey fm31970, those guys are all back-ups. During the game they explained many times how the Titans’ line is patchwork due to 4 out of 5 starters being on IR. Not all on coaches and GM.

I’m a Packer fan – and I got tired of it too. They shoulda TRIED to make it a game.

Hey, here’s an idea. Maybe if you stop throwing people under the bus, they’ll want to go out and bust their ass for you. I find it beyond mortifying that the owner of my favorite team apparently has no idea why they are so terrible. No quality free agent or coach will ever want to come near Tennessee until Bud Adams is dead. Learn to live with it, Nashville.

Should have kept VY, a proven winner. Locker is terrible.

Hey Bud, Houston wants its history back. I do not know why the NFL let you take the hsitory of Houston with you when you went to Tennessee but they keep the Browns history in Cleveland. That is some bull, Budd. Do you hear me Roger?

Why did you not attend the game like a real owner? If you did would you have flipped the bird?

I think Woody Johnson should “check with his people” as well.

I got tired of watching the Giants lose, and I turned off the TV before halftime. Turned it on for a minute in the 4th quarter, saw the score, and turned the TV back off.
