I see a lot of people saying “sell the team”, and I’m all for the need to make drastic changes. However, every team has a salary cap, so beyond hiring people to actually run/coach the team, what other influence does the ownership bring? Can it make that big of a difference who owns it?
Very few things could be worse for the Bears than the current ownership. In a very general, broad reason, they just don’t know what they’re doing. They don’t know football, they can’t identify people that do know football, they can’t identify quality GMs, coaches, ect. They’re loyal to people that are bad at their jobs, that can’t run an organization. They’re just…bad at owning a football team, and people are optimistic that a new owner will put football people in charge of the team.
