John Mara and Woody Johnson watching their teams suck but only care about making money

John Mara and Woody Johnson: Owners of Struggling Teams Focused on Profit Amid Struggles As the NFL season continues, two of the league's most prominent team owners, John Mara of the New York Giants and Woody Johnson of the New York Jets, find themselves at the center of growing frustration from fans and pundits alike. While both franchises have struggled in recent years, a common theme emerging is that their owners seem more invested in profit than in the on-field success of their teams.


John Mara, the co-owner of the Giants, has long been criticized for a lack of accountability and failure to make significant changes despite the team’s underperformance. After a once-glorious era, the Giants have seen a sharp decline in recent seasons, and yet, their leadership has 

shown little willingness to make bold moves. Fans argue that Mara’s focus is more on the brand, corporate sponsorships, and the lucrative revenue from the team's long-standing legacy than on building a competitive squad. 

Many question whether the organization truly values winning, or if it’s content with the steady flow of money from the lucrative stadium deal and corporate partnerships.  

Similarly, Woody Johnson’s ownership of the New York Jets has been marked by inconsistency and underachievement. Despite being one of the wealthiest team owners in the NFL, Johnson has faced ongoing criticism for his failure to foster a winning culture. 

Jets fans have been frustrated by management's lack of decisive action to improve the roster, with ownership seemingly focused more on maintaining financial growth and expanding their global brand.  

For both Mara and Johnson, the bottom line often seems to come before success on the field. While the teams continue to flounder, the owners’ financial interests are increasingly seen as a more significant priority. 

Fans are left wondering when, or if, these owners will make the necessary changes to rebuild their teams into perennial contenders rather than just cash cows.
