The Packers have a board of directors counting over 40 people. They elect a seven-member committee to run the operations.
The committee has direction over "corporate management, approves major capital expenditures, establishes broad policy and monitors management’s performance in conducting the business and affairs of the corporation." (source - http://www.packers.com/team/executive-committee.html)
The election of the committee and occasional circulation of board members can lead to new direction and holding people accountable for underperforming.
The Bengals have had a single majority owner who makes all the personnel decisions and seems to rarely hold employees accountable.
It's a mess...that's for sure. Normal market forces don't apply to the NFL with revenue sharing. In a normal business you put out a bad product and you go out of business.
Really what subsidized industry does good? It encourages complacency to some.
