Justin Herbert didn’t play a single snap in the Los Angeles Chargers preseason but earned high praise from new coach Jim Harbaugh for his leadership prowess in an unexpected dilemma Friday. According to Harbaugh, Herbert was one of 11 or 12 Chargers stuck in a hotel elevator in Dallas ahead of the Chargers’ third preseason game.

“You get in those situations, and it’s a test of wills,” Harbaugh said Saturday after the Chargers defeated the Dallas Cowboys. “I was proud of each of the guys and the two women that were on that elevator. That’s a win. You feel good about yourself. You were challenged. It was a test of will, and you pull it down, or pull it in.”

Among the people stuck in the elevator was Jeri Fouts, the wife of Hall of Famer Dan Fouts. The group was trapped without air conditioning for two hours before being rescued by Dallas Fire-Rescue.

They might not know that five of the last six owners to buy (rather than inherit) a team make up the bottom five in win percentage (they do — the lone exception is the Buffalo Bills’ Terry Pegula).

Some of these ownership situations are difficult to evaluate for reasons such as owners allowing their offspring to operate their teams. I’ve used simple criteria in ranking owners from worst to best win rates below. For our purposes, wins and losses are counted for owners after the NFL has approved their purchases; after an owner…
