An Attitude Change

Look at the Jets. Basically the same team, Favre out, Sanchez in. Other than that it is the same team. What changed? The Coach! A coach with attitude and a fire for winning at any cost. One man completely changed the team. And yet when we change our DC we look exactly the same or worse at times.

But I will say Fox did not look happy after yesterdays loss. He actually looked pissed, lips were tight and he was walking fast for him. Do you think a change will really happen or will it be the same "it is what it is" attitude? I haven't seen the post game interview yet, to know if he is pissed. Anybody have a link to it?

Someone is going to have to get angry and get to work.

At best, we look like an average team, shooting for 8-8. At worst, we look hapless. The offense is nowhere as strong as last year and the defense looks mushy.

Don't even get me started on our special teams. Let's just say that they must take the short team bus to the games.

But if this game doesn't light a fire under them, then I don't know what will.

It is on NFL.com under videos.

This week, it's "There are no cupcakes in this league."

Call me crazy but this team reminds me of the team the Bucs traded for Gruden so he could kick them in the A$$ and get them to the big dance. That's exactly what we need as we do have a lot of talent I just think Fox's message has finally stop working the players are just not responding to it anymore. Gruden could be brought in just kinda to motivate this team and just use the same O scheme and let him work on this Cover 2. Lets face it I don't think we could get much worse.

and drafting a fine QB with their first round pick...oh, wait.

This is one of the most disappointing thing I have noticed about our team. Remember a few years back when Jenkins and Peppers were jaw jacking about how our D-line was better than Tampa's? Or remember our first season when Del Rio was our DC? During those years our defense would come out and dominate....They would knock you down, spank your ass, and kick your dog as they walked away. Back then John Fox was a hungry HC that took over this team and said he wasn't taking any crap from players that don't perform. Back then we won some and lost some but at least we could see the emotion and heart in the way we played.

I remember when Fox/Del Rio was riding Deon Grants ass all week long and he responded by coming out in the Minnesota game and had 3 or 4 picks (that was in the Randy ratio days).

Somewhere along the way.....Coach Fox has become complacent and lost his edge. Our defense is supposed to beat you up - instead we find ourselves getting pummeled on Sunday. Our team looks about as inspired as a wet wash cloth and there is good old Coach Foxy, standing on the sideline, chewing his gum, and clapping his hands like a wind up monkey.

He's been here too long. It's around this point in the tenure of long-running coaches where they lose their fire and need to step away for a year or two. He needs a change of scenery and we need a new coach. I think there's only one reasonable solution to this....

      Bryce Young Work Ethic

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      It absolutely is on him for doing it and I'd wager he used a good bit of that psychology major to help him through interviews because he could read people better than most. The Panthers should have recognized it for what it was, hell, we all did, but you can't absolve him just because everyone else does it.    38 Million guaranteed.

      Week 10 opponent - NY Giants

      By Mage · Posted

      No Ikem vs the best pass rushing team in the NFL?  With no pocket for Bryce to step in to because of arguably the best interior DL in the NFL, Dexter Lawrence? Giants win comfortably IMO.  Look at how hype the Panthers were to win last week.  That was enough for them. The Panthers have struggled against mobile QBs this year too.  Guys who can extend the play.  Bo Nix, Marcus Mariota, Caleb Williams.  Panthers have struggled against all QBs this year to be honest, but those guys in particular did the best statistically.  Expect a big game from Danny Dimes, Nabers, and Tyrone.

      And where did anyone say they were? I’m saying that’s where the comp comes from. I agree they are different. No two QBs are the same even that Nebraska QB is different than Mahomes no matter how hard he tries…
