I didn't know Scott Fowler wrote a book on the Panthers...

http://books.google.com/books?id=P8nnm4ks_i0C&lpg=PP17&ots=OzoS-xduKj&dq=john%20fox%20interviews%202003%20panthers&pg=PA54#v=onepage&q=john%20fox%20interviews%202003%20panthers&f=false

I find Chapter 4 "John Fox. It is what it is" pretty interesting.

Enjoy guys if you haven't seen this book

honestly it's a bunch of stories divided by chapters, no flow or direction but it's all we have as fans. He took advantage of what he had with access to the players and used it to make a book but truth be told a much better piece of work could have been done by others with similar access.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By Ricky Spanish · Posted

      People comparing this deal to CMC, Williams, or Stewart is laughable, and I'll break the numbers down as to why: In 2020 We made CMC the highest paid RB ever. We gave him a $64 million over 4 years with $38 million guaranteed. That's $16 million on average. In 2011 we extended Williams, then in 2012 we extended Stewart. These extensions were 12 and 13 years ago: Williams - 5 years, $43 Million, $25 Million Guaranteed, Average of $8.6 Million per year Stewart - 5 years, $36 Million, $23 Million Guaranteed, Average of $7.3 Million per year Let me do the math for you: The Salary Cap in 2020 when we Signed CMC was $198.2 Million. CMC accounted for 8% of our total cap that season. The Salary Cap in 2012, when we had both Williams and Stewart under contract, was $120.6 Million. Those two combined to take up 13.1% of our total cap that season. Without the cap going up next season (and it will) Chuba is taking up 3.2% of our total cap. That's it. Not only are we paying Chuba HALF of what we were paying CMC per year, and LESS than what we paid Williams over a decade ago, shows how much less significant the contract extension is compared to those other moves. I really am not following how people are calling this contract a "big" money contract on a running back and a waste of cap space. This is a solid starting RB contract in the modern NFL.

      Yeah Brown was shown to be a lot more important even in his second year

      Brian Burns Revenge Game

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      I remember some of those poor showings by Peppers but even in those times I don't feel like Brian Burns would be anywhere close to his level. Peppers was better than Burns in every way. I've never seen Burns even once show that he could take an entire game over and severely affect the outcome and for the money he wanted I sort of expect him to have that Peppers ability. I know our defense is weak now but I'm still glad he is gone and so happy we didn't pay him that monstrous contract he wanted.
