Does John Fox keep his job if the Panthers finish 7-9?

[Gman was right]

If he finishes 9-7 Im willing to bet he keeps his job wether the panthers make the playoffs or not. Fortunately, there is no way the panthers will win 9 games so he will be shown the door.

[PuntJake]

we will never make 7 wins. with two games against the bucs, we have a shot at the bills but i am still sticking with my preseason 5-11 prediction and with that, fox is gone. honestly, i don't know where the 5th win will come from. i thought we'd be better than we are i mean come on people, IT WAS THE FREAKING REDSKINS!!!! we should have won by 2 touchdowns.

[Cyberjag]

If people continue to fill the stands and if his team still rallies around him, he can go 1-15 and he'll keep his job.

7-9 probably means he's back next year. Go root for the Redskins if you don't like it, Richardson's a patient and loyal man.

[Gman was right]

Richardson knows that he can only be so loyal for so long. He cannot be satisfied with going 7-9 every other year and he knows the fans arent. The object is to win the super bowl. Something that will never happen under Fox/Jake.

Now a days even a 9-7 record would get you fired as a HC. The Chargers fire Marty 2 years ago when he went 14-2 but lost in the first playoff game like carolina did this past playoff year. Fact is bro. Fans are getting tired of seeing this when one year and lose the next We want a coach who can come in and make a big impact on the team and get us to the playoffs year in and year out most of the time. Fox has had his run as panthers HC. But like with any HC. Once their motivation does not work anymore with the players. Then it is time for a change. Fox motivation is not working anymore. The win the panthers got today should of been a blow out by far. But yet we bearly won ir. The only way Fox would keep his job for another year are 2 is go to the playoffs and win a few games. We as fans ain't asking him to win the SB. But prove that you can win back to back seasons for once and go back to the playoffs and win a few.

I completely agree with what you are saying and I hope Fox is shown the door if this team doesnt make the playoffs no matter waht. I just think if he finishes with a winning record Jerry will just be satisfied that since he got us back to back winning records and let him stick around. I see no way that we win 9 games with this schedule though.

You people are crazy. As long as Fox is 5-11 or better, he's keeping his job. Everyone around him on the other hand, well, who knows.

Well it seems the stands today was about 40% empty. That there is a sign of the things to come if the panthers keep losing. Then I bet you next year. The panthers will end up like the lions. Having local blackout games in the area. If the panthers have a bad yea rthis year. Expect Jerry to lose millions of dollars in sales. I bet you that right there is running through the mind of the richerson family. They can't afford to keep fox another year to see if fox can turn it around. It will not happen point blank.

[DDOGG]

Brian Billick want this job. You could hear it in his commentary during the game.

[GRWatcher]

With the PSL's, it'll be very difficult to have a blackout in Charlotte.

It wasnt 40% empty. It was just 50% redskins fans and 50% panther fans and empty seats.

Man I love this team but it is really sad when the announcers say it is sold out but yet it has almost half of redskins fans.

Yeah, its very frustrating!

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

The Skins fans are going to own our stadium every time we play them until we win a Super Bowl and people no longer think "expansion team" when they think of the Panthers. That's just how it is.
