Fisher wears a Colts jersey "to feel like a winner"

The Titans and Colts are division rivals, so this would indeed be the equivalent of John Fox putting on a Saints or Falcons jersey "to look like a winner".

If the Panthers were 0-6 at this point in the season after starting 10-0 and finishing 13-3 last season, I would hope that Fox would have the balls to do something like that... mind you, he doesn't and wouldn't, but if the Titans aren't embarrassed already after this start, then maybe seeing their coach rub their noses in it will help. To steal the premise of a line from Fast & Furious, "Suck it up. This ain't the boy scouts."

To steal the premise of a discussion from Colin Cowherd, "Being the head coach isn't about the X's and O's. It's about motivating your players."

I'm sure there are quite a few people on here that disagree with Fisher doing this. Me, personally, I love it. Keep your candy ass kid gloves. I'll take the tough love approach every time.

I'd love to see Zorn wear a Giants jersey and say that.

Which brings up a salient point.

To get away with something like this, you'd have to have some clout as a head coach. Zorn would be crucified because he's never accomplished anything as a head coach that would give him enough respectability to pull off such a stunt.

And yeah, personality matters too. This isn't the kind of thing I could ever see Fox pulling. Given Fox's usual MO, I seriously doubt this would work for him.

But what about Fisher?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      I mean as far as his size goes it's all over his tape bouncing up and down on his toes in and around the pocket trying to see the field and defenses know this as well as we do but if folks here want to live in never never land and pretend it's not a thing that's their prerogative. Even our head coach has made it a key focal point to get his footwork under control. But it's still something Bryce is going to be tested on early and often no matter how many keystrokes anyone here commits to the narrative it isn't an issue.

      It speaks volumes that when asked to define a clear performance threshold the responses instead fixate on Bryce's size. It reinforces what’s been clear for a while now... that for some, it has never been nor will it ever be about production. Any struggles will always be chalked up to his frame, and any strong play will be downplayed or disqualified via highly mobile goalposts.

      It is hard not to feel hopeless. There is some hope buried behind a hopeless wall but the hopeless wall is thick.  Going off of the last two games I don’t see how we win.  Team looked utterly defeated on Thursday, kinda like the Leafs did when the Panthers tied the series 2-2, and we all know how that ended.  I hope for the best. I will at least turn on the game for a little while.
