Not really a surprise. Bud is paying Vince alot of money and was the one who made the final call to draft him. Truth is, Fisher has never wanted Vince and only played him his rookie year after Collins got injured after starting 0-3. Fisher also did not hesitate to pull Vince after 1 half of bad football in 08, but wont pull Collins after 6 weeks of sucking. The double standard has been noticed by the entire sportsworld.

You're joking right? Vince hasn't even been mentally stable. Last year he was talking about killing himself. How can you have someone in the game playing with that going on in someone's head. Jeff was looking out for him and trying to get him help. If you are trying to pull the race card remember how much Jeff loved Steve McNair. I would love for you to pull up a old article where it says Jeff didn't want Vince.

I really hate when owners involve themselves in coaching decisions.

Funny thing though, I actually kind of agree with Adams here. The Titans are going nowhere so given that they'll need to make a decision on Young at some point, why not try him?

The answer, most likely, is the same answer as the one regarding Fox and Delhomme. A coach in "save my job" mode isn't interested in the future. He wants the best established player, and at this juncture that's still Collins.

Yeah it's actually a shame you don't get Jeff Fisher announcing he was going to play Young to see where he's at as this season is a loss.

Or Fox going with Moore as Jake has serious problems.

Would reflect better on the HC IMHO.

There was an interesting revelation in the radio hissy fit recently thrown by the wife of Floyd Reese.

She stated that on two previous occasions, Adams was set to fire Jeff Fisher. It was Floyd who saved Fisher's job both times, a kindness Fisher repaid by forcing Reese out in a power struggle.

If Adams goes down that path again, will anyone save Fisher this time?

Fisher is the only retread I could conceivably be talked into supporting as a Fox replacement.

But in the end, I'd probably still say no.

I've never been a fan of Fisher.

He has been at it a long time he looks burned out, if he were to replace Fox I hope its after a couple years off and some time spent on the beach.

      Cam Newton says being "erased" by panthers has hurt his feelings..

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Sports are a different animal. It's gladiator poo. You wouldn't go out and put the uniform on of the best burger maker in your neighborhood either. So, when we watch these athletes being amazing and giving their all, it is for more than just a check. The guys that are truly driven and love these games, they are doing it for many more reasons than the money. Boiling it down to a simple transactional thing is simplistic, at best. So, yeah, I can understand how Cam can feel jilted when other great Panthers are trotted out and honored by the organization and he isn't. Especially considering he is overwhelmingly the best QB to have ever played for us and literally put this franchise into the national spotlight because of the player he was, the things he accomplished and the personality that he is. So....yeah, I would be upset about that too if I were in his shoes. The money, that the business side. That other poo, that's personal.

      We have different people in place to do that now, but people don't seem to recognize that. I don't much care where they come from but this taking the third best QB top five in the draft over valuation because of the position, yeah we don't need to participate in that.  I build up an imaginary scenario where we can trade out of that position not too far back and get the defensive stud we want while having ammo to trade back into the late 1st if a QB falls. That we want.

      The Panthers really shouldn't be planning to bring back Dalton for a starting salary. It would 100% be a desparation move by the front office. He's only good for 3-5 games at a time. Same with Theilen. He shouldn't factor in the Panthers' plans going forward. If anything, do him a solid and trade him in the off season - if he's still on contract.
