So... Fox...

So, how many people think Fox is still going to be fired?

Barring a monumental collapse (aka, losing just about every one of our remaining games) I do not see Fox or Hurney going anywhere this season. I think it will take 2 consecutive losing seasons for that...

coaches have been fired after playoff seasons.....Fox's method of playing in the NFL is outdated. A move should be made regardless of what occurs. ''A new QB should start next year is a critieria of Fox stays.

If Fox isn't gone then I really think that he will be here for as long as he wants. If this season (after a 12-4 season last year) combined with the fact that he has NEVER tried to address the QB position aren't enough to get a new coach then nothing is.

This team would be the best team in the NFC if we had a QB...there is no doubt in my mind. It sucks that Fox buried himself with Jake but that is the way it goes sometimes. Now...I am willing to reconsider my position if Fox is willing to part with Jake. If he isn't then he needs to go.

Our remaining schedule probably opens the door for 3 more wins (maybe 4 if NO mails it in for the last game of the season). That puts us at 7-9 or 8-8. We lost to one of the worst teams in the league at home (the Bills), and we blew a lead against NO. You can't have games like that every year (which we do) and still keep your job.

Our remaining schedule is:

Miami

NYJ

Tampa

NE

Minn

NYG

NO

I think that if we play how we have been playing then we could win our next 3. But we are probably going to end the season either 1-3 or 0-4. I think that the fact that we end the season with 3 or 4 losses in a row will seal John Fox's fate.

I always hope we make the playoffs but ownership needs to see that we are a SB caliber team at every position except for one and its not acceptable.

I really think we'll have another year of Fox/Hurney.

I think it is possible that we may see a different QB next year, but not if Jake continues to 'return to form.' We may end up with a drafting of a young QB in the 2nd round though to groom for the future... even though that is rarely Fox's way.

    • I admit, i drafted Cam Skattebo strictly on the name
    • It's a good way to end up on the wrong side of one.
    • Did not participate:  CB Jaycee Horn (hip), LG Damien Lewis (illness/ankle), OLB Cam Gill (illness), RT Taylor Moton (knee), ILB Josey Jewell (head/neck/quad), OLB Jadeveon Clowney (elbow/knee), CB Chau Smith-Wade (illness/chest) Limited participation:  OLB Amare Barno (knee), RB Chuba Hubbard (knee), WR Xavier Legette (hip/wrist), WR Adam Thielen (hamstring), TE Tommy Tremble (shoulder/back), DE A’Shawn Robinson (knee), OLB DJ Wonnum (shoulder/knee)   Full participation: QB Bryce Young (hamstring), C Cade Mays (illness) OT Ikem Ekwonu (shoulder/illness)   details below The Carolina Panthers are banged up heading into the final two games of the season. The team practiced Thursday without five starters, including cornerback Jaycee Horn (hip). Horn, right tackle Taylor Moton (knee), outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (elbow/knee), and inside linebacker Josey Jewell (head/neck/quad) were seen on the practice field, but didn’t take part in team drills. Left guard Damien Lewis (illness/ankle) and nickel corner Chau Smith-Wade (illness/chest) were also held out of the workout. If Horn were to miss the Week 17 battle with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Panthers would probably need to rely on Maiden, North Carolina, native Caleb Farley, among others, to make up for the loss. Horn’s status for the game is in question after sitting out the second workout of the week. Moton and Lewis, if they were to miss the game against Tampa Bay on Sunday, would likely be replaced by Brady Christensen and Chandler Zavala, respectively. Smith-Wade, if sidelined for the game, would probably be replaced by veteran Dane Jackson. The Panthers are particularly light on inside and outside linebacker depth, so Clowney and Jewell will be worth monitoring on Friday. The team signed linebacker Chandler Wooten on Tuesday to serve as insurance for Jewell, while second-year outside linebacker DJ Johnson would likely get the call to replace Clowney if needed.
