Let's see how crazy John Fox is...

you mean stupid.

Godfrey will get his job back.....b/c Fox doesn't care about putting the best players on the field to win. He believes he should put his guys on the field and they should simply execute better.

I think it's more interesting that there's a story about it on Panthers.com

Martin Maximizes Moment

Printing this story essentially acknowledges that Martin has done more than Godfrey in just a few games.

Groundwork for change perhaps?

I didn't believe the team would actually take the step of putting both back at their natural positions, but between this story and Gantt's piece, I'm now wondering.

It would make more sense to start Martin. Since it's pretty doubtful that we'll be making the playoffs this year, the best thing to do would be to let him remain as the starter for the remaining 6 games to let him have some experience. Godfrey hasn't really proven himself as a starter at free safety, and Martin already made some great plays.

Martin or Godfrey: Who will it be?

Free safety Charles Godfrey, who's missed four games with a sprained ankle, was back at practice Wednesday. He said he alternated taking snaps with rookie Sherrod Martin -- his replacement during that time -- with the first team.

Godfrey didn't know if he'd play Sunday against the Jets, or if he'd get his starting job back from Martin, who has three interceptions in the four games he's played in Godfrey's spot.

"I can't tell you that," said Godfrey, who doesn't have an interception this season and had one last year as a rookie. "You never know."

Godfrey said the ankle is feeling much better.

"I was making breaks I haven't been making the last three or four years," said Godfrey. "Who knows how it will feel tomorrow or after that."

Coach John Fox didn't shed much light on who will be the starter when Godfrey is completely healthy.

"The guy has to get back in, get re-acclimated to the defense," Fox said. "Then you make a decision."

So...no Godfrey to nickle it seems. And..."THEN you make a decision", Fox? Wow...just wow.

      Carolina may not "be sold" on young (per athletic)

      We have some divisional games and also Dallas, who may have a worse QB situation. We are also considerably higher in SOS so we lose most tie breakers. Even if Bryce started stinking it up, we would likely just switch back to Dalton. I agree on most of this but Arizona is a REALLY bad matchup for us. A bruising running game and very mobile QB. That is perfectly made to march all over our defense. This is one of the tighest races for the bottom I have seen in a while.

      Um….the Jets have almost an identical history to the Panthers. In fact no other team comes close, except maybe the Jaguars. The main difference is they lose the championship game to go to a second SB while the Panthers won’t but then lost the Super Bowl… But W/L are closer than any other franchise etc.  If we want to talk king of the shitpile since 1995, I’d look at Lions or Browns or Raiders but the Panthers are so close to them in a lot of ways with the track record of the past six years you’d really be arguing semantics at that point all things considered. I would consider the Panthers to have a near bad existence headed to bad existence. It’s just comical franchises mentioned awful are literally the closest team comparatively speaking to the Panthers lol Some of you really think this team was better than it actually was…never back to back winning seasons, one of the worst W/L teams since 1995 (bottom 5 I believe), …all due the Tepper effect. We suck so bad we remember slightly below average as glory days lol

      This 2025 class has some good bones in the mid rounds but it’s one of the worst top of classes I’ve seen in history. It gives me some 2013 vibes. McMillan and Graham are solid 1sts but man, these others being floated as top-10… I don’t think they’d go until the late teens/beyond if they were in the last few drafts. I.E I'm not taking these guys like Scourton or Mykel over Verse or Latu.  Last year's OTs and WRs would all be going ahead of the majority of this class.  Throw Bowers in this class, dare I'd say he'd be 1 on the big board.
