How can ONE injured DT change the whole season.

Losing Davis was pretty tough, too. I imagine Welker wouldn't have been so open over the middle with TD in the area.

I don't know if it would have made a huge difference because welker can take a pounding. But I know he wouldn't have been as prolific, and the run D would have been a little better.

Forget Delhomme for a second. Anyone notice the attitude toward the season changed once Kemoeatu got hurt? That's one guy! Look how many players have been injured for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Stewart Bradley, out for the year

Jamaal Jackson, out for the year

Shawn Andrews, out for the year

Cornelius Ingram, out for the year

Ellis Hobbs, out for the year

Omar Gaither, out for the year

Brian Westbrook, out most of the year

Kevin Curtis, out most of the year

Todd Herrimans, out 6 games

Akeem Jordan out 4 games

Joselio Hanson, out 4 games

Donovan McNabb, Desean Jackson, Jason Peters, Jeremy Maclin, etc... all missing games

Yet the Eagles are 11-4 and the Panthers are 7-8?

BUT BUT BUT NOOO! The Panfurs are the only team that struggles wif injuries every year!

We all know Jake is to blame. Some fans are trying to turn our attention away from Jake so that they can more easily attack Fox and Hurney. Another trend I'm seeing is the idea that Jake will be starting next season, so we should want Fox and Hurney fired. Apparently the 'Fox stuck with Jake too long, so fire him' arguement is losing steam.

LOL, Fox is the one that starts Jake weekly.

Fire Fox.

[pantherj]

I don't think Fox is without blame, and I do think he made a mistake in sticking with Jake for too long. But I don't think he should be fired for that mistake.

[rico6]

Fox single handedly took the postseason away from this team, that's what he should be fired for. Don't get me wrong every one makes mistakes, and they should be entitled to a second chance, but what Fox did this season is inexcusable and he should have his job security in question, but apparently Management see's no issue with Fox so me bitching and complaining does nothing lol.

I've really felt the sting of Fox's terrible mistake. I'm sick that we didn't make the playoffs, when it seems as though we would have with Moore. Even so, I think we're in the clear now that the QB situation has been resolved. And overall Fox is a very good HC imo, and I'd hate to see him leave. But I do ultimately blame him for us not making the the playoffs this season. Let me ask a question to all the fans who want Fox fired. How do you think this team will do next season with Moore at QB? If we make the playoffs will you still want Fox gone?

So Sorry, but Jake hangs over this team like poisonous Mistletoe rotting on a string in the hallway.

This may be the perfect sentence describing Jake this year. I respect him, but what a sh*tfest of a season he had.

Not to mention, Fox is a overall good "coach". Before him we SUCKED. The only problem with him is the whole Delhomme alliance and hopefully with Moore doing so well he will see the light. One thing i'd hate to see is him leaving, and we getting a awful coach that tears a great team apart.

We're getting our wish. The big cat agrees that Fox should return, at least for the 10' season.

[spartan_pantherfan]

The D did struggle early on, like Fiz said going through training camp without pretty much our best players on D and trying to get a new system down was pretty tough, they started out bad but have improved week to week.

Kemo IMO is still better then any DT on the roster currently, but thats only if he comes back 100% which I dont think will happen with him being that big and having that injury.

but yeah Jake starting past week 3 was an awful Idea. ( week 1 really but lets say you have to give him the benefit of the doubt and give him a game or two to turn it around )

well played sir.

Injuries are no excuse for this season.

The sole reason this season can be tossed away is QB play and Coaching.

Philly: Who knows how this game turns out if Jake doens't wet the bed

Dallas: Conservative playcalling in 2nd half, along with Delhomme's inability to complete a pass on third down

Buffalo: Jake Delhomme

NY Jets: Jake Delhomme

The only games I believe we should have lost were: New Orleans, Atlanta, New England, and Miami....and we were in all these games, we were just beaten

you can throw Philly in there if you like, but I still think had we not turned the ball over 6 times we would have been in the game
