Last time Fox had a competent QB...

[bLACKpANTHER]

a legit ground game and a Top 10 Defense- we went to the Superbowl..

2003 - Delhomme/Smith/Moose, Davis/Foster & #8D

2005 - Delhomme/Smith, Davis/Foster/Goings all injured & #3D

2008 - Delhomme/Sh!t, Double Trouble & #18D

we NOW have Matt Moore (with more experience), one of the best rushing attacks in the NFL (if not #1) and a Top 10 Defense..

if we make a #2 WR the main focus of this offseason, resign key players and add another DT/DE- we are definitely Superbowl contenders.. i think i am in the camp of lets keep Fox for one last go round..

Cowher will still be there waiting for us next year- for those of you wanting him.. he basically our b!tch begging us to hire him.. we know he wants to be here- so we have all the leverage in our favor when it comes to Cowher..

(with Cowher out of the question) i am in the camp of lets keep Fox for one last go round..

clean house..... rebuild.......

Well if we get half as lucky as we did in 2003 we might have a shot..

Still say if we go and win Superbowl 45 Fox can write his own contract pretty much and will stay in Carolina. I mean why leave a winning team to rebuild another? He really can't blame JR for not giving him a new contract this year, can he? With a potential lock out in 2011. This is just smart business on JRs part and if Fox can't see that then maybe he does need to leave.

Last 3 games saved Fox or did enough to keep the wolves at bay

I'm certain that Fox is smart enough to understand that.

So you're naturally assuming Matt Moore will start next year under Fox....

The Cats flew under the radar in 03, Won most games by the skin of their pants and choked on a kick off to spit it all back out!

Don't take that the wrong way, I loved that Panthers Team, Loved watching that season! I still had football drinking buddies and lots of crap talking all week.

For me a season like that will probably never be repeated, even if we do win a superbowl.

However, In 03 Everyone else in the league was like "who are these guys"

Thats no longer the case, teams have been prepping for Fox style ball for awhile now.

The truth is this last team was better than the 03 Cats.

If the Best chance players and the play calling had been anything like the last 5 games, even with injuries for the full season.

That team had a shot at least!

Hopefully they don't "fix" too much for next year!

Well ALL IMHO that is :idea:
