2009 is Fox's "Put up or Shut up" season....

Is it John Fox's last season with the Panthers?

With Marty, Holmgren, Shanahan, Gruden, Billeck, and Cowher all sitting on the sidelines, this season is a "ALL IN" for Fox.

Thats a hell of a Super Bowl winning Coach bank to draw from.

With the Panthers never having back to back winning seasons and the huge let down in the playoffs Fox knows he needs to deliver.

One thing is certain, If I was wanting to make a coaching change, 2010 would be the year to do it.

...We will see.

I don't think so. If injuries cause the season to crumble I think he'll be here. If we do get a new coach it will have to be someone who doesn't overhaul the whole system. We've got the talent to go far for a while. I like Marty and Billeck, I think Cowher is a bit overrated. However I'd like Fox to take us to a couple superbowls so I'd be happy to stick with him.

well if we go super bad like 6-10 or less, fox is on the first bus out of town

if we do 7-9 to 10-6 and miss the playoffs i think one more seson better win

If we make the playoffs and do poorly again....one more season better win

If we win the super bowl.....well i guess he is going to be around for a few more years

Fox is the ideal coach for this team and managment loves him. I don't see fox leaving until the team puts together two crummy seasons in a row.

I'd venture a guess that he is safe this year even if the team finished with 3-4 wins. Due to the fact that he turned the 1-15 team around in a two year span.

    • Corbett knows he needs to take a prove it deal and I think he will.  I watched an interview and he was convincingly adamant he wants to stay.  Two different injuries in two years was bad luck.  It's not like it was the same thing.  He knows the game and figures to end his career in a place where he is happy.  You can't really compare how Bryce did with Mays compared to AC.  AC was hurt week 5.  Bryce was on the bench after week 2 and didn't return until week 8. Mays is basically under team control next year as a RFA.  We could offer the right of first refusal for 3m.  I'd offer a 2 year deal which averages a little higher so you can manipulate the cap on his deal.  Additionally, I'd resign Corbett to a team friendly deal.  Many forget he has positional versatility like BC.  Corbett is only one year older, is two inches shorter, about 10 pounds heavier, and has arms that are one inch longer.  Corbett has played LT in college and guard/center in the NFL.  Ideally, bring back all three, but if BC gets big time $$$ AC and CM can battle for center and the other becomes a swing lineman. If we cut bait on Yosh Nijman we may be able to keep all three.  I'd sign up for that in a heartbeat.  
    • As fans, we often exaggerate how bad our team owner is because we are so invested and focused on our team. We don't really see how bad other team owners, like Woody Johnson or Robert Kraft, because we are focused on the Panthers.
