Fox is our long term coach!!

I still dont think Fox and his staff are able to get the most out of the Panthers. I'd take Cowher over Fox in a heartbeat. Fox seems to be a very nice guy and all his players love him but I dont think he can fire a team up or get the most out of "his" players. The team has played 2 very good games over the past couple of weeks but we all know mistakes and questionable playcalling were there, and this team can lay a complete egg on any given weekend.

I have to admit, I was on the fireFox bandwagon, but I can see I was wrong. One thing I did not like about fox is, he never changes his coaching style. His style works if you have the players for it, if you do not you tank. The great coaches in the NFL can change up and win without players they need to run the style they are most comfortable with.

I was very impressed with how agressive he was in the off season. He went out and got players who fit his style of coaching. I knew this year would be a big turn around, but I really did not expect this good of a year. I would be happy to keep him around for a while. I think the few seasons we had missing the playoffs actually made him a better coach. He has learned what he has to do to win.

Sorry for ever doubting you Foxie. GO PANTHERS!!!

John Fox is a great coach do not get me wrong but is a he a long term coach?? Im not really sure, matt hurney and him have made some costly mistakes over the year, they were on the hot seat this year and have definitely pulled through in my eyes but what does that mean if they do not do much next year? Does Big Cat have to put them on the hot seat every year? I rather have a consistent coach then an up and down coach, the panthers can definitely look like superbowl contenders one week and then duds the next week... We'll take it game by game...

Every team is capable of laying an egg.

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
