Fox broadcaster Terry Bradshaw said today that if Carolina QB Jake Delhomme doesn't improve, both he and head coach John Fox will be out of jobs and former Steelers coach Bill Cowher could be at the helm of the Panthers.

I don't think Cowher, if he were to become our coach (or anyone else's head coach for that matter), is a 'miracle worker', but I guarantee you he would bring some 'tude' that is sorely lacking here, and hasn't been seen since the '03 season. The fit would be a good one, I believe, given how he and his family live in NC, and he would have a lot to work with here. I like Fox, but he just doesn't seem to have that 'something' that other successful coaches have in getting the best out of their players when they need it the most. We play the second toughest scedule in the league this year, and we went 12-4 last year against a less than stellar schedule (NFC North, AFC West). If the team can't turn this around, and soon, I think a coaching change should be looked at after the season. 8 years is quite a tenure with an NFL team nowdays. In Fox's case, that means with the same QB and playmakers for most of that time. Then again, it took Cowher 14 years (I believe) before he won a SB, but his teams were competitive and in playoff contention for most of them. We have yet to put 2 good seasons together.

God I hope not. Im not sure why people think Cowher is the second coming of Jesus Christ. He won 1 superbowl in 15 years. His teams identity was one of great defense. That great defense was, and still is courtesy of Dick LeBeau. I think hiring Cowher would be a huge mistake and would be Seifert v2

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
