John Fox on offensive line issues


Dpantherman

Recommended Posts

in an interview taken today, john fox talked to reporters after practice:

http://www.panthers.com/news/article-1/Foxhole-Johnson-an-athletic-QB/ec6b04e0-1153-4afc-b2d7-05c7245c1a76

here is one question and answer:

On if it is surprising that the offensive line has struggled considering that the starters are the same as last year:

"I don't know that it's been an issue. When you're 1-3 or 0-3 a week ago, I think a lot of things have been issues. I don't know that singling out the offensive line - and we were able to run well enough to score 20 points - we've just got to continue to improve in all phases. When you throw a game in there like Philadelphia where you're down 31-10 and you get one dimensional, you're not going to look as good pass protecting, and that's true for any team."

interesting..........

He is scared to say the line is playing bad cause the last time he said that Wharton tea bagged him after not showering for three days.He liked to have never got the crust and taste out of his mouth,I think he went to auto-bell and they helped him get it out

Sounds like to me this just another excuse by Fox for his team play. If fox and Davis was to stick with the running game like they should of during the cards playoff game. Then carolina might not be 1-3 right now. Excuses are getting quit old to tell you the truth.:toetap05:

Its like John Fox has a head coach's magic 8 ball or something with things to say to the media. Maybe thats why we get the same recycled garbage every week from him. Why does he even talk to the media? They could just set up a life-sized john fox doll in the stadium, load his memory with like 7 or 8 quotes, and just have someone pull the string when the media asks questions. No fan would know the difference.

    • DeAngelo Williams: 1515 yards (2008) Steven Davis: 1444 yards (2003) Christian McCaffrey: 1387 yards (2019) Chuba Hubbard: 1195 yards (2024) Jonathan Stewart: 1133 yards (2009)   DeAngelo Williams 1515 yards in 2008 are most in Panthers history for a season this was when Double Trouble was at it's height. That year he averaged 94 yards a game. Steven Davis missed 2 games 2003 so he comes in at the most yards per game in a season at 103 yards. Mccaffrey averaged 86 yards a game in his 2019 campaign he also recorded 1005 yards receiving making his season statistically the best in Panthers history for a RB, had the Panthers had a better record he could have been a favorite for MVP. Dowdle currently is averaging 81 yards a game despite only starting 3 games thus far. In the games he has started 206, 183, 130 he's averaging 173 yards. In Green Bay he rushed for 130 despite having a 21 yard run wiped out due to illegal procedure penalty that could of saw a 150 yard day.    Top 5 yards per carry. Dowdle 5:6 (2025) Williams: 5.5 (2008) Stewart: 5.1 (2009) Mccaffrey: 4.8 (2019) Hubbard: 4.7 (2024) If Dowdle continues even close to the pace he's on he's poised to break DeAngelo Williams single season Panther rushing record.       
    • The BY9 situation is classic sunk cost fallacy. We traded premium assets to get him. Every few games he flashes the traits that made him appealing (quick reads, touch, composure) but the macro picture doesnt lie. Hes producing at a bottom-tier level across efficiency metrics in yards per attempt, EPA/play, completion percentage over expected, and explosive plays. Instead of objectively reassessing, the organization continues to justify the investment - new coaches, new systems, new excuses - trying to salvage what was invested. Giving him a 5th year is a self inflicted would.  We need to take our lumps and move on
