John Fox had Peppers, 89, Gross, Dan Morgan, Beason, Mike Rucker, Kris Jenkins, TD, a steady kicker, an All-Pro punter, two Pro Bowl RBs and dude missed the playoffs 6 out of 9 years

You say that like he had them all 9 years together

Fox wouldn’t have drafted Cam. He’d have taken Dareus. 

I bet Fox would rather go 0-16 his way and get fired than start a rookie Cam Newton in 2011.  Maybe I'm getting my events mixed up here but iirc he brought in Brian St. Pierre and started him on like a week's prep against the Ravens to give Hurney the finger over drafting Clausen against his wishes.

I'd give it to Rivera over Fox by a hair tbh.  His Super Bowl loss was way worse and he only took us to one conference title game but getting to go to the playoffs three years in a row including the monster run in 2015 was such a breath of fresh air. 

But yeah in general they're the exact same style of coach with Rivera being modestly more flexible.  Which isn't saying much admittedly.

According to the Huddle, the best Panthers coach is the next coach lol. Speaks volume of how sucky our previous coaches have been. I will admit that our coaches (Fox/Rivera) have at least taken us to the Super Bowl, consistency was the problem. If Rhule doesn't take us to a Super Bowl, he sucks more than Fox and Rivera. 

The only time Rhule is taking anyone to a super bowl is if he buys a group ticket package.

Splitting hairs. 

But I have Ron on top just because I think he was the best human of the lot.    It’s probably a tie in reality of Fox and Rivera.  Then Capers.  Rhule and Seifert presently battling over pecking order.  Not fair to really even mention Rhule though

I agree with most of this. I think Rhule is on par with a Hue Jackson type.

      Canales' O - Year 2

      By strato · Posted

      Tell me something I don’t know. I said right there in what you quoted I wasn’t optimistic. I said I could still be hopeful. Which ain’t the same but will have to do.  I have optimism regarding more compartmentalization aspects of the team. Some players. The good draft we had is cause for optimism. Maybe that Tepper is actually being less harmful. Maybe.  I had some for Canales but his meter is about 50% right now with me.  Etc

      Got a little more juice in us this period. Gotta get these chances to start falling. Ducks and us keep getting these chippies that are missing. First team to start banging these in and I think the floodgates open.

      S Fowler Coker in, Legette out as wr2

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      The things that make people give up on him is that he is getting worse in terms of simple football things and he isn't improving on much in terms of being a WR. He has improved his drops but then he has increased his insanely boneheaded penalties. I mean, the dude has THREE false start penalties. That is the second most on the team.  Couple that with his obvious limitations in terms of field vision, agility, etc and you just start to wonder what there really is to even believe in. I'll put it this way, when such a notoriously terrible personnel management coach like Canales gives up on you, that's saying a lot. He has ridden more bums for longer than any of us care to remember.
