Now more than ever, I'm done with Fox

I'm done with Fox, since the season is basically over anyways - I'd like to see us lose every game from here on out to make it as certain as possible that Fox is gone. I know that sounds terrible, but it's like treating cancer - you have to kill some good cells along with the bad cells to get rid of it once and for all.

You know why we lose? because there is no aggression or accountability on this team. Jake can go out there and play like crap and we just call plays around him instead of benching him. Peppers is a ghost and nobody on the coaching staff gets in his face. Look at Tony Sparano last night, someone makes a mistake and he's all over them. A team takes on the personality of it's coach and that's why we're soft.

I love the Carolina Panthers, which is why I will be rooting for us to lose all our remaining games this year - it's the only way I can be reasonably sure that we'll finally turn the page on Fox and get some energy back into this team. Fox was good for this team when he came on because it needed some TLC after going 1-15. Now we have a decent team that is under performing and needs a big swift kick in the butt and Fox clearly doesn't have that in his bag of tricks.

I like Cowher, but I don't care who we bring in here next year as long as they are aggressive and demand accountability.

to tell you the truth i'm right up there with you man. you basically summed up the exact same way I feel about the situation (save for the accountability part, they all seem to hold themselves accountable, they just aren't doing anything about it).

I'm still going to be cheering for the panthers, but at the same time, I won't cry if they drop every last game this season, because it only means our coach might be gone.

Agreed, it's good that we have character guys like Beason to act as surrogate coaches or this team would be lost.

Just once, just once I wanna see Fox stare someone down as they approach the sideline after doing something stupid, but I know that will never happen - he'll just clap with that constipated look on his face and say "come on guys".

Dolphins are playing with many of the same guys that were on the 1-15 team they had, so what's different? Answer: They got two guys in there (Parcells, Sparano) that will not accept failure. I thought Sparano was gonna kick the TE's ass right there on the sideline after a play where the guy ran the wrong route (didn't flatten out enough). When our guys do that, Fox gives them a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

Dude, I know you're upset & all, but that is silly to now want our team to lose all games. That not the Panthers fan way. Not cool at all. Beside, even a coach can get fired while they have a good record. Remeber Marty (former San Diego coach, since I don't know how to spell his last name :P) & Dungy (when he was coaching the Bucs)? Again, they has good records & got fired anyway.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By frankw · Posted

      I think the Bevell hire has more to do with adding actual veteran head coaching experience to the staff than anything else. But I do wholeheartedly agree that the obsession in general with Seattle needs to come to an end. I mean we plucked the one guy there to be our GM who turned out to be our worst GM in franchise history in just a few short years and that's really saying something given our history there. Clearly trying to mimick Seattle in any way has not been productive. As far as Idzik many of us have asked the same question but at this point in time it doesn't really matter anymore because Canales is either going to lead this franchise to a winning record or he will be shown the door.

      That’s why Bevell is a good move. Idzik might not be chopped liver, he is just inexperienced and even less ready to be the play caller than Canales. I still say the playbook is limited which is a hinderance to calling plays, I would imagine.    Anyway Beavis lol… no Bevell, got to consecutive SBs as an OC and won one with 48 points or something. Should have won the second one. And had several more good years there.    They were the team we had to learn how to beat it took us til the third year I think before we could go into Seattle and successfully compete.   That is glass half full thinking, yep, but that is head and shoulders over what we have had here for a while. Certainly now.     In addition.. It was Canales’ boss. He knew more then , I would bet he knows more now. I can’t look at this as anything but a potential positive thing.  Hell he might be the guy that can look at Dave and say what the fug are you doing? And Dave will listen. I think I can hope for that.  Maybe not.
