I don't think he will lose all that much in loss of interest. This isn't the Lions or Oakland...and I think we have a great team despite Delhomme.

I think of seasons like a year, in about a year he's contract is up.

I see it as he he has one season left. Unless you include this season.

The retarded part is half these people will want him back if we go into mid playoffs next year with a new QB.

Ha, you guys are funny. You think Fox will be fired soon. I'd bet my life he's not. Why would JR take a hit $ wise? There is no reason to unless there is a coach JR just cannot pass up. Fox is the best coach this team has had like it or not and they will let him finish up his last year on his contract...it makes the most sense business wise. Foxy does well with easier schedules, especially after a mediocre season, forget the pressure of it being his last year on a contract.

Also to add to the scenario a possible lockout in 2011, so they would be stuck paying a new coach with a new contract while nothing could be happening. The ONLY way I see Fox leaving is if there is a coach JR has his eyes on that wouldn't be available in 2011 and no, I don't think Cowher is that guy, but who knows.

I am no Fox lover but you have to look at both sides of the field and not get your hopes up and think it makes sense to get rid of him for the sole fact that you don't like him. He has always had mediocre seasons, no different from this one besides Delhomme, and Delhomme on the other hand, is worth every penny to be paid off so he'll leave.

So from a business perspective, it would not make sense to fire fox...I doubt they don't take a 'business approach' to the situation, but that would be the only way for a new HC IMO.

It could be a bad business decision keeping Fox. It might cost JR more money to bring him back because there will be no energy or excitement with this franchise going into next season. The stadium will be 1/2 empty.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
