I predict the magic date where our next head coach is announced will be January 12th.

Another interesting thought: It's entirely possible that Jake Delhomme will never take another snap. If Fox decides to let Moore finish the season, then Jake's playing career might be essentially over. No way does he start anywhere next year, he would have to hope for an injury to the better quarterback on whichever roster he lands on next season, ours or not.

probably the case. on that note, i'm willing to bet if the NO game comes down to a victory formation for the Panthers, it will be Jake taking the knee.

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.

No he's not, it is up the end of next season.

you have to remember, people who worry about postseason things hard enough to obsess over them in every thread so they can wait to piss and moan about the team not doing what they wanted them to do?

They've moved on to next season. They've quit. The football that's happening now is inconsequential. So that sort of "this season/next season" thing blurs a little.

Because he's gonna lose alot more money (and interest in his product) keeping Fox on. Despite that, I expect them to keep Fox and continue to let this franchise wallow in "under the radar" mediocrity. Thats the type of passive leadership we have on Mint St.

    • When we have everyone playing like they should, we can win the Cup. That has been the biggest problem when we get to the playoffs, but this year seems to be fixed mostly. We could have had multiple if we had done this in the past.
    • Here we go Bryce Stan’s you should love this. Hell it may be one of you.  It has every cliche excuse and then some.  Unintentionally hilarious my limit was reached when he said Bryce had it hard because four play callers. 
    • Luke goes in to the specifics of what he looked to accomplish in joint practices.  Basically they may work with someone on the opposing team to stress something they feel is a weakness in their own game in a different way that can be done with someone they are familiar with. That they can have predetermined stresses but since neither wants to get injured and it has absolutely no bearing on anything there is not the level of concern that would be in a preseason game.  He would also even chat with opposing OC.   It seems like an interesting nuance among the vets and savy pros.
