Dubious distinction for John Fox if he returns to the Panthers next season

He'll be here next year

I think so too. Anybody who doesn't think the potential lockout in 2011 will have a major effect on all NFL business transactions this offseason really hasn't thought things through. That lockout looked only slightly possible two years ago. Now it is very possible.

He'll be the first coach in NFL history to have coached nine seasons with the same team without a single set of back-to-back winning seasons. That's pretty amazing.

Not as amazing as the fact that somebody had so little of anything resembling a life that they chose to research that. THAT IS AMAZING.:D

So is the plan to not have a head coach heading into the 2011 season just in case there is a lockout?

Seriously?

What he means is that signing someone to a multi year deal this off season could be incredibly bad business as there is a potential lockout on the horizon. JR might see it as fortunitus planning that has left him with his head coach's contract expiring just as the lock out is due. That way if a lock out DOEs occur then he currently has no contract in place for a head coach, meaning he is not paying anyone to do squat all.

In the event that the lockout does not happen he can say goodbye to Fox and then hire someone else in the 2010 post season.

    • 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.
    • 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.
