Why??

Why is everyone so bent on getting Fox out of Carolina? Hasn't he brought us some good memories? Undefeated at home last year? Has everyone forgot about that? Who would replace him? Not Cowher, just because his daughter goes to college here does not make this his first choice.

Mainly the inconsistencies. We have to trade 1 good season for 1 mediocre one. His proclamation that QB's aren't worth a high investment. His inability to have our team motivated.

What really bothers me is he can't get a mostly healthy team to beat the bills yet he can get demolished roster to beat the vikings AND giants. That kind of inconsistency is just awful.

You can't use the past to help him out, Jake had one of the better QB performances of all time in the superbowl, and showed amazing poise and courage throughout the 03 season but it's time to let go.

Depending on how things go I think we're a lock to make the playoffs next year, but if he stays we're a lock to have a 7-9 season after. That's why we need to look for someone better.

Fox fired = Meeks gone. New coach would likely clean house and bring in all of his own coordinators/etc, and I would hate to see Meeks go. He's turned this defense into something great, and next year with a healthy line, and Thomas Davis back I can only imagine it'd be a thousand times better.

I respect Fox for what he's done for the franchise, and I'm fine with him coming back ONLY IF Delhomme is sitting on the bench. Release McCown/Feely, and draft a QB in round 4-5/late rounds and pick one off free agency, and allow Moore to compete for the role with them.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
