Panthers are happy with mediocrity

or they are too cheap to eat a contract. That would be the only two reasons to bring back John Fox. The guy does just enough not to get fired. (He's the Peter Gibbons of the NFL). He tanked the season by not benching Delhomme. That move alone would get almost every coach fired.

And Hurney, name a player picked after the 3nd round that became an impact player for this team? Name one.

Jeff King (already you need to stfu)

Dante Rosario

Charles Godfrey (I think he sucks but still a starter)

Geoff Schwartz

Mackenzy Bernardeu

Captain Munnerlyn

Matt Moore (holy poo, undrafted)

I'll give you Captain Munnerlyn though.

I think Richardson is just getting to old, and worried about a rebuilding process.

He knows he has solid talent.

I am 100% confident we will make a big splash in FA and get us a deep WR core..

Fox only has one year left.. Richardson will give him that to finish what he started, if he cant then he will clean house.

The notion that ownership doesn't care about winning is just ridiculous.

They may not agree with the way fans think it ought to be done, but that doesn't mean they don't care.

Mr. Richardson made a judgment call. You can agree with it or not (and I don't) but it's silly to think he doesn't care about winning.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
