...according to Vic Carucci @ NFL.COM:

Top five coaches

1. Norv Turner, San Diego: He continues to do an outstanding job of keeping the Chargers consistently sharp and unified.

2. Wade Phillips, Dallas: Despite constant media discussion about his job security, all Phillips does is guide his team into the postseason.

3. John Fox, Carolina: Despite constant media discussion about his job security, Fox has the Panthers on the roll. After leading them to a lopsided victory vs. his former team, the Giants, he should have no worries about his future with the Panthers.

4. Bill Belichick, New England: That was a statement victory over Jacksonville, and the statement is that Belichick's team could be very dangerous in the playoffs.

5. Eric Mangini, Cleveland: Maybe he can't do anything to save his job, but leading the Browns to three wins in a row is worthy of recognition.

» The Carolina Panthers' coaching situation is something to watch. It isn't because the Panthers want to dump John Fox, as many in the media have speculated. As I'm hearing it from various NFL sources, it could very well be a case of Fox not wanting to remain with an organization that might not necessarily provide him with the resources to turn things around.

This is more interesting from the article.

He had a resource he was not willing to use.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
