I think Fox is leaving


Matt Foley

Recommended Posts

No coach right now makes that much Fox makes 4.5 this season and I read he is supposed to make 6 next. The highest paid coach this season only made 5.5 mil.

Rumors are that Cowher walked from the Steelers for money. The $10 mil has been reported plenty (whereas the "fox is leaving" rumors haven't seen any realistic representation).

Fact is, if JR were to let Fox go and is worried about 2011 uncertainty, he's going to hire young again. Do you really think is he going to put all the chips out there and pay a $60 million deal to a coach that might be sitting around doing nothing in a year?

That reason right there could be why JR might promote from within.

Yeaha read around and saw the $10 and wanting control. Not a good idea. Cowhers making the rounds too. Seen where the Bills are talking to him too. He's trying to leverage himself. But back to the $10 mil. Holmegren was making $8 million his last season with the Seahawks. Dont care for coaches trying to wear two caps. If Cowher wants that much time to look somewhere else. Maybe Gruden will change his mind.

The more I think about it the madder I get. I would not mind if he stays or goes, BUT I don't like it on his terms. I would much rather see him FIRED if he is to leave. I can see it now. If Fox leaves on his own terms the Media will be "Why did Carolina let one of the best D minded coaches go?" If he is fired it would just feel better. Either way the media will kill Carolina for "letting" it happen. Screw the Media!!

Richardson's health is good right now.

I mean either you have something or you're attention whoring. So which is it?

He just had a heart transplant. He is getting up in age and it is known that he wants a Superbowl ring. Thats been his main goal since he got the franchise.

Can you imagine if we let him go and the panthers stumble.... It'll be unbearable.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
