I think Fox will jump ship

I don't think any teams are going to extend to Fox any offers until some of these bigger name coaches are hired (Cowher, Shanahan, etc.).

This... and if Cleveland doesn't get rid of Mangini, Oakland would likely be the only other candidate...

Let's face it... If he would want to go to Oakland instead of stay with Carolina, then let him go and make Al Davis pay out the ass...

I doubt Fox would ever go back to the Raiders. He actually took a hiatus from coaching years ago b/c he got tired of working for/dealing with Al Davis.

I am also in the minority that wants Fox to stay put. If we were to bring a new head coach in, the only one I would be ok with is McDermott.. the DC from the Eagles. His defense could use our players and there would not be a mass overhaul on defense.

I think there are more teams thinking about changing coaches than people think.

The obvious are Buffalo, Oakland, Was, and possibly Cleveland.

I think that Seattle, Jacksonville, and Tampa could be looking to get new coaches as well. None of those jobs are shabby and if they are willing to give Fox a long-term deal, I wouldn't doubt he'd take it over risking his reputation on our QB situation for next year.

I don't think any teams are going to extend to Fox any offers because he is under contract. They would need permission from the Panthers to talk to him and then would have to negotiate the buy out. It ain't gonna happen.

Is Fox going to be any better in games 1-11 in 2010 than he was this year?

He plays entirely different when the season is lost, he plays to win not plays not to loose.

He still will be ultra conservative.

He still will keep the rookies on the bench if at all possible.

He still will run the ball on 3rd down if we have any kind of a lead.

And worst of all he may even find a way to play Jake.

Fox has been a good coach for the Panthers but if he leaves I won't loose any sleep over it.

      First Round Poll: Position Drafted

      By MHS831 · Posted

      This is the best reason for drafting a T--Moton's knee is also a big concern for me--I am not sure if it is still justified, but leg injuries for big men can be degenerative.  I have argued against it--I think Morgan will think it has been addressed and will draft a Late-round OT with upside.  Forsythe?  What the hell was that?  I am leaning WR (guessing what they might do) because they really don't have a Z WR, based on Cosell's description of the position. TE is in play.  DT is in play.  The thing I am most confident about?  LB in round 2.

      I think they wanted to dispell the rumors of his work ethic, but that is speculation.  Interesting point.  I am thinking (right now) that they might go WR again.

      First Round Poll: Position Drafted

      Personally, I have argued that the pick is probably unlikely to be an OT in an effort to read the tea leaves, but I am an OL fanatic and would get it. By now, they probably have info about Ickey and I think the decision will be based on the likelihood of his return to form by 2027.   Thanks to Cosell, I am more inclined to lean towards the Z WR and Concepcion or Cooper.  After he explained it, I felt that it is a need.   DT could easily be the pick.  Who did we get to replace Robinson?  I think any GM looks to upgrade a position, not simply replace.  That would suggest an early draft pick, maybe? I am not happy about having Scott back.  Please tell me that was a depth move.   When it comes to TE, I pray we don't love Sadiq.   I doubt it is a CB, C, or Edge, but if an elite CB or Edge fell to us....(to your point). I think we could try to trade back if there is a market.
