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.

    • Another source: NFL Rumors: Hakeem Butler to Visit Panthers After UFL Success, Wade Phillips' Praise ZACH BACHAR JUNE 10, 2024 The Carolina Panthers are expected to conduct a workout with UFL wide receiver Hakeem Butler, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Butler recorded a league-leading 652 receiving yards as a member of the St. Louis Battlehawks. He was previously a fourth-round draft pick by the Arizona Cardinals in 2019. After the Battlehawks were defeated by the San Antonio Brahmas in the XFL Conference title game, Brahmas head coach and longtime NFL coach Wade Phillips told the receiver that "I'm going to tell everybody in the NFL that I talk to that you need to be playing," via Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. Despite the loss by St. Louis, Butler still hauled in six receptions for a team-high 59 receiving yards. The 28-year-old was named the 2024 UFL Offensive Player of the Year, as he was one of only two wideouts to have multiple games with at least 100 receiving yards. While the Panthers added Diontae Johnson and first-round rookie Xavier Legette to their wide receiver room in the offseason, they could still use some depth in the form of Butler. Carolina isn't opposed to picking up former UFL players, as Rapoport revealed on Thursday that the team is also "expected" to sign All-UFL receiver Daewood Davis. Although Butler was selected by the Cardinals in the 2019 draft, he did not play as a rookie due to a hand injury and only appeared in two regular-season games as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020. He did not record a catch. Butler signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2023 offseason, although he ultimately didn't make the team's regular-season roster. At 6'5", he has the frame to potentially make an impact in training camp and earn a shot at making Carolina's 53-man roster. If his workout goes well with the Panthers, Butler could give himself another chance to possibly return to the NFL.
    • They have all the rookies. The DC game has Ron though. With the new QB. It is weird.  pantherclaw, Bryce sort of is what he is, and in Madden he makes throws the real Bryce can’t make. Here and there. He ain’t ain’t a top QB in Madden though, lots of picks. aone of them lol was the throw that scares the hell out of me when he throws it, out to the boundary... quack quack.
