(By Charles Chandler, Inside the Panthers) Panthers coach John Fox indicated he will return to the team next season in an interview aired last night on the weekly Panther Talk radio show on WBT (1110 AM).p/Team play-by-play announcer Mick Mixon taped the interview before the show, asking Fox about his future, referring to Fox's comments the previous day after a win over New Orleans in which Fox was noncommittal about his plans and wouldn't say whether he wanted to return to the team for 2010.

A caller to this morning's Mac Attack stated that that the NFL Network is reporting that John Fox's agent has stated that "Fox will not be back without an extension".

I can not verify this, but I'm passing it along in hopes that someone else can corroborate it.

Is it really that bad?

Some of you make it out like the team accomplished nothing in the past couple of games.

To me it is...I truly believe that Jake will be the starter going into next season if Fox is back...then it will truly be that bad for everyone! Do you wanna take that chance?

Would we have done so with Delhomme at the helm? And that begs the question: would Fox have ever put Moore in had Delhomme not been injured?

I actually think bringing Fox back is probably a good thing -- but I'm just playing Devil's advocate here.

I haven't seen anything on the NFL Network that corresponds with the caller's reporting. I have seen on the NFL.com where IF John Fox somehow gets out of his contract that the Browns will be the place he will go and it looks as if Holmgren will bring in Zorn and Sherman Smith as assistants.

"I don't have a lot of answers at this point other than I have a year remaining on my contract. I see myself being back here a year from now. That's just the way it is."

God man how do you go through life just saying everything is just the way it is on everything. I can't tell if Fox WANTS to be here or is staying because he has no options. The man acts stoic, like a machine....

Either way Fox is a good coach and I don't care if he is back. That means Meeks is back, and there is some consistency. This is also the last chance Fox has to do something so I doubt he comes back with Jake. I think in 2011 the Panther will be a very good team with Fox as HC. Our defense will be tough and as long as we get a #2 receiver, keep the backs... panthers will dominate.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
