The overwhelming opinion in the rumor mills appears to tag John Fox as one of the most attractive POTENTIAL coaching hires of 2010, should he become available.

Equally clear is the fact that the POTENTIAL Carolina head coaching job is among the most attractive in the league, should it become available.

This cements the decision to invite Fox back but without an extension as a stroke of genius......as long as that situation is remedied within the next few weeks. Fox has now tested the waters, if only for a day, and it is clear that he would have many suitors. Enough so that the Panthers can work this to their advantage and wrangle some compensation in the form of draft picks which they so desperately need. Whether we promote from within or Cowher steps in and keeps Davidson/Meeks it is clear (imo) that the Panthers would not suffer and stand a good chance to both improve on the field and in their draft pick bank account.

Make this a win/win Panthers! Shop Fox!!!

I highly doubt Cowher would keep the coordinators in place if he came in, as much as I'd want him to.

The thing is, the Panthers appear to be his dream job. That means we can use that to our advantage.

scenario; Fox gets offer from Cleveland for a 5 year contract that would secure him financially through the potential problems in 2011. Browns want him badly enough to either throw in two picks, Brady (who I don't want) or some combination. Panthers can either move ahead with the confidence of the scenario on the front page (Davidson/Meeks/Skipper) or offer the job to Cowher on the condition that he keep the Coordinators.

Didn't the league write a rule to prevent teams from trading HC, after the Herm Edwards Trade.

That sounds good to me, I'm just not sure Cowher would go for that. Seems like he might want to be able to appoint his own assistants.

Yeah after Gruden was traded from Oakland to Tampa they outlawed the practice. We couldn't trade Fox and we would get nothing for him but perhaps a buyout of the contract from what I have read.

Edwards was Post-gruden, Jets got a 4th for him (how I don't know).

    • That zone was so soft that 3 guys were bearly on the screen. No rushing called. Playing off the line 10+ yards. Yeah that's garbage time. It took an onsides kick to make them try to play D again. Until then they didn't care and still wouldn't play real D against Young until they absolutely had to and that was with backups in the backfield. Slow start is freaking hilarious. He was gifted the lowest effort a bad team can give and still couldn't put anything together for 1 freaking series at the end after 2 quarters of warmup ball. It was like watching someone stretching for an hour and then pull a hammy after 10 feet of running. 
    • On the subject of Reich and him being no good as a coach, because he wouldn’t change everything he did to accommodate Young. He wanted to sit Young. He knew what Young was.  But to the point, was Andrew Luck a good QB under Reich in Indy? Most people don’t hesitate to say yes. Well, Luck thought enough of his coaching to bring him to Stanford.  There is a bona fide NFL QB that seems to dispute the painting of Reich as a incompetent and the reason for Young’s shortcomings.  Yes he got fired. It appears as if Tepper and Fitterer forced a QB he did not want on him and poisoned the well right from the start. I don’t blame Reich one bit for being pissed either.  And I wasn’t a Reich guy I wanted Wilks. I accepted the Reich hire but never lobbied for him.  Just saying he is being dogged here unfairly.   
    • I think its a mix of both. Bryce being too small and offense is too vanilla. Plays arent creative enough. Most are slants, fades and runs. But even Baker and Sam had to deal with vanilla offense and looked horrid. Thats why I say it's a mix of both.
