I don't know if he will land the NY gig, bringing in Fox is also committing your franchise to old school football. It is a passing league now and NY might not want to stay in the stoneage.

I think Fox will be the Brown head coach. They suck and Fox can turn them into a .500 team with his style.

That would be a good fit for him, but Foxxy is very tight with the Giants ownership and many speculate that Coughlin only has a job this year because Fox was retained to finish up his contract. That is just speculation though.

He's definitely not on the hot seat in the usual sense of the term. If he has a bad year he's gone but if he has a good year it's just going to come down to money. I would think he'd want to stay here simply to avoid the headache of going somewhere else, but if the money isn't there he'll take off in a heartbeat.

I wouldn't say always, we have had 5 seaons at .500 or below. Thats not exactly competative. I will give you the fact he is the best coach the panthers have every had but that really isn't saying much.

What has he built? Good players are/were either ready to leave or giving up on him...Peppers didn't want to play for Fox anymore so he left and you could hear it in Smitty's voice last year he was very very frustrated with what was going on. You may be able to say he has build a good D but we have always had a decent one...even before Fox! He hasn't developed a QB, or a WR. Not sure what you mean by he has build something :confused:

Maybe, maybe not...only time will tell!

1. 1 game below 500, and at least we haven't been the lions or browns

2. smitty was frustrated with jake and fox for being on his nuts.

3. peppers isn't too bright. just athletic

4. true. time will tell

Fox is a just above avg coach and has been good for us. But only 3 winning seasons in 8 years ain't really a good thing for a team. Most HC today on most Team now days would be fired if they had 2 bad seasons. 3 winnings seasons in 8 years is not what you would call a great coach. I'm sure we have a few former HCs out there is wanting this job next year. Like Bill Cowher for starts. But I'm sure if fox has a good season and gets the team back in the playoffs. I'm sure he will a new contract. But if he fails. Bye bye Foxy. :grouphug::svengo:

First of all those 3 losing seasons were 7-9 with one of them a significant improvement over 1-15. He has not had the real stinkers many teams have. Sure we have some very average seasons as well and some very good ones.

He is not a great coach but is a good one. Lets see who we replace him with and have this discussion in a year or two as well. Then we will know if we are better off or not.

And there are a bunch of teams that would jump at a coach who will do no worse than 7-9 and could do as well as 12-4.

what about Meeks? D is lookin' good.

I like Meeks a lot and he seems like a viable candidate. I'd be more worried about losing him than losing Foxy. Assuming when Fox goes everyone goes. That would be a mistake in my opinion.

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
