Well, yeah. But right now, what do you think?

Based on conditions right now, August 27, 2010 1:52 EST, considering we had an 8-8 2009 regular season record, heard comments like "Jake Delhomme gives us the best chance to win", and now a 0-2 2010 Preseason, and the current catastrophe of Armanti Edwards... hell no.

Yes. He's one of the better coaches in the league, whether Panthers fans want to admit it or not. If he left Carolina he would have absolutely no problem finding a HC job somewhere else. I think with the group of coaches he has assembled (mainly referring to Meeks and Davidson), we have a hell of a staff that can take this team far. We have a very talented young core of players and Fox can make some great things happen with them. If Fox stays around I'm confident we will get back to the Super Bowl before the Stewart/Otah/Kalil/Beason/Brown/Clausen/Munnerlyn/Godfrey/Martin era is over.

Fox has taken the biggest risk of his head coaching career this off-season. If the reward looks equally big, he ought to get a chance to reap it. That doesn't mean he will, what's more likely is he will be allowed to walk by letting his contract expire and not matching the offers he will receive.

If Fox has done the right thing, the next guy is going to look like a genius.

    • I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?
    • LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.  
    • After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
