You guys need to bust balls for a change during Fox's monday press conference. Coaching, playcalling, and just retarded logic has been going on far to long and the blame is always deflected to players. The biggest problem is the boob on the sideline and the boob up in the booth calling plays.

Fox won't be around next year to prevent access or whatever b/c he gets his feelings hurt. Real media wouldn't let Fox and company off the hook at this point.

They won't...they rarely ever speak out against the team.

And for good reason -- that's not their job. They definitely don't need to be "forcing a change."

Granted, they could ask questions regarding how effective the playcalling was, but I'll be honest: I don't think the playcalling is as much an issue as many here think. And this is coming from a guy who was absolutely disgusted with the playcalling in our first game.

But in the game against Tampa as well as yesterday's game, I actually thought the playcalling was fine. We made an effort to get the ball out to the runningbacks and tightends, which is what many of us here were clamoring for.

Right now, the problem is execution -- not playcalling.

bottom line is they set the players up for failure and then blame it on execution.

In the NFL you can't run the same formation/plays for consecutive years while tipping off all your runs and expect players to execute on offense.

their job is objective reporting. They aren't employed by the Panthers. From Dwayne Jarrett wasting a roster spot, to the best player (and it ain't Steve) being underused, etc. (I could go on and on and on)......bs cliche lines at some point can't be taken from Fox with so little fight given back.

I want to know what it accomplishes. Nothing is a secret. Is he supposed to care what any of those three say?

The press is "supposed" to be on the side of the reader. They are our eyes and ears and are supposed to represent us when they do interviews or ask questions. That is why they where created.

Correctamundo! Start calling out people and holding someone accountable and Jerry Richardson has the ability to effectively blackball a reporter and deny them any access to the team.

And don't think for a minute he wouldn't do it.

small market fear.

Jerry can't do that and they should call his bluff. If he started doing that then the national media would jump all over him blackballing all media. It would blowup in his face. Legit media ain't scared. That is why when there is stupidity in Washington or Dallas.....the media simply do there job locally and nationally.

Imagine if another team was doing what Richardson is doing?

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
