What do you think?

* Drafting Peppers

* Starting Peete over Weinke in first season (established conservative, win with defense MO)

* Keeping Kasay over Shayne Graham

* Replacing Peete with Delhomme after one bad half

* Letting Trgovac go finally, replacing him with Meeks

* Letting Henning go finally (hey, that's what the fans wanted)

* Letting Crossman go finally

Trgo was one of the meanest people I think ever worked for the Panthers.

With that said, of the few times I met him he was really nice to me.

Had some good conversations with him.

Not sure why. Guess I just had that "it" factor.

Maybe I should play QB.

He hated kids, though, it seemed.

I like his decision to clap when our team fumbles....

Actually, Fox's loyalty to his players and his tendency to encourage them no matter the situation is one of the things that has made him successful. Most of his players over the years have loved him. When you love your coach you will play a lot harder for them than for some dick who freaks out everytime you make a mistake. These are professional athletes, they don't need someone yelling at them to let them know that they shouldn't fumble the ball.

Yeah. He and Henning were opposites. Henning was a friendly old guy who had all the confidence in the world. He'd flat out tell you if he had enough talent on hand or not. Trgo seemed to be afraid of what everyone thought of him. And he carried it around with him, too. But you'd never hear him rip one of his players.

We, the fans, asked for Henning's head for so many years because of what we deemed as his anemic offense.

In comes Davidson, and many are calling for his head because of what we deem as an anemic offense.

Did anyone watch the Dolphins/Jets game last night? Jets have a pretty decent defense. Was that an anemic offense?

The problem IS Fox/Hurney.

      I did not, this reminds me of another live action type video game that never made it and has a huge cult following. Thanks for the 90s nostalgia frend!! My gods do I miss that era at USAs peak and it was my best on many aspects too.

      Many layers my frend- Panthers had a draft recently. They picked 4 defense players. Each player picked 11, 22, 33, 55 as their number. For some players that number match the round or pre-draft round rank, example- Prince was a 3rd rounder and choose 33. Nic was a 1st rounder on some mock drafts and Dan Morgan said they had him as a 1st, he picked 11. Cam Jackson recently switched his number to 55, same as draft and has been telling Dave he wants to be special over and over.  The 44 was to add GOAT feels, thoughts, and more intrigue to this rookie phenomenon. X files cause it was a great TV show and maybe it was playing when this theory came together.......   I hope this helps!

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      The best things Purdy has are certainly important tools for any QB. His accuracy his timing his decision making etc. I feel like he is a high end Teddy Bridgewater. You can compete and win in the regular season with this especially in a weakened NFC but where his limitations come into focus is when you are trying to contend for a Super Bowl you are going against elite and in some instances generational QB's like Mahomes. And when the time has come for him to go up against Mahomes he simply can't get it done. Now certainly he is not alone in that regard and people will point to another highly regarded QB such as Josh Allen who also cannot get by Mahomes. But the difference I see is Allen is not IMO at a phsyical disadvantage in that matchup whereas Purdy is. And that is with what had been to this point a comically stacked roster around Purdy and let's be clear we cannot understate that regardless of which side of the fence we land on in this debate. Purdy has had a top 5 roster and a top 5 coach. And the last time they went to the Super Bowl they leaned on McCaffrey extremely heavily. Now with what they are having to pay him and divert limited resources elsewhere they face a steep climb to get back to the Super Bowl let alone actually win it.
