Will Fox be let go mid-season if we continue losing?

Normally I would say no way, but I wonder if Richardson is fed up. Not that Richardson is innocent in this debacle, but curious as to your opinions. If we are going hire Cowher and we continue losing, why not get him rolling? I know this sounds out there but if we are 0-6, is it really out of the question?

I hope he doesn't stay on staff but that is just my opinion. Seems like the experts feel like Cowher is the man and if not Cowher then Gruden b/c he knows the conference so well. Having said that, both are available and don't have any hurdles to starting.

If we continue to lose it will be an interesting topic. Probably will not happen b/c JR will not want to pay a salary to a coach for next year during the lock out.

Would be a smart move if Richardson is considering one of the coordinators as a head coach. On the job interview - nothing better.

I think JR respects Fox too much to do that.

I can see both of these cases. But I dont think we will promote from within.

yep, thats the only way i see us getting rid of fox mid season. richardson isn't going to go out and hire someone else to come in mid season. that very rarely happens on any team.

meeks is the only one i can really see being given that opportunity.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
