John Fox & Jeff Davidson Should Be Fired ASAP


The Pope

Recommended Posts

after watching the bears game its clear to me now more than ever these 2 need to be fired they are sucking the life out of our offense with their stale ass playcalling.

Another thing the defense gives us 4 turnovers and we can't cash even one of them in. If that don't tell you jeff davidson needs to go nothing will he just don't have a clue at running an offense and john fox just needs to go he act has gotten old.

Maybe they should, but they won't be and I doubt that would fix anything... we just don't have the talent right now.

It's also important to remember that this is not Fox's roster. I think Fox should go anyways, but I'm not blaming this debacle on his coaching. This is JR's roster and he can't be fired.

Nobody is firing Fox or Hurney. We could go 0-16... they aren't going anywhere. The organization is expecting a lockout. They have no desire to build for the future and aren't even discussing the future, until this issue with the lockout is addressed at seasons end.

In Richardson's mind, this year is a meaningless. Fox is here because he has a year left on his contract and Richardson didn't want to sign anybody else to any sort of commitments with an uncertain future looming. That being the case, the expectations for Fox are this... "get through the season". We win one game, we win zero, it DOES NOT MATTER.

If ownership cared about winning TODAY, they wouldn't have let go of so much veteran talent for inexperienced ones going into this season. I don't see how you pull your veteran QB, get rid of Peppers and Harris and tell the coach you have high expectations for his club! :ciappa:

Plus the difference is, any GOOD coach we sign will want an owner commitment to spending money. Redskins coach Mike Shanahan didn't sign wth the Redskins because Jerry Richardson owns the team!!! :D

It's not all Fox, and it's not all Davidson. Firing them right now really isn't gonna save us at this point in the season.

No, but it could inspire people. At some point, things just become stagnant. People need to see a change in scenery. I think we've well reached that point.

No, they are not the ones on the field not executing or making pre-snap penalties. Davidson should be fired if anything to maybe light a fire under somebodies ass.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
