I never really thought I would see a John Fox team do this

When Fox came to Carolina he was all about getting everything out of a player he could. You didnt have to be talented you just had to show hart and play hard. Put yourself on the line and just hit someone. Be nasty and be in the right spot.

All Fox asked of his offense was to take on the nastiness of his defense play hard and give your all while leaning on teams till they broke. The run game was a must and if that didnt work we used some more run game. Our QB was asked to manage a game not to win it and when the opportunity presented it self to throw the long ball.

This was a John Fox football team

Now flash forward to 2010

John Fox has a defense that is a quite bit more talented then the one he fielded in 2002 and has adopted the "It is what it is" philosophy. Our Defense is regularly out of place, and dose not keep its motor running the whole game. While its not all there fault because they do stay on the field most of the game they also have a horrible 3rd down % that has not been addressed for quite some time.

Now the even more shocking part starts. Not only dose our Offense have two stellar backs that are never used in a game. We are entering into a dangerous relation with what is called musical QBs. This offense is so backwards to the John Fox we once knew it should be called his Red headed bastard child(Sorry Gingers but its all your fault).

So yes this is your 2010 Carolina Panthers but the Fox team you have grown to love has checked out of Charlotte a long time ago.

I think you overrate Fox immensely.

I could be wrong.

I really dont. I think he was a damn good coach back then.

Now I think Damn why is he coach?

Fox is just a shell of what he once was. He is all what I hate about Fox with none of what I use to love. Fox dose not even believe in Foxball anymore. He just looks like a man that is waiting for a gallows.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
