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.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
