I know it won't happen but.....

If this team does not beat the Rams, Foxy and Davidson should be fired. For too long the Panthers have been undercoached. There had been talent here that has not been utilized to anywhere near its potential. Foxy is a good coach, but not good enough. Davidson is over his head.

Fox forces his players to adjust to what he wants to do, instead of what the players are good at. This is why New England and Indianapolis have been so good for so long. They change to the players on the field. Fox, year after year tries to force a square peg into a round hole.

Most of the time, fans fail to see things that coaches do... coaches have a job for a reason.

however, it's become blatantly obvious that our offense is not functioning and playcalling AND execution are lacking. I think that a change needs to be made, it only to send a message that this team is accountable for it's poor play and it's time to improve.

I mean, on 1st and 2nd down, teams always have our number... and I have trouble believing that is because they are just sooo lucky. =p

That is what coaches do. They fit players to their scheme to win football games. I think it's very obvious our o-line and QB are subpar

This season is going by so damn slow and it sucks so bad. Its just obvious as long as Fox/Jeff is together we're going nowhere. We ran the ball too many times, and we did enough stupid ass trick plays

You cant beat the Rams something is wrong. Gettis gets no plays called for him. Its pathetic

no one will get fired. as much as i wish that would happen, it won't.

if we did fire foxy and/or davidson, who would we get to run the offense? tolbert? rip? skipper? none f those options look particularly appealing to me. maybe we go to someone in the UFL. it can't be much worse.

As I said in my thread title...won't happen. But, I do think firing Foxy would energize the fanbase. Got to worry now about anyone showing up for home games.

    • I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.
    • I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.
    • You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
