Fox Isn't Worried About Employment, Distributes Blame, Stew Calls Out Offensive Line

Good read...

Denied a contract extension over the past two years, Fox is in the last year of his deal after the Panthers spent the offseason overhauling the roster and shedding payroll to become the NFL’s youngest team.

“I don’t think it matters if you have four years or one year and I don’t care if you’re a player or a coach,” Fox said of his contract. “I think in the times now we’re all well compensated.

“I don’t think I’ve ever really worried about having a job in this league. I’m not going to start now.”

While Fox has taken subtle shots at the roster-gutting earlier this season, he disputed Monday the claim the Panthers don’t have enough offensive talent to be competitive—even if statistics say otherwise.

...

“Did you see any holes?” Stewart said Monday, reluctant to talk. “As an offensive unit, we’re just not making enough plays. Point blank.”

And by no means am I a Moore apologist, but as I pointed out yesterday, that last INT looked to be on Smitty, although Moore shouldn't have thrown it...

But Fox was quick to point out miscommunication with the Panthers’ underwhelming receiving unit.

“There were some other areas that broke down on some of the interceptions,” Fox said. “I don’t think I can pin it on” Moore.

Haha I say this same thing and I have Mav and Dockery all over me, even after Dockery admitted to not watching the game. I'm going to PM you all of my thoughts from now on and have you post them and see if they get different responses.

Smitty homers will never see his flaws. Any time you bring up his attitude it is "always improving". His attitude has been improving longer than Vick has been learning the WCO, and that attitude is still poo. Keep that he has come a long way BS away from me.

The J-Stew line and the Otah line were the two most interesting things in that article.

He's right.

But this wasn't the way to address it :(

    • Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
    • I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
