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 :(

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.

      I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing.

      Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
