John Clayton on Cowher and Fox.

Recommended Posts

John Clayton just said on sports center that Fox is likely to take the Dallas Job, he was then asked about Cowher in Carolina. He said it isn't likely for Cowher to come here because Carolina would never pay a high profile head coach and JR will look at coordinators! Thoughts Depressing or not?

Several people have been saying this all along.

I never gave it much more than a 10% chance before. Cowher is going to command about $7M and he'll want to install a 3-4 which means another 3 years of "rebuilding."

I'm still thinking Schotty Junior from the Jets.

Woo Hoo! Then maybe we could get Peppers back!

If we end up signing a lesser coach simply cuz JR wants to be cheap again, I'd have to seriously ponder continuing being a fan of this franchise

but with that being said..Jerry being cheap this year should have enough of a backlash that he should learn his lesson and not make the same mistake again.

so lets say he hires a guy like i dunno Jeff Davidson as head coach, just cuz hes cheaper than Jim Harbaugh,would you guys not have 2nd thoughts about this franchise?

and for the record i'm a charlotte native, so for me its really the panthers or nothing.

I'm of the belief that an owner/franchise has to earn your fanhood at some point and can also lose your fanhood at some point through their actions. It does not make you fairweather fan or whatever. Why would you keep spending your hard earned money on this franchise when the product isn't worth it.

I'm not saying this year is a reason for that because there are sound reasons why JR did what he did but if year after year your owner isn't trying to put out a winning product then you are OKAY in questioning your fanhood but cannot flip flop often.

    • I agree that roster construction is a bigger issue than Rod.  I don't know what coach behind the bench is winning this series.  We weren't even supposed to compete this year, but people are mad because we're getting swept in the ECF again.  If we lost in 7 last round people wouldn't feel that way.
    • And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot
    • I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
