Fox losing grip or interest?


Jackofalltrades

Recommended Posts

Desperate times usually bring out someone's true colors. Weeks ago Fox distanced himself from personnel decisions that were made in the off season. This, was very unlike what we've seen from Fox in the past. Fox has always absorbed or ignored blame, now he's deflecting it.

In his post game comments he remarked:

** “That worked out really well,” coach John Fox said sarcastically. “In hindsight I wish we had done something else.

** “We were in a little bit of a time issue there with no timeouts remaining so you’re a little limited. So we were not able to punch it in from the two inches, or whatever it was.”

So the one time Fox doesn't put his hand into a coordinator's gameplan it was THESE two calls? No, Fox knew what Davidson was calling, I'm sure of it. If he didn't, yeah, he should have.

Exactly, I thought EVERY offensive play has to go thru Foxy, right?

Fox is becoming a cancer to the whole locker room now. If your the Head Coach, then ultimately it all falls on you. Maybe he'd secretly like to Fire Davidson (rightfully so) and does not have that power anymore. While I do appreciate Fox's candor, its not a good idea to throw your other coaches under the bus. It will lead the players to resent those guys and the subsequent trickle down effect get can downright ugly.

From what I hear, this is still Fox's defense. For his players not to be ready for that last run to me, is pathetic. Id say he has grip. Quite frankly I don't see what either side gets from sticking around. We don't get anything out of firing him now, but what do we get out of keeping him?

    • Do you see the vision?  As of now our Carolina Panthers don’t have an identity. We are not an offensive powerhouse and on defense we only started getting it together towards the end of the year last year. In my opinion we are much closer to having an incredible defense that scares the daylights out of people. I say the answer is simple and we fully commit to that possible identity.    Emmanuel McNeil Warren (E man)  This guy is like a shark lurking around ready to attack anyone. Fearless. He is easily a top 20 talent in my eyes, and the only reason he isn’t more talked about is because he’s from Toledo. Do your due diligence as panther fans and watch his tape I beg you. Once you’re done watching let me ask you this, if you dropped E - Man into the strong safety spot on the Buckeyes, he isn’t being talked about as one of the best prospects we’ve seen in some time given the skill set you see with this guy? I think so. Put his name on the card and turn it in at 19.    Jacob Rodriguez  High effort, High energy, High IQ guy that flies around the field. We all know Jacob at this point. My only concern is he’s a little bit too good and I’m not sure he makes it to us at our pick in the second. With the additions of Jacob and E- Man I think our defense goes to top 5 in the league. We would have a duo of linebackers that rival anything we’ve had in our past. I’m not a GM so I don’t know what the possible answer could be, but if there’s a way we can comfortably trade up in the second to secure this guy I think we find a way to do it.    Spend the rest of our picks fixing the O - line.    Thoughts Panthers fans? Who’s the ideal duo for yall? 
    • OL is arguably much more important to the success of a young QB. (Or any QB)
    • Didn’t get around to watching this one but looks like Pistons played their starters and actually tried…? Unlucky that they sit vs Magic, etc and try vs us. Hopefully we can beat the Heat and then Magic or 6ers with no Embiid. BUT if not, the NBA really should give us the lottery win this year like they did Mavs last year. Another high pick could be our final missing piece and have us as legit top contenders next year and going forward if we’re healthy. Or trade it for a Giannis type
