**NOTICE: THIS THREAD IS PURE AND UNADULTERATED WISHFUL NONSENSE**

Given the state of flux that the Carolina defensive coaching staff is in, if you were in charge would you:

A: Let Fox rebuild his defensive staff and keep trucking along.

B: Dump Fox, promote Davidson, and let him build a staff with the goal of creating a creative offensive minded team.

C: Dump Fox, and hire Cowher as HC (assuming he would, which doesn't seem likely this year), and let him rebuild the entire staff, and in the process switch the D to a *gasp* 3-4.

B

Davidson doesn't know defense. He will hire a coordinator, and let him run it the way he wants it. If that means Fox will stop butchering the offensive playcalling and tinkering with the defensive schemes, them I'm all for it. This is just wishful nonsense though.

I'd hate to become one of the fire-fox fine young males that stroll around here though...

Damn, so many edits. None of these options look too appealing.

B---cannot happen because the OWNER of the team wants to be just like the Steelers

A---will probably happen for the next 2 years until Fox's contract is up and he retires

C---Cowher went to one superbowl and 2 AFC championship games in his first 7 years as head coach, losing the superbowl, just like John Fox. The next two years, 8 and 9, for those of you who are mathematically challenged were bad years. It was not until he broke down and drafted a QB in rd1, that he was able to finally overcome 14 years of mediocrity and win a superbowl. Why exactly does everyone want Cowher?

I don't think that the answer lies within any of your solutions

If we want, and I mean really want, to be like the Steelers, as JR confesses, then we should follow their lead and hire the Vikings DC as our head coach. Leslie Frazier is the answer. The FO just doesn't have the guts to do it.

Because under Cowher the Steelers were consistantly in the hunt for their division title and the playoffs. Pittsburgh was feared as a place to play. I personally want the guy in here

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
