One factor to consider in reference to Fox behing a "hot candidate" in 2011

I'd love to hear the chat between Jerry Richardson & another NFL team owner who will consider John Fox. Reference won't exactly be glowing.
JR is a very respected owner around the league...despite what some of us feel about him :mad:. Now I don't think he would attempt to sabotage Fox, but owners talk, and he could very well dish dirt and/or say something that could turn owners off. Just throwing it out there. Mainly because I'm bored.

I dont think he will need to dish dirt. The on field performance speaks for its self. Fox did not get his way and when the going got tough he threw everyone under the bus. I can count the times on my hand when this coaching staff made half time adjustments.

Here is the facts...

Fox still had a good team even without the players we lost.

None of those said players are even starting on other teams.

There are 4 or 5 teams with less talent and more wins than us and that speaks volumes.

What players do you speak of? Our team is awful, our talent level is awful, if it were any good, they would be getting paid more. But they're not good, hence their performance is not good, and which is why their salary is not very high.

You are wrong about a lot of things and now you are proving it about the Panthers.

So why is the youngest team in the NFL considered one of the toughest in the NFC yet the second youngest is the worst in the NFL? Coaching.

Last year the youngest got their first win in week 8, and their second in week 15. Coaching is part of it, for sure, but experience counts as well.

And why does everyone care so much about whether Fox gets another head coaching gig anyway? Are you all that bound by resentment? It's one thing to be angry at the record, but isn't wishing failure for everyone involved kind of immature?

And for what it's worth, I think JR is all class. He's probably the kind of guy who either says nice things about someone, or doesn't say anything at all. I think he's also the kind who wouldn't throw his coach under the bus for the consequences of decisions that he made.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
