Im sick of all the Fox hate .

Please just stfu

I think Fox has been a very good coach for a lot of years for us. It is time to part ways with him but why does it have to be so gd nasty with some of you? Nothing better to do with your time or life than hate on some guy that is doing the best that he can with what he was given? Maybe he was dealt a crappy hand by management this year, but why and how can you blame it all on him? why would any coach purposefully do something to sabatage a team he has his name on?

There are some real dumb bastards on this board.

So if you owned a company and you had a employee/manager that was the best you ever had and everyone wants, and then you cut hours and put more work on top of your employees' work load, and then hire less talent and fire what he already has...why would you do that to piss him off and make him leave?.....

Its a two way street the Panthers and fox has been.

Being a very good coach means being outcoached by the opposition through out most of his career? Being a very good coach means not making any adjustments to a failed game plan? Being a very good coach means that your offense has been very predictable through out most of his career? Being a very good coach means that you hold on to a special teams coach for so many years despite being amongst the worst of the league? Being a very good coach means you already have the starting lineup on both sides of the ball made up in your head and it will stay that way even if someone better comes along? A very good coach says "a punt isn't a bad play"? A very good coach says "our goal is to be good 3 quarters of the season"? A very good coach says a QB averaging 3-4 INTs a game through 11 games "gives us the best chance to win"? A very good coach says "we want to limit them to field goals"? Being a very good coach means 3 winning seasons out of 9?

Mike McCarthy had the youngest team last year. Packers went 11-5. Raheem Morris has the youngest team this year. Bucs are 6-3. Fox has no excuse. Having a young team is not an excuse for Fox's piss poor coaching and outdated football philosophy.

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
