Players comment on Fox's most disappointing season

When asked if this has been his most disappointing season ever, coach John Fox said. "Yeah, considering it took until this point to be double digit losses I would say that is a fair assessment.” Fox has never had a double-digit loss season in previous 20 years as an NFL assistant or head coach.

DE Charles Johnson on John Fox: "He's a good guy, man. He's the type of coach that you want to follow. Fox, you learn so much from him, just being around him and how he coaches. He treats you like a man, he respects you and he respects his players."

John Fox on how this year's 1-12 record affects his legacy as Panthers coach: “I think the staff, the players here and myself included I think we’ve done absolutely the best job we could possibly do. I will be able to look myself in the mirror when I walk away from here.”

More from TE Jeff King on John Fox: "All of us here in this locker room, it would serve us right to play hard for him because he has a good reputation and his word goes a long way around the league. As a person and a player that has been here five years, I love playing for him. I will continue to play hard for him because he deserves that.”

TE Jeff King on John Fox's legacy: "I have a tremendous amount of respect for him. Three more games or however long we are together, I’m going to fight my ass off for him. He’s that kind of coach. He’s always in his player’s corner, and that is all you can ask for.”

I still think he will be a HC again, likely soon...

Whats a player supposed to say? "Yeah, he really phoned it in this year". Yeah, smart, burn your bridges with a soon to be head coach of another team when you may be a free agent yourself soon.

Doesn't get much fluffier than this piece.

I actually think they genuinely like the guy, but okay.

      You are dictating a ‘settle’. Like you can only have one, you can’t have both. Fine if you  can only have one, it isn’t the worst choice. But it is settling by nature because there are people with both.  It is simple, we have limited ourselves by choosing a player who has narrower margins for error than guys with the traditional QB physical attributes that people came to so highly value. And some people are happy about that.  Truth has always been that we made it harder on ourselves than it had to be. As Parcels said, he needs to walk on water. That is expecting a lot. And we now have to feed that beast..    there is a fundamental divide here that will never resolve. Even if he elevates his play.
