one quote that sums up john fox perfectly

Goodson is good, i knew that. he has developed into a little surprise this year. But really, when we have nothing to play for, i mean absolutely nothing, the supposedly "stars" come out in Carolina. Look at last year with Matt Moore, now we gotta another 'superstar' with Goodson? I like it, but if he does it again next year I will be sold.

Since we drafted goodson he showed initially that he had great hands(receiving wise) and great straight line speed. He had no power whatsoever, little vision, and barely any lateral moves.

That didn't really get too much better during preseason.

Nobody knew he would break out like he did, carrying tacklers and juking falcons/browns out of their shoes. When you're buried behind two of the best backs in the league who are the lifeblood of the team, you won't get very many chances.

There isn't anything wrong with that quote.

Besides, the only quote that will ever, EVER sum up John Fox will be the classic

"It is what it is".

Goodson is most definitely close to being an every down back, but not quite. He cannot block for poo and god forbid a team blitz against us. He has slight fumbling issues. He has already sustained a concussion, which could mean more to come. He is also very young, so there is a lot of room to improve, which he will. I don't think he will ever have that great blocking abilities, he is really just too small (and don't bring up smitty he is a freak). However Goodson NEEDS to be played in the slot, screens and TB he is a dangerous weapon and Fox does not utilize him to his fullest, I think if he was under another coach with a little less conservatism he could easily serve as an every down back.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • 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.
