Search Carolina Panthers' history for hints to hiring Fox replacement

I'm sick of seeing a reference to the Panthers being modeled after the Steelers franchise in just about every written piece on this team. Am I the only one?

Fug Pittsburgh.

Doesn't bother me a bit. What if they were saying we were modeled after the Cowboys? Now that would probably make me have many sleepless nights.

At times it can be a bit annoying when conclusions are drawn on what the Panthers might do after just 3 Head Coach hirings in the Franchise's history.

If we want to be the Steelers then we need to find the best fuging DC to ever coach and hire him cause thats whats kept them alive all these years.

Well not completely, the Steelers won 62 regular season games when Lebeau was in Cincy from 97-03 and made the playoffs 3 times.

Also, Lebeau was the DC only during 95-96 and from 2004 on for the Steelers.

I agree! Carolina Panthers need to forge their own identity and stop trying to be a Pittsburgh clone.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
