how does this even pass as an argument?

the only guy being "fought over" right now is harbaugh, and i don't think anybody ever actually suggested fox would be fought over. it's nothing more than a purposeful mischaracterization of an opinion to drive home a point. of course the OP's post was strategically snarky/non-committal in its approach, so this can't really be rubbed back in his face if fox does land a decent job. well done. :rolleyes:

There were references (on this board, on ESPN, in person around proverbial water coolers with homers I work with) all over to Fox being snapped up immediately after Carolina cut ties with him almost since it became clear we were not going to resign him. It's not been a recent phenomenon...

...just the fact that not only is he unemployed but doesn't seem to be a serious candidate for any HC jobs at the moment says that those references were wrong.

I don't really understand what makes people say that Fox and Fisher are some of the best coaches in the NFL.

Is it because they have both coached for a long time in one spot because the owners of the teams they are with are not as easily swayed by public opinion?

They are both average HC's at best.

They took their teams to one super bowl, and was lucky to have amazing teams that year with amazing heart. After that, everyone thought they were shoe-ins as great coaches.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      Some people will shift the goal posts but he does still have to consistently help the team win, eventually. Not only help but be the reason. That's what franchise QB's do.

      Panthers OLB Pat Jones II makes bold claim about team's defense

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      One of the Carolina Panthers' newest defenders thinks their pass rush can go from worst to first. ESPN's David Newton recently chatted with outside linebacker Pat Jones II, who signed with the Panthers as a free agent earlier this offseason. Jones comes over from an awfully impressive Minnesota Vikings defense—one that ranked first in takeaways (33), fourth in sacks (49) and second in QB pressure rate (44.4 percent) this past season. And despite a historically-bad campaign by Carolina's defense in 2024, the 26-year-old seems to believe his new unit can be similar—or even better—than his last. "I definitely think we could do something similar, if not better," Jones said, via Newton. "I've seen it before, so I know what it looks like. I look around the building and see we have exactly what it takes to do that." https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/24/panthers-pat-jones-vikings-espn/83840667007/?taid=683219b347846900018fa10a&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter     It's the offseason.  Let hope spring eternal. (actually, I think we are much closer than this board thinks)

      5 total TDs against the Falcons was pretty good efficiency and he showed that ability to go off scripts and get 2 of those TDs rushing.  How many times did he deliver big time throws against pressure.  I agree we need to see this offense operate at high efficiency which starts with Bryce. When he does I hope the goals posts won’t shift to some other stat like QB sneaks lol
