The John Fox Mentality. Cmon

John Fox is off drinking Coors but his mentality is alive and well in the Carolinas, (and the Huddle). His mentality of "playing it safe" worked only 3 out of the 9 years he was a coach here. 3! That's it. But for some reason we still want to play it safe and not take any chances. Some people seem ok with being 7-9 or 8-8 the majority of the time.

We have a NEW coaching staff with a NEW philosphy who want to dictate games offensively. They want teams to adjust to the Panthers. The "punt is a good play" is no longer the mentality around here.

Mind you I am not against drafting a DT a need position but Dareus = Fairley = Taylor = Austin. All are solid but not special. One can be had of equal talent later on. Cmon

PP is a good to great corner but would you draft Revis or Flacco/Ryan/Freeman if you had to choose. Cmon

AJ Green more youth at a position where we have youth. 3 picks last year at WR and we want to pick another? Cmon.

Let us remember that we all want the same thing. A Super Bowl Championship. We've played it safe for long enough without winning... time to try it another way. Cmon

who do you think?

Why do people bring up a 2-14 record and being a winning team when talking about Cam? If we draft Cam, our record won't magically be better all of a sudden and there ARE other ways to win even if we don't chose Cam.

I am all for taking chances, Cam so be it but that doesn't mean all chances end in reward, so let's not assume that just yet.

But playing it safe up until now hasn't either.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      You sound slow. Bryce Young is 24. Brees didn’t do a think until he was 25. Russ was a 24 year old rookie placed in the most ideal situation ever

      To answer the thread title directly Bryce is getting credit for game winning drives when he doesn’t throw a pass. He gets credit for game winning drives when it’s just a field goal after a Daniel jones fumble. Yeah Bryce is going to get blame when he can’t outperform Tyler shough. Sword cuts both ways.

      Don't know if I'd go that far. It was still Reich in charge at the time (who I, like many, still believe would have preferred Stroud) and the phrase they kept using to describe Bryce was "point guard".  In football terms that translates to a West Coast style quarterback, which is what Bryce was (and is).
