John Fox thinks we pass on Cam Newton

[panthers55]

Now we get to see how much of Hurney's decisions are his own or similar to what Fox always wanted. Fox would never take Newton and is likely to take Dareus if he is there at number 2.

I wonder if Fox agreed we should take Clausen last year as well as Pike. How about Edwards?? Seems at least last year Hurney did his own thing and didn't follow Fox's lead like in the past.

I couldn't give 2 sh!ts what John Fox has to say about our team.

But give him credit...he hasnt had the chance for a good QB to be drafted during his tenure here.

[Mother Grabber]

Why does he keep commenting on a Team he no longer coaches?

He has separation anxiety.

[Mother Grabber]

I think John Fox is fired after next season

He definitely won't get 9 years there, that's for sure. I say he's on the hot seat after two, and gone in 3.

How so?

I was mostly being a smartass, but I do think this team has turned away from the old "Fox way" of doing things. I don't think Fox has much in the way of inside information and I do think that if Hurney was sold on Newton he'd be the choice. I think that Hurney does believe that you need a QB in this league now. But is Newton that QB? Dunno. I think he wants Dareus himself but he isn't sure he'll be there. Maybe he's hoping weighing in will somehow cause an early announcement (but seems unlikely).

He may also be trying to put it out there because NFL teams made trades in advance of the draft (obviously with the caveat that player must be there) so this could be a way of getting people to make some calls.

boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

That's why his ass is in Denver and not here! I think he's calling out Hurney... he's using reverse psychology to make Hurney pick newton so that Dareus is there for him to gobble up. Who really cares though?

I can guarentee that for the first time in a long time Fo will have NOTHING to do with our draft... Let's see how we do without him

[PantherDude]

I would assume that if he's asked a question, he answers it... and since it's not the team he's coaching, he can answer honestly. :D

Yeah. I mean, is someone trying to keep asking him about his old team instead of asking him about his current team he's coaching now?? :p

He definitely won't get 9 years there, that's for sure. I say he's on the hot seat after two, and gone in 3.

Doubt it. I think he will last longer more than you guys think. More than McDaniels for sure. :D :D

Makes sense.

[Grammer]

Just saw it on NFL Network. He said, "I know Hurney, and I am not sold he will take Cam Newton. I think they will take Dareus". This would explain why the Broncos are looking for trade down options.. they don't think Dareus will be on the board. Anyways, thought that was interesting to hear Fox's take.

Fox is more knowledgable about our team needs than anyone.

excellent news.

fug newton

sry foxy...the days of playing it safe and being average are over...hurney's grabbing the bull by the horns and humping it into submission from now on!

It's not good to hold it in.

I hear it comes out the other end.
