John Fox getting mad

About criticism his staff has gotten for their role in developing The Golden Calf of Bristol. Still think it was really his decision to start him?

"As a coach or decision-maker in an NFL building, you don't care what round they're drafted in, you don't care who drafted them," Fox said. "You don't care if they're short, fat, whatever. You just care: Can they play? So all that other stuff is poppycock.

"The problem is, there's so much misinformation. For people that study it, you'd see that we've probably had more shotgun or spread offense than anybody in the league over the last two weeks. We're up 30% of what we were in the first four games.

"The goofy thing is, it's almost like if he doesn't have success it will be anybody's fault but his. It's almost that kind of polarizing thing. They'll say it could be his supporting cast, or the type of plays. At the end of the day, we are what we are. We're doing everything we can to win, and we're finding out about a young quarterback, good, bad or indifferent."

He must hate The Golden Calf of Bristol about right now. I don't get it dude, I mean obviously Kyle Orton isn't a pro bowl QB or anything, but there is no way that he's not better than The Golden Calf of Bristol at this point. A bad situation indeed for Foxy.

oil and water.

i couldn't think of a worse situation for fox and a worse coach for that situation.

we are not denver broncos fans, though. fox is not our concern. we have fortunately moved on from him and i imagine it's only a matter of time before broncos fans are saying the same thing.

It is true though. John Fox doesn't have the offensive innovation to utilize a player like The Golden Calf of Bristol. He isn't going to be a classic drop back passer.

At this point I don't think The Golden Calf of Bristol is a legit NFL QB but he has certain attributes that could be utilized to at least get them through the year.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
