Knowing Foxy, he will ultimately decide to keep The Golden Calf of Bristol long term.

true. once a guy has shown that he can be successful for one short moment fox will ride that guy until either he's cut from the team by the FO or fox is fired.

"it worked once for a few weeks....it should always work."

just think...if fox hadn't been forced to start The Golden Calf of Bristol by the FO cutting orton from the team, The Golden Calf of Bristol would never have gotten a chance to show the potential that fox will be counting on for years, even if it stalls him out at a winning season every other year (if they are lucky).

early success is the worst thing that can happen for fox or at least for the team that he's coaching because then he spends the rest of the time trying to do it again with the same people regardless of how ineffective they and their scheme become.

he'll peak early just like he did here and then ride that barely above average wave for years.

Both Fox and Elway have said that they are skrewed if The Golden Calf of Bristol is gonna run a normal offence.

So the question is if they will (and can ) continue to run and run and run and run.

at some point there is going to be a defensive blueprint made by a team against The Golden Calf of Bristol, making their read-option passing offense obsolete. It's then up to The Golden Calf of Bristol to improve his mechanics and start becoming more of a passer.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?

      It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
