Wouldn't it be wild if Fox becomes the next Coughlin?

To be honest, Fox had a good QB for the majority of his career here. Rodney P. his first year was a good bridge QB. Then when Jake came in he was very good for us for years. Then, with Jake falling apart, Matt Moore came on and played very well so we thought we had our new guy. We drafted Clausen but that didnt work out, but honestly it wasnt as big a bust as some people make it out to be, simply because he was a second rounder. So Overall, there was never really a chance for Fox to want a franchise QB. Jake was exactly that for the majority of his time here. At the end, Moore came on strong and we didnt have a first round pick, so we drafted Clausen in the second.

i hate living in the past.

the discussion has more to do with a guy that is coaching in denver than him being an underachiever here.

it's time to move on.

once a player or coach has gone on from the panthers they essentially become irrelevant unless we are playing against them.

fox isn't a panther anymore. he's a bronco.

I don't get any vibe of "living in the past" from this topic. Its a discussion. Besides I'm sure we are all happier where we are right now than than before Fox left.

That point of view is correct if you don't care about the players. That's the way of seeing these players as property rather than people. If Thomas Davis is cut from the team I don't take his future actions as irrelevant because he doesn't wear a panther uniform; I still wish him well and hope he can turn is career around. (that is just an example)

Was thinking earlier today about Coughlin in Jacksonville, and how similar his stint there was to Foxy's here in Carolina.

Think about it.

1. Conservative D minded guys.

2. Widely respected around the league.

3. Emphasis on running game and D line play.

4. Both bumped out of their first HC jobs after being very inconsistant.

Honestly you could go on and on.

Now the only reason I think that Foxy could do as well as Coughlin, and possibly be more consistant year in and year out is the GM there, and the Division. Elway knows the importance of having an unquestioned starter at the QB position, and Foxy obviously knows about the D.

Food for thought.

yea lol they really emphasize running the ball with 89.2 yards per game

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves. And yeah, I'm a Heels fan but I'm specifically using Maye here because he's another young highly drafted QB not an established top tier player. Seems like a fair apples to apples comparison versus using a Mahomes or Allen.

      why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.

      McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
