2009 is Fox's "Put up or Shut up" season....

Is it John Fox's last season with the Panthers?

With Marty, Holmgren, Shanahan, Gruden, Billeck, and Cowher all sitting on the sidelines, this season is a "ALL IN" for Fox.

Thats a hell of a Super Bowl winning Coach bank to draw from.

With the Panthers never having back to back winning seasons and the huge let down in the playoffs Fox knows he needs to deliver.

One thing is certain, If I was wanting to make a coaching change, 2010 would be the year to do it.

...We will see.

I don't think so. If injuries cause the season to crumble I think he'll be here. If we do get a new coach it will have to be someone who doesn't overhaul the whole system. We've got the talent to go far for a while. I like Marty and Billeck, I think Cowher is a bit overrated. However I'd like Fox to take us to a couple superbowls so I'd be happy to stick with him.

well if we go super bad like 6-10 or less, fox is on the first bus out of town

if we do 7-9 to 10-6 and miss the playoffs i think one more seson better win

If we make the playoffs and do poorly again....one more season better win

If we win the super bowl.....well i guess he is going to be around for a few more years

Fox is the ideal coach for this team and managment loves him. I don't see fox leaving until the team puts together two crummy seasons in a row.

I'd venture a guess that he is safe this year even if the team finished with 3-4 wins. Due to the fact that he turned the 1-15 team around in a two year span.

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
