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.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
