Funny I don't remember that one and I remember most of the few Fox wins.

Did NE already have the season wrapped up?

Let's just say Fox never beat Brady or Bellinchek when it mattered and let it go at that.

One has multiple Super Bowls and the other doesn't.

it was week 2 2005 and one of my favorite wins of the fox era. it was a huge statement game after the week 1 loss to the saints.

Wrong again.

Fox beat Brady and Belichek early in the season that year. Probably one of the more memorable regular season games in Fox's time here.

It's amazing how much hate some of you have for Fox. The guy actually did a pretty decent job here, all things considered (and by all things considered, i'm talking about the vast number of pro bowlers who had season ending injuries and also coaching through Jake Delhomme and his complete melt down. Not to mention having the ability to bring in veterans completely cut off by an owner preparing for a lockout.)

Fox was a good coach, not great. But the way some of you guys paint him, you would think he was Rod Marinelli or Eric Mangini

there's a certain way i think about fox.

if he has his guys and is able to play his kind of game, he's a top ten coach in the league easy. if he's out of his comfort zone and has to adjust on the fly, though, he's toast as we saw many times.

that's why his denver teams are going to be so dangerous for a while. plenty of salty veterans and a few great young players. fox also doesn't seem to have the same kind of stranglehold over playcalling in denver that he did here and is somewhat insulated from making the same kind of mistakes.

For is a good coach. He thinks he's a great coach. He was paid like a great coach. I am sure he's a great guy.

...and he not had the great fortunate to have Manning in his lap right now, no one would be talking about him. He'd still be 8-8 with The Golden Calf of Bristol.

I don't have hate for anybody. All I know is I too am a season ticket holder and other than a few aberrations, the Panthers were always on the losing side of winning over the past 17 years, including this one.

I just don't want to make Fox out to be just oh so fabulous because Rivera sucks. To me Bellinchek is genius and he has the rings to prove them...rings, not ring...and multiple attempts at more.

      Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.

      Panthers Preseason

      Didnt Canales already say starters are playing in the pre season? either way extra reps dont hurt but im not one of those people that think playing in the pre season would have saved Bryce from an awful start.
