"Fox easily ranks as the best coach in Panthers history"

Despite his conservative nature, Fox easily ranks as the best coach in Panthers history.

During his seven-year tenure at Carolina, the Panthers rank sixth in total victories (including the postseason) with 68, trailing only New England, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and San Diego.

I know everybody wants to remember Arizona. However, this is what stuck out the most to me from Fowler's Remember Arizona article. I know we haven't won a Superbowl yet, but this is not a bad list to be on.

Suck on it Cowboy fans.

Stop with the positves. We all know Fox sucks, he is a meddling conservative fool, he is on the hotseat, he hasn't won a Super Bowl and everything else.

Did I miss anything??????

Bad breath? He never gives out any real information i.e. team secrets?

Fox has been steady...no major fluxuations. We've been 7-9 at worst and 12-4 at best. A couple of seasons though, a Dom Capers 4-12 or a Seifert 1-15 would have spelled the end of Foxy. Fortunately for Coach Fox he's yet to dip under that 7-9 mark, while a losing season it's the "best" losing season mark you can have only a game out of a non-losing season.

Top coaches have gotten fired for better results. Remember Tony Dungy getting canned in Tampa for only making the playoffs and not winning the Super Bowl. I bet Tampa is still kicking themselves for such a stupid move.

Fox has at least kept our team competative every season and I guess that's enough to hang on to him.

I think we are winning 7 at minimum a year because of Fox. I don't ever think he'll get us to the 10+ win echelon every season like a couple of coaches out there. However, that's the reason there's only a couple of coaches like that. Foxy is a 9-7 type coach +/- 2 games. That's good enough for me. Could we get a better coach? Yeah, but by running the risk of letting him go there would be a much higher chance of getting a worse coach in return.

good post. I admire your approach a a fan and how realistic you are. When you put it into that perspective it makes the game much easier to enjoy as it remove the craziness factor that says we have to be perfect. Getting a worse coach by changing him out is a bigger risk to a person who is happy with +/- 2 games though than a fan who thinks we should be winning that 10+ games a season. I am sure you understand that.

rep for your grounded outlook

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.

      Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
