"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

      Also, you don't really get good value by drafting a center in the first.

      First off, we haven't been ignoring the defense. We have drafted several defensive players, but, perhaps more importantly, we have added good pieces in free agency. Secondly, the offense was still kinda bad (27th or so depending where you look at). You can't just say we can't pick an offensive guy while acknowledging that the offense wasn't good. Everything is on the table. Like I said above, it seems kind of counterproductive to say that we shouldn't draft an offensive player high unless they're at certain positions. The offense was mediocre at best. Sure, we had an uncanny knack to win some close games at opportune times, but the offense wasn't really good. To me, it makes little sense to put limitations on who/what we should draft when we need an upgrade at so many positions. What you look at is trying to get the best value--bang for your buck so to speak--and that's the way it should be. D-Mo has used FA to set up the draft in order not to be pigeonholed into anything, and that's the way that it should be.

      Hubert has plenty of money. I don't hate the guy. I think he a legit good guy. This is Ron Rivera all over again for me. It's just very obvious a coaching change is needed and it audka we gottaboart ways with a good guy and I'd much rather it work out but the same issues appearing again and again year after year are clearly shouting what needs to happen. With that said, if we hire Todd Golden, that's it. I'm out. I'd greatly prefer to just keep getting disappointed by Hubert. I can at least stand to root for that.
