Fox hasn’t learned a single thing. Have fun Denver.

Today while watching PTI on ESPN, Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon were completely perplexed by a decision John Fox recently made. That decision being John Fox declaring Kyle Orton as his starting quarterback. Here are a few of the comments made by the PTI duo.

NFL Finds Way To Shut J.R.’s Yap

The NFL and the NFLPA are in day 3 of a what they hope will be a 7 day marathon of CBA talks.  Supposedly, both sides hope to come out of this with a new agreement that will keep football flowing and free agency ready to start on time.  I don’t buy it.  I can’t help thinking that the presence of a national mediator from the US Government is suddenly going to get these...

Who Do You Support In This CBA Mess?

Simple question, not so simple answer.  No in betweens however.  Who do you support in this CBA mess?  The owners?  Or the players? Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.

Rae Carruth Stays Behind Bars

It’s been a long time since former Carolina Panther WR Rae Carruth ran down a football pass from a quarterback.  It’s been a long time since the troubled and now jailed WR peered out a window and didn’t have to look through bars to see the land beyond the stone walls of a prison cell.  Hell for that matter, it’s been a long time since Rae Carruth has been...

Dear Mr. Richardson…..

First of all, let me start by saying as a native of the Tarheel State, Thank You sincerely for giving us a NFL team, and not only that, a team we can be proud of. Secondly, I will point out that I personally have tried to say away from the rhetoric of “He doesn’t care about the team….he is a greedy owner” and so forth. I will continue to regard you with the...

Richardson’s Mouth Could Be Problematic For CBA

Jerry Richardson is a lot of things.  Some fans like him, some fans don’t.  We know that former HC John Fox likely doesn’t and new first time HC Ron Rivera does.  A persons perception of the man will vary person to person.  Still, when it comes to something as monumental as the CBA, one thing stands out. Jerry Richardson is on the negotiating team and he is absurdly...

It’s not a literal question but a hypothetical one.  It’s no secret that player agents can literally “set the market” so to speak.  More often than not, that large payday that is doled out on some free agent signing sounds much larger than the guaranteed portions actually are.  It’s an attempt to inflate the numbers.  Not so player “X”...

Possibilities in the Draft, pt. 2

It’s been a while since I posted part 1 of Possibilities in the Draft, but it’s time for part 2. I’ve also decided to continue focusing on QB’s until part 3. The Carolina Panthers, once again, need to address the situation known as their Quarterback. Most writers, and experts, believe that this will be done through Free Agency or Trades, but I see differently...

CBA Talks Break Down?

It sounds like one of those old 1980 war movies with the Russians.  The movie starts out with a few newspaper headlines.  ”The Russians invade Poland”.  ”China Backs U.S”.  ”Middle East In Turmoil”.  ”Peace Talks Break Down”.  Ok, so take out the Russian portion of those headlines and I suppose they are relevant today as well...

Beason To Get Better?

Jon Beason just put together another Pro Bowl caliber season and was rewarded with that by being a late entry into the Pro Bowl. Not only did Beason play, but he put in quite the day by picking off Matt Cassel late in the fourth quarter and taking it to the house. Many thought that when John Fox was at the end of his road in coaching the Panthers he wasn’t getting the maximum...

SB Lacked Excitement…Not Class

Did the Super Bowl leave you feeling less like you watched the big game and more like you simply watched two very good teams play football?  It did me.  The outcome was what I hoped for as I don’t like the Pittsburgh Steelers at all.  So to see Green Bay bring home Lombardi was a nice ending to the season.  But it left me hankering for something far more exciting. Sure...

Dallas Sure Can Throw A Party

If there was ever going to be argument against serving the Super Bowl in a cold weather stadium, Dallas should be the poster child of that argument.  Unfortunately the NFL will learn nothing from this mess, no more than they learned anything from the labor issues of other pro-sports.  So while Dallas may be hoping to get the weekend over with, cities like Indianapolis, next years...

1st & 15: Best Panther Game-The Results

Monday, I gave you the initial installment of “1st & 15,” (Read it here) where I proclaimed: The Best Panther Game Ever was the 2008 Season Opener Against the San Diego Chargers.  First, I might mention that a few of you, like Kuhndog86 and Easy A, agreed with me. Easy A said:  That last second touchdown led to holes in the walls and an injured panther fan...

Settle For Running Backs Coach

The issue is “Settle”d:  We recently brought you the news that popular running backs coach Jim Skipper would most likely not be returning to the Carolina Panthers.  Friday, the Panthers took away any question about this by hiring John Settle, 45, as the new running backs coach. For 20 years, Settle held the record as the all time leading rusher for Appalachian State...

Are You Ready For Some…Lock-Out?

The NFL and the NFLPA have less than a month, officially, to end their labor discord and ratify a new CBA.  You know it, I know, the players know it, and the owners know it.  Everyone knows it.  But the only two parties involved that can do anything about it, won’t.  That’s right, they won’t, and so, we here more and more talk of a lockout. The NFLPA through...

BREAKING NEWS: Panthers Hire Ricky Proehl

The Carolina Panthers have not had a reliable #3 receiver since Ricky Proehl left in 2005.  Well, now they brought him back! No, he won’t be out on the field catching balls, converting third downs, as so many fans were used to seeing from him during his 17-year NFL career.  Instead, he will be joining the staff has an offensive consultant working with receivers coach Fred Graves...
