A testy John Fox reversed course and admitted Panthers QB Jake Delhomme might need elbow surgery and that such a surgery would "thwart the majority" of his season. Delhomme wasn't available for comment.

John Fox will be a coordinator next season.......

October 1, 2007  05:58 AM ET

He is gonna get fired and its a shame....He will be the "hot" coach in the off season.....Giants maybe????

Vicious article. True, but vicious.

That means David Carr has to lead the O.

Giants??? I dunno....I was kinda pulling for Cowher...

The Panthers are going the way of the bears this season....nowhere...

There goes the season

Sucks for Fox. Unless Carr becomes a real qb, quickly, it might cost Fox his job.

yeah, but like a few others have said already, Fox won't be unemployed for long. I don't think he'll be a co-ordinator though. there will be enough vacancies this off-season for him to be able to get a fresh start somewhere, whether it be the Giants, or San Diego (they way they look right now) or Jacksonville, or wherever, John Fox will be a head coach somewhere next year

almost forgot: too bad about Delhomme - bad things happening to good guys is never something you like to see

October 1, 2007  09:16 AM ET

Heres Carr's chance- I've been waiting for him to have a chance to do something

October 1, 2007  09:23 AM ET

Somebody warm up the Carr b/c it's time for Carolina to get rollin'

October 1, 2007  09:28 AM ET

Carr Wreck in the making.

October 1, 2007  09:48 AM ET

He who would pun, would pick a pocket....or so they say....jeez, you guys are killing me....

Article's gone, and new one's up:

Hurney: Surgery not scheduled for Delhomme

Fox told a Fox Sports reporter that Jake would need surgery if not soon, then after the season.

Panthers GM Marty Hurney says this morning, no surgery scheduled, let rehab run it's course.

Why is everyone BUT a doctor commenting on whether he does or does not need surgery....This is going to end up being a rebuilding year for the panthers anyway at the rate they are going, so why not let him do what it takes to get back into the game next year...

Dame it steve smith will suck noe and hes on my fanatsy team

He has had some great years but his arm and body has little left. Get out while you can at least live somewhat healthy.

Who is he going to spend all his time yelling at if he bows out?

October 1, 2007  12:23 PM ET

Carr will get to prove it was the O-Line after all. I hope so, I like to look at him!
