Ron Rivera or John Fox?

Fox got canned in Denver and is probably getting canned in Chicago.  He just didn't evolve as the NFL passed him by.  Meanwhile, Rivera's squad is 5-0.  The strength of both is defense and Rivera is fielding a top defense while Chicago may have the worst defense in the league.

Who is the better coach at this point isn't even a debate.  It's Rivera all day long.

Fox failed to adapt to the NFL as it adapted around him. Ron finally showed the humility needed to save his job after the 13 Bufallo game.  

I still remember Troy Aikman during the 09 resurgence at the end calling it "Fox's best coaching job".  If Jake hadn't of gotten hurt at the later part of the season, we would have never put in Moore and not won any games at the end. 

Fox is mediocre at best.

Gantt specifically stated that he couldn't put Rivera in the higher tier with Lewis and Arians because he only has one playoff win.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Arians doesn't have a single playoff win as head coach...

Short term Fox (contrary to popular belief) has some ingenuity.  

BUT

Rivera is soooo much more in tune with his players and staff.  I think Rivera is on the same career trajectory as a Bill Cower.

Fox can win you a game tomorrow, Rivera will build you a powerhouse from the inside out.

    • Going to put this out now….Koochie shutout tmrw   
    • Dude, its 13 points if you think about it. I guess you take away the three since they kicked the FG after the TD no call was upheld, but Eddie missed two very makeable kicks and they can't be whining about the run game since a fumble sealed the game! Starting to think a lot of people around here don't know football. I get it, it's a message board, but they come on and start threads and it seems like they don't watch the games. There are ESPN takes on here with people who are supposed to be diehards. 
    • Probably but he has flashed some.  He's a 2nd year player.   Certainly shown that he's an NFL QB.  Almost 3 years older than Bryce so not as much room for growth.   I'd say Bryce has the significantly higher ceiling.     And sure.   I agree.   He needs to continue to show this growth to get people to buy in. The Eagles is an outlier.  That game will be extremely ugly. I think his play has earned him the chance to compete for starting spot next year with whomever the team brings back.   And it has given the team the luxury of not feeling QB desperate in the draft.     ****Unless he completely falls off the planet again and reverts back to what he was, then it's QB time in the draft again***
