San Diego would never fire its head coach after a season in which they reached the playoffs.

:shocked: uh... they fired Marty remember after going 14-2

You know with some franchises, just getting to the playoffs isn't enough. Understandably so with Chargers since they never won one

If Fox ends up in SD, I sure as heck hope that we don't sign Norv turner to replace him! The guy is terrible, TERRIBLE, at preparing his teams...

This man would be my first pick. Leslie Frazier he would more then likely keep Meeks as well.

Who cares Fox couldn't coach himself out of a cardboard box even if he tried. The only reason for his success of late is D-will, J-stew and Smith.

Oh... because I'm sure that's why he has never coached a team that has been the victim of the TV Special "C'mon Man!" that enough is a testament to his coaching ability. You can only force a man to do so much.

Yes, i hate the decision just as much as the next guy to keep Delhomme in, but after his #2 QB went down (McCown) I can see why he waited so long if he had no faith in his #3 QB.

John Fox cannot go out and play WR for Mushin Muhammad, Kenneth Moore, or Dwayne Jarret through the first 8 games of the season in which they couldn't produce. And the running game wouldn't be as effective as it was on its limited carries if we didn't open it up just a nudge with the pass. Sure we ran alot against 8-man boxes and were successful, but how long through a game would that success last before the other team got lucky on 1st and 2nd down? Hell, remember the 1st game against New Orleans? We tried to just run it the whole game and got slaughtered at the end because of FUMBLES! Then when Delhomme finally throws a good pass Dwayne Jarret can't catch a simple floater. We get inside the 5-yard line in the 3rd quarter to ice the game and we can't pound it in, same against the Redskins. And we already know our Offensive Line ain't poo, so we gave our team the best chance of winning by calling those plays and they still couldn't come up with it.

No, you can't blame Fox for the Saints lost, or the Buffulo lost from a coaching stand point if you think about it: Kasey missing all those field goals against Buffulo, Stewart unable to convert a 4 & 1, Stewart unable to punch it in inside the 5 against the Saints. Gamble unable to defend a shitty, young WR for 2 quick TD's against New Orleans. Yes, blame him for the Cowboys lost, the Atlanta lost, the Philadelphia lost, he didn't have his team prepared in the beginning of the season, but last I checked, it's how you finish the season that really matter the most, and the Jets are proving that again this year. He was in perfect position this year as far as how he had his team playing by the end of the year, we just were a bit too short early.

Doubt it though. John likes to run... I dont see with Rivers you can't let him be the first option to turn to

But then again, they just lost. Maybe become the team that upset the hell outta them on their home field

no we will trade fox and delhomme for rivers, problem solved. thats what i heard anyway.
