No teams fighting over Fox?

[philp]

haha, we're retarded

"I wanna dip my ballllllllllls in it!!!"

Ha ha! I can see it now. I was cracking up watching that thinking it said what I thought it said.

The reaction of the people in the background is hilarious.

No coach has really found a home yet (Frazier doesn't count). It is still relatively early. Revisit this thought in about another week.

Raiders need a coach

Raiders need a coach

Not an option (bad prior history).

"Fox won't be on the market for 5 minutes" was practically the catchphrase of the self-styled pragmatists here a season ago.

you don't post enough in the panthers forum

[PhillyB]

how does this even pass as an argument?

the only guy being "fought over" right now is harbaugh, and i don't think anybody ever actually suggested fox would be fought over. it's nothing more than a purposeful mischaracterization of an opinion to drive home a point. of course the OP's post was strategically snarky/non-committal in its approach, so this can't really be rubbed back in his face if fox does land a decent job. well done.

D Cord at best.

There were references (on this board, on ESPN, in person around proverbial water coolers with homers I work with) all over to Fox being snapped up immediately after Carolina cut ties with him almost since it became clear we were not going to resign him. It's not been a recent phenomenon...

...just the fact that not only is he unemployed but doesn't seem to be a serious candidate for any HC jobs at the moment says that those references were wrong.

I think fox is a HC coach again and have stated my reasons. I never stated 5 minutes or even this year. Coughlin took a year off in between jobs and many coaches do.

[Jhyler12]

maybe he will be our DC....

:yikes:

I don't really understand what makes people say that Fox and Fisher are some of the best coaches in the NFL.

Is it because they have both coached for a long time in one spot because the owners of the teams they are with are not as easily swayed by public opinion?

They are both average HC's at best.

They took their teams to one super bowl, and was lucky to have amazing teams that year with amazing heart. After that, everyone thought they were shoe-ins as great coaches.

Not sure that a coach that has 3 winning seasons out of 9 is even an average head coach, more like a sometimes lucky one.
