Amazing

This is the big name candidate we've been waiting for. It seems the search is in high gear.

He seems the most quaified out of the group. I wouldnt mind this at all as long as he can get a good OC.

I wouldnt be displeased with Fox at all. He is not my first choice but definitely on my list. I think he has been a part of bad QB play for years now, Delhomme hasnt been good for a long time and he was able to make it look a lot better than it was down there with great running back play and solid defense. I would be interested to here what he has to say.

THIS man, is our hope for 2011.

Out of all the coaches that are on our radar, he is the one i want.

I agree with most he has not had a QB in Carolina. He is a Defense guy that we need to help Wink if we decide to keep him.

John Fox is a very good candidate and I think this year in Carolina should not be held against him. He has alot of experience and can get good play out of his players.

With his experience, it should certainly held to balance out the inexperience of Elway and Xanders in their new roles.

Although, I certainly hope McCoy goes back to being a QB coach if he is retained. He flat out stinks on ice as a playcaller.

I wouldnt be mad over this hire at all.

Wouldn't be a bad way to start...living in SC I got to watch John Fox a lot...he's not that bad of a coach...he just had zero personnel power nor a GM who knew what he was doing. They didn't have to many good drafts in Carolina. I don't think Fox was allowed to be involved to heavily in the draft. But he did a great job with what he had.

He's out of the Chuck Knoll coaching tree. I'm sure he'd bring some toughness to the Broncos right away! Another thing is that his players love him. They'll do anything to bust their butts for him. He might not be the best X's and O's guy (though he's not that bad) but as long as he can surround himself with great X's and O's guys he'll be just fine!

He would probably do well in the AFC West.

I agree. He will do a hell of a lot better of a job than McDaniels.

Fox actually would fit well with a number of teams with Denver being one. In their heyday they were known as a great running team that were able to grind it out with Terrell Davis when it got cold and snowy in December. There defense known as the Orange Crush was dominant when they made their Suoer Bowl runs with Elway. With a good offensive coordinator and a veteran like Orton as the quarterback, they could be a force with Fox particularly considering their competition.

The Broncos don't need to switch defenses yet again.

... I'm sure the words 'widely respected in league circles' came up....

:rofl:

I love that one.

[Dpantherman]

Remember: He wanted to draft The Golden Calf of Bristol, but we didn't have a first round pick

[Mr. Scot]

Makes sense. Their defense had issues.

The one guy is right about McCoy though. Wonder how much of the Panthers staff would wind up there if he gets the job.

[Jangler]

Shows they don't know...Delhomme was Fox' QB.

3 years and they will be in the know.

[Chaos]

This is Denver's ploy to secure the #1 pick in the 2012 draft. Dammit!

[Mr. Scot]

I wouldn't assume that Fox fails in Denver if he gets the gig.

Lots of guys do way better on their second head coach stint than they did on their first.

[Squirrel]

So much for Orton getting traded.

yup

[Happy Panther]

Just heard they might bring in Capers too.

Is Seifert sitting by the phone??

[Brooklyn Bully]

LOL at people making fun of this because they blame Fox for how our players played on the field. Now...if they wanted Moore or Clausen? That's a laugh.
