John Fox on Broncos radar

[God]

expect The Golden Calf of Bristol to regress terribly

I don't have huge problem with Fox like a lot of you do. I remember him making our team respectable as soon as he took over. I hope wherever he goes, he finds success (AFC West is nice since we don't play them very often).

Even after he kept Delhomme in the playoff game and allowed him to make 5 interceptions?

I was more pissed at the play calling of the OC abandoning the run game after that first drive.

Foxy is well liked by his players. But to be successful, he has got to change...make adjustments......something he was not able to do in Carolina.

I think he blames JR for his failure....doubt he makes change right away. Denver wants him....go for it.

Your legitimately stating that one move should negate his entire body of good work.

3 winning seasons out of 9???????

Remember this year, he was setup to fail. His first year, no one would have expected him to have a winning season, but going 7-9 is very impressive after taking over 1-15 team (we could have won a lot more games in 2002, lost a few very close ones). We were competitive in all the other years. So, we could have been in WAY worse shape over those 9 years.

No. I'm stating that John Fox makes poor decisions.

Not good work as in "Hey! Good work!"

But good work as in "These are the good things he accomplished while here, and a singular negative can hardly negate them"

The bottom line is hardly a measure of his performance overall.

Heck, you can cross of one of those losing seasons simply because he got us when we were 1-15.

[TarPanther9180]

No. I'm stating that John Fox makes poor decisions.

What about making the decision to start Delhomme in the 2nd half of that Jacksonville game?

Don't forget his first several years. He was a good coach...he was just a lame duck coach his last two seasons.

A good coach would have done better with this team. As JR said, " We have the worst record but we do not have the worst players."

This team has been under-coached for years.

[Jangler]

Well, not bringing in a FA QB is on Hurney. But still...

[Brooklyn Bully]

so we are still gonnas defend Fox? Okay... Kept Delhomme two years after Tommy Jone and the offense didn't change with a new OC, but yeah it's the players on the field...

A coach can only do so much. He can't throw it for Jimmy or Moore, he can't help Gross block, he can't help LaFell catch, he can't back up Marshall and Godfrey on a deep ball, he can't not draft Armanti, he can't not accept the crap his boss decided to do to the team, he can't put stick-em on Goodson's fumbly hands, and he can't play DT.

What he can do is be a mediocre life long coach on a mediocre team. But yeah HAHAHAHAH OMGZZZZZZZZ THE BRONCOSSS ARE TEH DUMBZZZZZZZ!! THEYS GUNNNA GO 0-16 NOW!!!!!
