When I listened I don't think he meant that literally. He was talking about teams taking a chance on VY. Then he mentioned all the teams that were rumored to be interested or people thought should be interested.... So he insinuated that had we taken a chance on Vick (Like teams should take chance on VY) Then coaches like Fox would not have been fired, due to someone giving vick and his talents a chance.

What Dukes meant is......

Fox's was not retained

Fox was not retatined b/c of a horrific end to his contract

If Carolina would have got Vick who was avaliable

Carolina would have won games and Fox would have been kept his job.

But having Fox and Vick would be a nightmare....Dukes is a retard. We are moving in the right direction.

We have all discussed Fox's weaknesses before. Regardless of 2-14, or Vick, or anyone else, Fox was going to be gone.

He wasn't exactly the second coming of any of the great coaches of his era; but, he was paid like one.

It was time.

Smartest thing that Denver did was not let Fox staff a offense, he was not allowed to touch it; but, even with that, our defense was porous as well.

Fox always played not to lose vs. playing to win. I'm glad he is gone, and TEs, couldn't use them in the offense, couldn't defend them on defense.

As I told a customer of mine, who lives in Denver and plays FF, just pick any TE playing against Fox's defense. You are guaranteed at least 6 points every week.

Well.... we should of signed Vick but I am not thinking about that right now. I am thinking about the possibilities with Newton and Rivera.

The future is bright. I don't have time to think about what might have been, I am too busy dreaming about what we might be.

lmao when I think of a coach who could use Vick's unique talents to the fullest I think of John Fox.

I don't like Duke either..... But he kind of just threw Carolina in to prove a point. He was really arguing about teams taking a chance on VY because he has so much talent.

Can you imagine Fox sitting in Denver looking at how much money Carolina is spending? If he wasn't on talking terms with Richardson before it hasn't gotten any better. Rivera is being given a much better chance to win than Fox was in the past few years. Then again Rivera's coaching personnel picks seem much better than Fox's at least on paper.

Ok.. that makes more sense. Jamie Dukes imo is still an idiot, however he could very well be right about this.
