Good move for both parties imo

[Mr. Scot]

I had a sudden flashback of a thread titled "John Fox to the Giants"

 

(longtime Huddlers will get that one)

Good hire for the Bears. He will improve that defense significantly Year 1, and rumor is he's bringing on Kyle Shanahan as his OC, who obviously has familiarity with Jay Cutler from his time in Denver.

[LinvilleGorge]

I was very frustrated with Fox in Carolina and obviously Elway was too here in Denver.  IMO, you can be a very good team under Fox, but you'll never be a great team under Fox. BUT, with that said, Fox and his mentality may be exactly what the Bears need right now. We've seen the Bears and Cutler trying to be a high flying offense. It didn't work. I think Cutler can be successful in a Fox system of pounding the rock and using the run and play action to setup the pass. Fox is a ball control coach, but he does like to setup the big play downfield with the run and Cutler and those WRs are perfect for that. If Cutler and those WRs can accept putting the ball in the air 25-30 times instead of 40+, it can work. Can Cutler and Marshall accept that though? Hell, can management accept that when they're paying Cutler like he's the second coming of Joe Montana?

Who is the Bear's punter?

Fox playing run, run, pass punt in cold windy Chicago?

Makes sense. Foxball heaven

[Cary Kollins]

Great fit.

 

 

Matt Forte is going to ball out.

[blackcat]

If he can't get it done in Denver with that D and Manning as his QB, he ain't gonna get it done anywhere else.....good luck Chicago.

[Mr. Scot]

[Mr. Scot]

So who wants to try and explain to Coach Fox what the word "emo" means?

[Mr. Scot]

Heh

 

Dante Rosario too.

[rayzor]

Heh

Dante Rosario too.

this will be the third time with rosario, won't it?

seems to be we do a lot of switching with the bears only i think we get the better of the trade offs.
