John Fox to Bears

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?

    • We have without question one of the worst QB rooms in the league and your key concern is people having the audacity to be talking about it lol.
    • I saw this list crossing the screen waiting for any Panther.  Chubba, JC Horn and Hunt.  It was a crime to see so many that were not as good as these three.  ESPN is garbage anyhow.
    • Bingo!  We are on the same page.  Our scouting department was average under Hurney, but at least we hit hit it out of the park with our first rounders.  Our scouting department under Tepper's reign with his revolving doors of HCs and GMs has sucked because the scouts largely stay in place.  One or two may change every few years, but the core philosophy stays in place and I believe that to be heavily RAS influenced.    Looking the part of a football player (physical/athletic measurables) vastly outweighs putting on the tape and deep diving into his stats with our scouting department. Until we change that mindset, this team is doomed. Again, how many of us Huddlers (none of us are professional scouts) wanted McConkey over Legette? Yet, we went with XL.  Why?  RAS score, pure and simple.  If you put on the tape and look at the numbers without taking RAS into account, McConkey was the clear choice.
