Ron Rivera or John Fox?

Fox got canned in Denver and is probably getting canned in Chicago.  He just didn't evolve as the NFL passed him by.  Meanwhile, Rivera's squad is 5-0.  The strength of both is defense and Rivera is fielding a top defense while Chicago may have the worst defense in the league.

Who is the better coach at this point isn't even a debate.  It's Rivera all day long.

Fox failed to adapt to the NFL as it adapted around him. Ron finally showed the humility needed to save his job after the 13 Bufallo game.  

I still remember Troy Aikman during the 09 resurgence at the end calling it "Fox's best coaching job".  If Jake hadn't of gotten hurt at the later part of the season, we would have never put in Moore and not won any games at the end. 

Fox is mediocre at best.

Gantt specifically stated that he couldn't put Rivera in the higher tier with Lewis and Arians because he only has one playoff win.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Arians doesn't have a single playoff win as head coach...

Short term Fox (contrary to popular belief) has some ingenuity.  

BUT

Rivera is soooo much more in tune with his players and staff.  I think Rivera is on the same career trajectory as a Bill Cower.

Fox can win you a game tomorrow, Rivera will build you a powerhouse from the inside out.

    • Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?
    • Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.
    • Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
