if Fox gets fired...

He could be a D coordinator.....Ron Meeks has been employed for years.....he really doesn't bring much. If a HC wants to run a fairly safe and conservative D...Fox wouldn't be a bad guy as a DC. I don't see him jumping right into another HC gig right away.

Fox would be a head coach on another team moments after we fire him. That's if he's fired and I don't see that happening.

Can't think of one team in the NFL who would want Vanilla Fox (Bengals POSSIBLY), if they do then they are absolutely idiots.

I hear this from the media so often whenever they mention Fox being fired and I just don't see the logic.

NFL Executive: "Quick Fox just got fired! We could use a soft approach towards the game of football with an extra touch of ineffectiveness! Get his ass down here now!!"

Nah, you gotta look at how many opening there will most likely be....and how many would want to go conservative. If they want to go conservative Fox will find a job but it is pretty much known league wide that Fox is the easiest coach to gameplan for when he comes up on the schedule. The league has changed......coaches with Fox's mindset are no longer the norm. Fox has very good stats....and stats mean nothing per Fox. If you evauate what he does and doesn't do.....it isn't very impressive.

Me neither. I haven't heard of any coaches on the hot seat recently, but maybe one of the bottom teams in the league might take a chance on him. Like someone else said, I see him having more opportunities getting a DC job.

    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
