(sorry if this has already been post...I looked)

He does have a point. But I don't know if I can really buy into it. I'm absolutely disgusted at the moves this off season(or lack thereof), the play on the field, the playcalling, the coaching...hell just about everything. But to think about how much has to fall in place to make a superbowl champion I just don't know if I'm ready to completely jump ship.

And Jeff Fisher's team is still playing hard for him. It's apparent from the way the Titans are playing that Fisher still has the respect of his team. I'm not sure that same could be said for Fox.

I actually agree with him in that Fisher and Cowher and Fox and Coughlin are all the same type of coach. The dilimea is do you stick with Fox and have a Fisher type situation (still trying to get back to a Super Bowl) or fire him and see him end up winning a championship with another team like Coughlin did.

I personally think Fox is still a great coach and could be the next Couglin but that is a risk that needs to be taken. Sometimes a change just needs to happen.

F**k Gantt. He's good at giving information, but when he gives an opinion he's a total douche. He does nothing but suck off Fox and Delhomme no matter how bad they are and puts himself on this high horse while looking down on any one else who actually has a brain and recognizes when there's a problem on the team.

I agree with you about a team playing hard for a coach being important. I honestly didn't think the guys were slacking against Dallas. They just aren't playing well. They are playing sloppy football.

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
