A bright spot if we end up losing Sunday...

Finally a reality...if Cleveland doesn't hire him. Updated with some additional comments from this year.

It means we are going to be in for some new Coors Light commercials starring our ex-Coach, John Fox. I'm picturing it now.

Commercial One

*The scene is the typical press conference*

Coors Light Guys: "Hey Coach Fox, what do you think about the Coors Light can where the mountains turn blue when the beer gets cold"?

Fox: "It is what it is."

Coors Light Guys: "Is Coors Light the most refreshing beer you've ever had?"

Fox: "It is what it is."

Coors Light Guys: "Do you say anything other than *in a mocking Fox voice* "It is what it is"?

Fox: "I don't really know how to answer that question. We'll have to go back and look at the tape."

Commerical Two

Coors Light Guy: Coach Fox, how come there was only a six pack of Coors Light available for everyone to share at this press conference?

Fox: "We've got a budget, and that had something to do with it".

Coors Light Guy: Coach Fox, we can't find the delivery guy to order more Coors Light. Did this budget that you're referring to mean that he no longer has a job?

Fox: "You'd have to ask someone in the personnel department about that".

Coors Light Guy: "Do you think we can find a way to get some more Coors Light or this more of a day to day situation?"

Fox: "Day-to-day means kind of where we’re at today is where we are, and we’ll take it day-to-day."

Coors Light Guy: "This isn't much of a party without Coors Light".

Fox: "We are what we are and that is what I'm trying to change so we're not that"

Coors Light Guys: "Coach Fox,we know beer won't go on sale till 12,and it's gameday,and were all heading to the Huddle Tailgate to eat some Turds,but someone has opened your 18 pack of cold Coors Light and drank two of them" Coach Fox: "I think there is a sense of urgency every week. There are only 16 of these and they are all important"

Coors Light Guys: " Coach Fox,do you,your coaches and friends know that cold Coor's Light has almost no calories,and has it written right there on the label?" Coach Fox: "That stat doesn't alarm me as much as it might the everyday fan or you guys (media) or people who don't look at it every day

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
