(Will you make other changes to the starting lineup?): We have that right every week.

(Do you foresee any?): I don’t try to foresee, just evaluate.

Isn't that what got us into this mess?

(Do you anticipate you’ll have an announcement Wednesday about who will start at quarterback vs. Tampa Bay?): We’ll have to wait and see what Wednesday brings. I mean, today is Monday. I hope I’m here Wednesday. I hope you are, too.

Wednesday? We talkin' 'bout Wednesday? Wednesday?

If Fox is gone next year I'll surely miss his press conferences.

(Will you make other changes to the starting lineup?): We have that right every week.

(Do you foresee any?): I don’t try to foresee, just evaluate.

(Specifically, what finger is it?): It’s a right hand finger. That would not be the thumb.

(Do you not want to say what finger you’re dealing with?): No, because we don’t have to.

(Why do you believe you've continually had difficulty getting Steve Smith involved? He had one catch for 5 yards.): He had one in the end zone I remember.

(Did you think it was a touchdown?): Obviously, it wasn’t.

(Do you anticipate you’ll have an announcement Wednesday about who will start at quarterback vs. Tampa Bay?): We’ll have to wait and see what Wednesday brings. I mean, today is Monday. I hope I’m here Wednesday. I hope you are, too.

:lol: Hate the man all you want but he's brilliant with the press.

Sounds like he doesn't have his story straight and doesn't want to end up with his foot in his mouth.

I really think Fox may be mentally ill.

I understand a certain amount of discretion, but why wouldn't you say which finger was broken? Why wouldn't you say what's wrong with Peppers hand?

I would think the league would frown on coaches being so smug and belligerent with the media (and by extension the fans). The league requires coaches and players to make themselves available for the media, wouldn't you also think the league would monitor the conduct of coaches and players during their interactions with the media?

Not to get political, but Fox reminds me of Cheney and Rumsfeld... he honestly doesn't think it's any of our damn business.

      OTA's

      By strato · Posted

      People were discussing the new backup QB in comparison the the starter.  Neither has anything close to a cannon.  Video was posted of them throwing.  If people can’t be free to express their opinions without being put on a list of posters who have ruined this place we have a bad situation here. People trying to silence  criticism of the QB.    Maybe actually post about the other players instead of about the other posters. That is where it went off the rails.

      That's true and we're definitely going to hear more about it as summer progresses. But at the end of the day all of the progress we've made on the roster as a whole will only matter if our passing offense can emerge from the basement of the NFL. In 2023 it was 32 out of 32 in 2024 it was 30th out of 32 and last year it was 26th out of 32. And early in the season we relied heavily on a career year from Rico Dowdle who is no longer on the roster. This is only reinforced by the fact that we (depending on how one views it) effectively took playcalling out of Dave Canales hands and brought in another offensive mind. The elephant in the room isn't going anywhere no matter how much we may not like it.
