Fox, Jake, Peppers, Moving on

With all that's happened this year which of the 3 do you think has the best chance of being gone this off season?

Richardson is putting Fox in a lame duck season, that people are saying is a nudge out the door. Does Fox go looking for security elsewhere?

Jake with all his problems and the play of Matt may push him to the bench late in his carrier, does he take the money and sit, or ride off into the sunset and retire?

Peppers who has already turned down a long term contract last year and said he wanted a change, sign with the panther's, move on, or do we tag him for a butt load of money?

I hope Fox is back and we give him a contract extension.. many of you forget how bad this team was before Fox. We are damn lucky to have a coach the calibur of Fox.. we are always competitive, and we have been to 2 NFC championship games in the last 7 years.. how many teams can say that in the NFC? Only 2. The Carolina Panthers and the Philadelphia Eagles.. what more can you ask from a head coach? Without a QB like Peyton Manning or Tom Brady on your football team, it is impossible to be in the playoffs each and every year.

For all of you asking for Fox's head. You guy's better be careful what you wish for.. the devil you know is better than the devil you don't.

Feel free to stand by Fox, if you want another 8-8 season. Hoooray Mediocrity!

A lot of you keep saying "Hooray Mediocrity".. but that couldn't be further from the truth. Over the past 7 years of Fox's tenure.. we have been an elite team overall. Yes, we have had some mediocre seasons.. but overall, we are not a mediocre team. I have already proved that we have been one of the most successful teams in the NFC of the decade. This is an undeniable fact.

You're confusing elite with competitive.

Elite teams don't fug the monkey every other year, nor do they wilt and fold whenever there are expectations on them.

We're a competitive team. We're nowhere near elite.

    • Yep, like I said, I don't mind guaranteeing them money, but make the contracts smaller amounts in order to minimize cap implications. I don't know about "half," the actual amounts, whether more or less than half, would have to be determined by the NFL and NFLPA (which will probably be highly contentious, if not "impossible").  I'm just for whatever leads to the best product on the field while also unaffecting my wallet. As an aside, the NFL owners are greedy bastards in my estimation. They're trying to keep a larger portion of the pie, but players' agents are greedy as well, and they've sewn seeds of greed among the players. It's not all their fault; we all know what our society has evolved into, but the NFL wants a bigger piece of our smaller pocketbooks and refuses to "negotiate" with us (that's why we don't have cheaper and more reasonable à la carte options to view games that they're gradually trying to migrate to paid TV), so fu<k 'em. And then on top of that we have guys trying to water down the product even more by feeding greed. Change the way things are done so that we can at least see players prove themselves on the field without throwing wrenches into the engine that pays guys that have proven they can play on a pro level.
    • So if one of the parents wants to buy the theatre group or the band lunch they should get banned?
    • OK, I didn't realize this was about high school, but...if I'm spending my personal money trying to help some kids out, then no one is going to tell me how to spend my money. I get enough of the government spending my money--allocating my tax dollars--to children who don't really need anything, and now they're trying to tell me how to spend my personal money? Sure, there are many other issues to consider and rabbit holes that we could go down due to ethical concerns because it concerns kids, and the need for transparency is extremely important, but maybe as opposed to trying to stop kids from benefitting in darkness, we need to open up the blinds (and blinders) a little bit so that they can benefit in the light. I get where you're coming from, but this is a loaded and layered issue, and I'm just trying to give you some food for thought.
