Coach A has two Super Bowl victories to his credit, each with a different quarterback, and both were blowout victories. He also has a couple of championship game losses. Until his final season, his winning percentage was the highest in NFL history.

Coach B has one Super Bowl loss to his credit, and one loss in the NFC Championship.

I bet if you took a poll on this board as to which coach is/was better, Coach B would get 95 percent of the vote.

Now turn it around...

Coach B did a wonderful job turning around his team and developing his rookie quarterback as a rookie head coach.

If you held the same poll, I bet Smith would get close to 50 percent of the vote.

Perspective is a funny thing.

If Foxwas fired I would get a little excited.

With the Players on the O-line and our RB's we will win a lot of games no matter who our coach is.

(i.e. atlanta)

I think Fox even at 12-4 is getting old around here. I was watching Mike Tomlin on the sidelines in todays game and I was just thinking about Fox's interviews, and just thought for a second what it would be like to have a coach who isnt always luke warm.

I think Fox is an 8-8 coach who rides the wave(or talent) as far as it will take him. I dont see him going any where and that makes me a little sad. This is the same guy who wouldnt start Williams over Foster.

This.

I think he doesn't say too much because he truly doesn't know that much, therefore he doesn't want to make himself look stupid.(even though he takes care of that plenty on the sidelines)

      Sellers is absolutely one to keep an eye on. Could be the next Cam or could be the next Anthony Richardson. Curious to see how he has progressed come this fall.

      I think Texas could go 0-12 and he would still go #1 based on his name and traits like you say.  But nusselman and sellers may be actually better qbs.    Man if bryce stinks it up this season its looking like a damn good year to swap out qbs.  Sellers highlights are just fuging jaw dropping

      I mean, the kid comes from a wealthy family. It's not like he needs the money. He has a ton of potential now we get to see what he can do as a starter. Everyone penciling him in as the #1 overall pick is putting the cart way before the horse. It's 5% because of his talent and what he's showing on the field and 95% because his last name is Manning. And if he is what he's hyped to be the Texas coaching staff needs to be answering some tough questions about why the kid wasn't on the field sooner. Ewers was a good college QB but he's definitely not a "keep a future #1 overall pick waiting" type of college QB. Only getting one season out of a top NFL talent because you chose to keep him buried behind a borderline NFL talent is just coaching negligence. Not starting him as a true freshman? Yeah, I get that. But on year two if the kids is what he's hyped to be you gotta wish Ewers well elsewhere and turn the page.
