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)

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
