If Fox is Gone Next Year, How Would You Feel about an In-House Hire?

[jbland]

I really believe if Fox is gone this will be the Chins team. It just makes sense to me that it will happen.

[Sword]

don't expect the chin to come back for family reasons..he's going to want to be family first right now i would think.

oh, and i'd take the Bengals or vikings defensive coordinator...

[Brandon]

I want to keep Meeks as DC, he's obviously very well suited for it.

If we hire in-house I want Skipper to take the reigns. Davidson isn't a great OC and I'm not sure he would work out. Skipper has a good rapport already with most of the team and is already the assistant HC.

I do not want a retread head coach, and we aren't going to pay out for one either. They'll cost just as much as Fox will and money will probably be the only reason Fox isn't retained.

[Pantherman]

I'd support giving Meeks a shot as HC... he's definatley gotten results with our defense.

Honestly we don't have time to waste on a in house hiring like Meeks. I want a proven Guy like Cowher to come in here. No ****** Gruden neither. Gruden ain't no better then Fox at this point.:grouphug:

[Razeyfingers]

Promoting internally and going with Davidson would be unprecedented for this FO I think, but there's a first time for anything when the time is right. Chiny McChinister has got to be right behind Davidson in the runnings and Meeks would have to be a long shot in JR's book compared to those two.

I still think our current coaching setup is copacetic and really hope that all of these 1 yr contracts are just for team unity and setting an example in the NFL.

The way i see it the options are the following in no particular order.

1. Bill Cowher who hopefully will bring Mark Whipple as OC.

2. John Gruden who could possibly keep Davidson

3. Skipper who has been with us for a long time and is a Assistant HC right now.

I vote to move Skipper to HC and keep Davidson.

So you want a Chuckie or a Chin?

Another option?

Has any coach ever won a superbowl with 2 different teams? I don't even want to *** with those odds. This is a young mans game. I want a young guy in here with a brilliant mind that is willing to bring in an original new formula for playing the game. I don't want to line up to run the ball with everbody knowing we're going to run the ball an not trying to disguise anything. Our offensive sets suck c-ck.... Its no secret that I have hated Fox ball and his phylosophy for scoring...

[Dpantherman]

Gruden. I think he could coach up Clausen very well. not to mention I think he drools at the thought of Steve Smith, D.will and Stew on his team. (especially after we burned them on MNF). and he coach against the team that fired him twice a year.

[PantherFanOne]

If we promote in house i would slightly perfer Meeks but would not be upset if Davidson was offered the position.

[Dpantherman]

In house...id say Meeks. If its change you want. I don't know how meeks wants his offense to look, I know what Davidson wants, and its to run all day

Honestly we don't have time to waste on a in house hiring like Meeks. I want a proven Guy like Cowher to come in here. No ****** Gruden neither. Gruden ain't no better then Fox at this point.:grouphug:

I would prefer Gruden over Cowher. Cowher is the same style of coach as Fox. If we want someone to invigorate the offense, Cowher is certainly not the guy.

[Davidson Deac II]

In house...id say Meeks. If its change you want. I don't know how meeks wants his offense to look, I know what Davidson wants, and its to run all day

Actually, we don't know what Davidson wants. We know what Fox wants Davidson to do.

[Pimpdaddy]

Actually, we don't know what Davidson wants. We know what Fox wants Davidson to do.

Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding... we dont know sh!t about Davidson yet he was ok at New England.
