Agree or Disagree, I'm one of the few who admire this coach. I'd like to hear some legitimate arguments those against him, because that type of fan always pointing their finger at someone for loss just really get under my skin.

Like Deangelo says "we're just not playing good as a unit", however there's so much talent potential as a team.

I look forward to Otah and our line playing better and seeing our offense possibly be a pretty great one. We already know what our defense is capable of.. And the emergence of some great special teams players and otherwise offensive starters (Mike Goodson), 0-3 could just be the beginning to a great season.

2004 was Fox's best coaching season. We was in contention for a playoff spot the last game.

Right but since that game was meaningful......how'd it turn out....

That season we lost a lot of games by 3 or so, so it could have been a great season but alas.......COULD have.

It is what it is 7-9

No one has mentioned this, but with the Rooney-Richardson connection, i wouldn't be surprised to see a coach from the Steelers coaching staff end up as our HC. like Bruce Arians

Or the Chin since he was part of the Steelers coaching staff....

J/K, really as long as it is a solid candidate I will support whoever the new coach is. Just ready to try something new, Fox and his crew are dead to me.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
