Sam Mills Fan World Exclusive: John Fox to the Chargers a near certainty

According to my source close to Fox, the San Diego Chargers is the team he wants to coach next year more than any other. He's from the area originally, thinks highly of owner Alex Spanos and Philip Rivers, and is already looking into real estate in the San Diego area. Barring a deep playoff run by the Chargers, Norv Turner and GM A.J. Smith are going to be axed at the end of the season opening the door for Fox.

Due to potential tampering issues, Spanos and Fox haven't had any conversations directly, but all signs behind the scenes are pointing towards Fox heading back out to Cali.

You heard it here first. Screenshot this beyotch, feel free to laugh and point at me if it doesn't happen. But my source is rock-solid.

He grew up in California. I'm 99% sure of that.

He moved there when he was 15. Went to college there. He has ties to there. You are definitely right on that.

He was born in Virginia Beach though as the other posted stated but that is irrelevant of course to your point.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
