Your John Fox memories

[Sam Mills Fan]

Fox is getting fired?

If he's gone before February 1st, then yes.

I was the first Huddler in history to call for John Fox's firing in 2007 and I'm *finally* going to get my wish next week.........

John Fox: Great guy, an overall good head coach whose time may have past him by.

If the old board had not crashed, I think you would find me as one of the first to say Foxy is not the guy ( long before 2007) . I got bashed for it a great deal.

Foxy is a very good guy, a fair coordinator, but not good enough as a head coach. I kept hoping that he would learn to adjust (doubted it, but since he was here had to hope).

LadyPanther has been leading the charge as I recall.

It's okay, John Fox doesn't usually show up on Sundays either.

that's a quality zinger.

Him yelling at Charlie Dayton about wanting to kill Joe Menzer because Menzer called him out on BSing everybody about injuries in his press conferences one day. Fox was screaming.

When was that?

A couple:

Fox hoisting the NFC Championship trophy was an awesome Memory.

Fox running onto the field after the San Diego game.

"Jake Delhomme gives us the best chance to win" wash, rinse, repeat

My two favorites would probably be when the draw worked in the Superbowl, and in 2004 when we decided "to hell with it" and ran the flea flicker once a game.

It was mostly entertaining and always surprising. Best of luck wherevers Foxy.

I think his coaching style is built to win in the NFL, he just needs the right players to do it. I'll remember all his press conferences because they were all the same. He'll find a winner in this league sooner rather than later, I just hope we do too.

I still find it funny that when I watch my cardiac cats DVD, one if the first lines is something like: when John Fox first spoke to his new football team, he simply told them that they weren't tough enough to compete in the NFL..."

When I first watche that after I bought the DVD many moons ago, it gave me goosebumps ( no homo)... Now I reflect on that statement and I wonder where John Fox went. Since 2006, that "toughness" was just non-existent. It was replaced by vanilla shames and an overall stubbornness and unwillingness to adapt to how the NFL changes every year. If 2002 John Fox came in to take over this team, he'd spout off that same exact line, and that's the problem. Fox put us on the map in 2003, but by 2010's end, we're almost right back to where we started. So thanks for the few great years and mostly average and frustrating years, but as SMF and Boo have been preaching for years, it's time for a consistent and energetic coach to take over...because the team ultimately adapts the personality of it's HC, an our adapted an inconsistent, mediocre "a punt isn't a bad play" "goal isn't to win every game but at least 3 out of ever 4" mentality and this change is at least a year or two too late.
