Three things that I really hope we get in the next coach

  1. Be as good a leader as Fox was. You might not like his approach, you might not want another conservative guy in here, but his guys played hard for him to the bitter end. Neither of our other coaches can say that.
  2. Hire and keep good people. That's one of the biggest aspects of being a head coach, and one of the least-discussed. Want to know why Smith is doing great in Atlanta? His staff is great, that's why. Remember why Payton finally won? He hired Williams. We need someone who can go out and get the best coordinators out there, and make them happy.
  3. Go for the jugular, on defense AND on offense. There were times under Fox when it really seemed like our defense wanted to just put the hurt on the other guys. This is why everyone loves Cowher too--his defenses played like that. I want someone who's fearless like that, and fearless on offense too. We've gone low-risk for long enough, and while there have been rewards they haven't been high enough. It's time to let the pendulum swing in the other direction.

You cant argue with the fact that Fox's guys love him and will play to the end for him but I wonder about his ability to "rally the troops". With a few notable exceptions it seems like once a game starts going south Fox was never able to get things going in the other way.

Not trying to turn this into a Fox bash thread, Id just like the next guy to be a better leader than fox was/is.

I think that kind of rests on the coordinators, which is what I think Fox's biggest flaw was. Fox can rally the troops, and he can get his coaches pumped up, but if his coordinators don't have effective "plan B" plans in the first place, then there's not a lot that can be done.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
