Lets look at the teams looking for head coaches:

Cleveland Browns- likely going offense, Pat Shumur and Gruden mentioned as candidates. (I guess we still can't rule out Fox)

Oakland Raiders- since 1963 Al Davis has hired 1 Defensive Head Coach...John Madden.

49ers- looks like Jim Harbaugh or bust...

Denver Broncos- ??? possibility, but I think they'll go offense again

Carolina...well, you know.

All of that talk about Fox being the "hottest FA head coach" hasn't lived up...yet. Granted its early, put perhaps the media laid it on a bit thick with this one.

I agree, Fox doesn't have many logical landing places from what is coming out now.

Peter King on Sunday Night Football said the way most teams will go about getting a new HC is through rising/established assistant coaches.

Fox doesn't fit that. Money could be a factor as well?

he will find a job, if not a head coach a defensive coordinator, possibly with a Denver or New York Giants (If Fewell is hired somewhere).

as many people claiming Fox will get picked up as soon as he's let go.. I'm still waiting... I highly doubt he gets another HC gig..

i dont doubt he finds a head coaching job, but it may not be this year. i think he wil be a defensive coordinator if not hired as a head coach, the Browns and Broncos are the teams to watch when it comes to Fox being either head coach or defensive coordinator

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
