If he stays and gets worse, get out the torches and pitchforks.

On the flipside...

If he leaves and actually plays to potential elsewhere, there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth, and the 'Fire Fox' train will have many people shoveling coal into it's boiler.

If he leaves and plays the same way as before, people will argue about him (same as they're doing now, but with the added debate over whether or not we were adequately compensated).

If he leaves and gets worse, the laughter will reach to the heavens.

people are wailing and gnashing now. Stories about how tyrannical Fox is for sitting in on a meeting or two, how coaches that we wouldn't allow to interview elsewhere last year left this year after we offered a minimal contract to them, how Peppers just doesn't like Fox, so on and so on, things that have no basis in reality. It won't take a successful Peppers to make people irrational after a 12-4 season as is happening now.

      Other NFL Games Week 7

      If you look at almost all Daniels stats, they are as good or better than last year minus perhaps Completion Percentage. I don't think Daniels himself is having very much less individual success than the Redskins are reverting to the mean.  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts#wsh Barnwell wrote about them in the preseason as a team that had an inordinate amount of luck or success in one score games that wasn't very likely to be repeated.

      We thinking of the same Mike White? He probably won’t even make it off the practice squad.

      I would heavily push back on the notion of Tomlin and Cowher inheriting "collapsed teams." From 1980 to 1991(prior to Cowher and after their Super Bowl victories) the Steelers experienced just 4 sub .500 seasons. In fact the winning percentage for those years was 0.505. At most that was relatively mediocre, something fairly akin to the pre-Tepper Panthers. From Cowher through Tomlin(1992 to Present) it has been the NFL's best franchise. 22 playoff appearances, 4 Super Bowl Appearances, 2 Titles, 15 times winning the division. In fact they have only experienced 3 sub .500 records in that 34 season span.  That isn't ever a scenario where rebuilding happens. It's constant and consistent retooling so that your franchise floor is always high. It's smart business decisions, exceptional drafting and quality personnel moves that create a situation where that floor STAYS high.  It was precisely BECAUSE we opted to go through a complete teardown and "rebuild" without any of that competence being in the organization at all that led us to where we are currently. A situation that will more than likely continue for well over a decade longer.  Long term successful franchises do not "rebuild." They are in a constant state of competent flux that sustains them through some leaner periods without ripping the foundation completely out that led to that success in the first place.
