Foxy: "If we were trying to run a regular offense, he’d be screwed"

“We decided if Tim [The Golden Calf of Bristol] is going to be our guy, we can’t do that other crap,” told Jeff Darlington of NFL.com. “We had to tweak it.”

“Do whatever the hell it takes,” Fox said. “I mean, what the hell? You don’t get points for style in this league. Let me tell you something: My man is really good in this offense. You know what I mean?

“If we were trying to run a regular offense, he’d be screwed.”

“Hey, Tim thinks he deserves to have these plays in this offense. And you know what? After watching our games the last two weeks, it’s hard to argue with him,” Fox said.

It's profootballtalk. They just make things up and act like it's real quotes/stories.

Uh, those quotes came straight from Jeff Darlington (from NFL.com) who interviewed Fox from his office in Denver. I left out all of the PFT added commentary.

Eric Mangini made a good point on ESPN this morning (I'm as shocked as you are), Rex Ryan spent a good portion of his coaching career in college. He's seen most of the things that The Golden Calf of Bristol will be doing this Thursday night. Idk how much the short week will play into things, but I don't see The Golden Calf of Bristol having a good night (regardless).

At this point The Golden Calf of Bristol is little more than a gimmick. He can't pass. He has no field vision. He can't read defenses. They have played terrible teams. It's not a matter of if but when NFL defenses shut down the single wing.

I love how the article makes Fox look like some flexible offensive genius. Grain of salt with most of these writers/articles.

    • I'm honestly looking beyond DC at this point. He's too green and is making too many simple mistakes. I think he's gone after next year. I think the intention in LV was to use Mayer and Bowers similar to Gronk/Hernandez in NE. That's never really struck me as Carroll's MO though after watching him for years out here in Seattle.  He's talented enough and I think he just got lost behind the phenom that is Bowers because he couldn't develop in Carroll's system. I'm surprised Bowers is used as much as he is, though they really don't have anyone else. TE's don't really exist as focus receivers in Carroll's offense. I live in the PNW so I've been subjected to a lot of Seahawks football.  Coaches other utilize their TEs. We should too. Tremble is OK, but he's always been a project as a receiver. Again, all this is of we could get him at the right price. I wouldn't pay a lot because we need to spend on defense. 
    • David. Hey, money talks.....it has been acknowledged that Tepper isn't shy on spending. He's had the NFL equivalents of used car salesman after used car salesman line up to grift him of a big chunk. Canales is one of them.  Until that changes, it's gonna be tough to build anything to last.
    • Well it's who they tied themselves to for at least another year but i agree. They will be lucky to find a useful contributor but until I see the DC situation change I am presuming it's SSDD. Well it sounds like maybe in 2027.
