UPDATE: John Fox in negotiation with Bears to become next head coach

[strobiwan]

Denver is pissed cause the went all in this year and lost.
now they have shit for cap room and most their talent is set to be free agents.
They can't blame Manning for sucking it up, because the want him back next year. so somebody had to take the fall.

So the GM drafted the stars that he played, but he signed the "washed up" vets he played.

Can you actually be this fucking stupid?

Carolina...it's where washed up veterans go to die?

Glazer dropping bits on PFT Live right now[Taken from Reddit]

Thanks to user PlaysForDays for this info.

Among them:

Hard praise for Pace:

[he] is the only guy who has moved up in the league without moving up in the league.

When asked if there's any reason to doubt that Fox will be next Bears HC:

No

and when pressed on his confidence

It's a perfect fit.

And one last bit that I know /r/CHIBears will love:

[Fox] is the anti- Shanahan

 

[Jack Lame]

[he] is the only guy who has moved up in the league without moving up in the league.

What da fuq does that even mean?

 

[JZsportsfan]

What does it mean to be the ''Anti-Shanahan'''? I mean I know he is a hard ass but he's also been a more successful coach in this league than Fox has

 

[onebud34]

Anti-Shanny=knowing that Cutler isn't a franchise QB?

 

[Rise]

[he] is the only guy who has moved up in the league without moving up in the league.

What da fuq does that even mean?

He said he was the rare case of a guy who moved up in the league without trying to move up in the league. (Paraphrasing)

He stayed with one team, didn't always look for his next job, rather he just did the job he was in to the max.

[he] is the only guy who has moved up in the league without moving up in the league.

Think its supposed to say: He is the only guy who has moved up in the league without [trying to] moving up in the league.

"Anti-Shanahan" sounds like an awful-IPA

@StatsNBCSports: Florio: Any reason to think John Fox won't be the next head coach of the @ChicagoBears? @JayGlazer: "No, sir."

.507 regular season, 0-2 in superbowls. but he managed to outcoach Lovie Smith in 2005 & Mike Martz in 2003!

if the warning of carolina fans and denver fans dont tell you something, then you will never learn.

You're 100% right. I enjoyed reading this input.

I heard from one Seahawks fan that what bamainatlanta saying is the truth

Welcome to 4 years of mediocrity. Maybe the Bears make the playoffs once or twice in that time but no way are they winning a Super Bowl. To be honest I am not even sure the Bears will be able to beat Green Bay during those years if Fox is hired.

Yeah, they do have someone to blame. A SB team with a less than super coach.

Pace is his own man. If he wants Fox, he'll take him. If Fox fails, I want Pace the fuck out of here. I can't stand another 4 years of losing. This is Fox's 3 rd team. If he was hired as HC, I expect a SB run in the next 2 years.

Well the Bears don't have a QB so I don't expect them to beat Green Bay until they acquire one.

In regards to his time in Carolina. I think it's more impressive to have had a franchise that quickly in a Super Bowl...given there was no Carolina franchise 10 years prior.

 

[Desperado34]

A vote for Fox is a vote for mediocrity

Lollololol

 

[Midway Fields]

My one qualm with the potential Fox hire is he has been criticized in the past for falling in love with the veteran QB and reluctant to roll with a young guy aka Delhomme.

And our veteran sucks.

Say what you will about Fox, but he's been able to generate good consistent play from young players.

People forget how big of a fucking mess that Broncos team was when he took over as HC
