What's the difference between 2 and 3? Is not being the Ravens mainly been being 2? Or because of their Flacco post-season performances is that different, but if it was, it's just like what the Giants have done too.

I would call you the idiot for not realizing the hub has an agenda. Is so far up Shanahan's us and has been petitioning for the Bears to hire SHANY that of course he has been shit talking Fox the whole time.
There are plenty of connections between facts and pace with Sean Payton as the middleman to disregard any ideas that Fox is being forced on pace.

Whether you choose to believe him or not, a caller called in last night with this exact point. Bernstein's response was basically this, just because Phillips/McCaskey may like and even root for Fox to be the hire, that doesn't necessarily mean that Pace has to take their opinion into account when he makes the hire. If they hire Fox, it will be Pace's decisions and no one else's.

Exactly. And given how good of friends Fox and Payton, it is not a stretch to imagine pace consulted Payton on Fox.

I have no issue with Accorsi or other people in the building pushing for a candidate. Pace said he would lean on people with this hire and Fox is a damn good candidate. All that matters is if he hires Fox that it was his decision. If the organization helped him get there, so be it. Accorsi helped the Bears get Pace. Part of being a great leader is knowing limitations and relying on people to get things done. I think Pace is leaning heavily on Accorsi for this hire to make sure he does this right.
Would you rather Pace tune everyone out and do this search his way? (this is not in reference to your post, just a general question) He even admitted this was uncharted waters for him. On paper Fox and the Bears seem like a good fit. Just want to make sure this is Pace's call at the end and he's comfortable with it.

He did consult him. Read somewhere that he called Peyton and Peyton gave him two thumbs up when Pace asked about Fox.

let's face it, this is a below average franchise and has been for decades, a coach who is average or above average looks like a savior right now

Well the Giants are hot and cold right? They don't make it every year, it's just when they get in they make it count. I don't think the Ravens have had an historically great defense, running game, or franchise qb during the Flacco/Harbaugh era yet they have made the playoffs 6 out of 7 times including having success while there.
You can say they morph into that during the playoffs but to me they transcend, in a way I don't see anyone else doing.

EHC with an update on Twitter (sorry to steal your thunder buddy if you were planning on posting the same info on here):
Aaron Leming @AaronLemingNFL It's not like I'm "breaking" much here but I will say that I have been told John Fox will indeed be the next HC of the #Bears
and
Aaron Leming @AaronLemingNFL @michaelutm77 I have with 2 separate people. "Agreed in principle".

This is far from confirmed, just speculation.
