I appreciate your trying to explain things to such an idiot, but someone above actually stated that he was fired. There is a difference.

Well basically that is what the Broncos are saying. like us with Tucker. We never "fired" Tucker when we fired Trestman, Tucker was just told he was free to seek other employment.

For one thing, you're stupid. For another, Manning plays while injured unlike Jay Low Cutler.

Manning couldn't do shit the last month because his arm is toast because of age. Maybe the injury played a small part, but nothing like you want to think. Stupid is your middle name! And you comment about Jay not playing injured spells out the stupidity that you show

“I am eager to continue my coaching career and look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead,” Fox said.

That's what the Fox says

I'd rather have John Hufnagel. 73-34-1. Proven championship coach.

DblTADS.jpg


In his six seasons as Calgary’s head coach and general manager, John Hufnagel has led the Stampeders to a remarkable 73-34-1 regular-season record. That places him second on the franchise’s all-time list of coaching wins, trailing only Wally Buono, and Hufnagel’s winning percentage of .676 is tops in Red and White history.

The Stampeders have reached double digits in victories in each of Hufnagel’s six seasons at the helm, have qualified for the post-season six times and have reached the Grey Cup twice including a championship in 2008. Hufnagel and Buono are the only coaches in franchise history to lead the Stamps to the playoffs in each of their first six seasons and Hufnagel is one of four men to lead the team to multiple Grey Cup appearances.

Even though the team was hit with a string of key injuries on both sides of the ball in 2013, Hufnagel led the Stampeders to a league-best 14-4 regular season record. The team’s 14 wins were the most by a CFL team since 2009 and by a West Division team since 2007. The Stamps earned a bye in the first week of the playoffs and hosted the Western Final, losing to the eventual Grey Cup champion Saskatchewan Roughriders.

The Stamps led the CFL with 549 points scored and were second in fewest points allowed with 413. For the second straight season, Hufnagel was a finalist for the Annis Stukus Trophy as the CFL’s coach of the year. It’s an award he won in 2008 when he led the Stamps to their sixth championship in franchise history.

Hufnagel coached his 100th regular season game in the Labour Day rematch in Edmonton on Sept. 6, 2013, and Calgary finished in the top two in several statistical categories that season including points scored, points allowed, average time of possession, home and away records, net offence, rushing yards, sacks and fewest sacks allowed.

Calgary was the highest-scoring team in the West Division with 549 points, surpassing the 30-point mark on nine occasions during the regular season.

Hufnagel’s 73 wins since 2008 are 11 more than any other West team during that six-year stretch. The Stamps have been first or second in points scored in all six years and lead the CFL with 3,303 points scored during that stretch, which is 146 more than the next best team. The Stamps have scored more than 500 points in each of Hufnagel’s six seasons. Under his guidance, the Stampeders have never lost more than two games in a row.

Hufnagel began his coaching career in 1987 with the Saskatchewan Roughriders as a player/coach. In 1990, he joined the Stampeders as offensive coordinator under Buono. In this role, Hufnagel helped guide the team to three Grey Cup games, including a championship in 1992. His innovative offences were explosive under the direction of Doug Flutie, who received the CFL’s Most Outstanding Player award three consecutive years (1992-1994) with the Stamps. Hufnagel also developed Jeff Garcia and enabled him to take over from Flutie in 1996. These high-powered offences produced future Hall of Famers such as Terry Vaughn, Rocco Romano, Allen Pitts, and Flutie, along with players who received numerous league accolades such as Dave Sapunjis and Vince Danielsen. During Hufnagel’s seven seasons with the Stampeders, the team finished first in the West Division six times.

Following his success in the CFL, he went to the Arena Football League as head coach/general manager of the New Jersey Red Dogs. In two seasons, he posted a 17-11 record. Hufnagel joined the Cleveland Browns in 1999 and spent two seasons as the quarterbacks coach. In 2001, he was the quarterbacks coach for the Indianapolis Colts when Peyton Manning completed 62.7 per cent of his passes for 4,131 yards. Hufnagel spent the 2002 season as quarterbacks coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars. That year, Mark Brunell threw just seven interceptions in 416 pass attempts and his 85.7 quarterback rating was his highest in four years.

Hufnagel spent the 2003 season as quarterbacks coach for the Super Bowl-champion New England Patriots. Under his tutelage, Tom Brady completed 60.2 per cent of his passes for 3,620 yards, 23 touchdowns and 12 interceptions and was named the Super Bowl MVP.

The next season, Hufnagel joined the New York Giants, with whom he spent three seasons as offensive coordinator. In 2004, the Giants scored 60 more points than they had the previous season (303-243). Running back Tiki Barber set a franchise record with 1,518 rushing yards and quarterback Eli Manning starting laying a foundation that saw him emerge as the Super Bowl MVP for the 2007 season. In 2005, Barber upped his team record to 1,860 rushing yards and the Giants had the third-highest scoring offence in the NFL.

Hufnagel returned to the Stampeders on Dec. 3, 2007, when he was introduced as head coach/general manager.

Prior to coaching, Hufnagel starred at Penn State University. In his final two seasons as a starter, Hufnagel’s record was 21-3. As a junior, he led the Nittany Lions to a 30-6 Cotton Bowl win over Texas and in his final season took his team to the Sugar Bowl. He also finished sixth in Heisman Trophy voting in 1972.

In 1973, he was a 14th-round draft choice of the Denver Broncos. He spent three seasons with the Broncos before starting a 12-year CFL career with the Calgary Stampeders (1976-79), Saskatchewan Roughriders (1980-83, 1987) and Winnipeg Blue Bombers (1984-86).

Hufnagel earned a Bachelor of Science degree in marketing from Penn State. He has two daughters, Neely and Lindsey, and a son, Cole.

Yep. Let's say that the 49ers don't hire Gase. Fox could bring Gase and Del Rio to Chicago. I'm uncertain about Gase, truthfully, but Del Rio can coach D.

Jay taps out faster than anyone. Never plays hurt but his play does often hurt his team.

You don't know anything about football or being manly, so I simply discount your worthless opinions.

also how awesome would it be if del rio decided he wants to go with fox too Chicago..then the heir apparent would be in place right beside fox

I've actually refrained from the Del Rio convos. I don't want him as HC. Too much stank from the last guy the Bears hired from Jax.

Broncos fans are happy as fuck that he got released. Said he lacks passion.

:thinking:


Most of the complaining from Broncos fans centered around him being too conservative. But after they put a lot on Manning in the Rams loss, Fox forced the running game more for the sake of balance. Manning wasn't right often times after this. But it was hard to know if Peyton was too old or whether he needs to pass a lot more or he doesn't find a rhythm. If you're a Bears fan and like Fox, the good take away here is that, if Fox was willing to take the ball out of Manning's hands, what are the chances he doesn't do the same with Cutler if necessary? But the conservative thing was already out there amongst the fan base before Fox decided to run more.

Del RIo seems to be the #1 choice for the Raiders
