    Wonderfully stated.

    I still love that guy Foxy. I always have, even when it was time for him to go, and it was time for him to go.

    Is he better than Rivera? Maybe, who knows right now. Foxy's damn good. We're seeing him do over there some magical things that he has done here, and it's a remarkably familiar feeling, I miss it. I miss it dearly.

    But it was his time.

    Do you really believe this retarded shit? Or is the Collin alt just a joke now. I'm beginning to think the real Collin left a few years ago, and that he gave B&B's bored and worthless ass the green light to fuck around w his alt. Well it's not funny.

    You don't think it was because he won a few at the end of last year, and they just thought it might be time to see what they had in him, since they invested a first rounder in him, and that Orton was largely ineffective?

    I don't remember him grumbling until 2010, and those comments shocked me because before that I was under the impression that Hurney just did pretty much whatever Fox wanted in terms of personnel.

    yes, he didn't mention it until towards the end, but he referenced as far back as after the 12-4 season when he did as the beginning of the end

    Yep. It was either in his closing (firing) presser or on sirius. But I remember it.

    Everyone seemed happy with Fox up until Jake had his meltdown in the playoffs against the Cards. I suspect he never fully recovered from his Tommy John surgery but we managed to cover it up during the season with our running game playing so well.

    Give Fox a serviceable or better QB and he will win games.

    Well okay, I see why this sounded wrong. We were not 12-4 when we lost to Seattle. That was the year we lost to Zona.

    As far as players, I have no clue who he may have wanted that he didn't get but I'm doubting he wanted a better QB. He played Jake until he had to take him out despite Jake just killing the team.

    I think the Patriots have every reason to be worried...

    If Fox wins this weekend, does that put him in the COY conversation?

    This is such an absurd statement. How do you hide a botched surgery? There was nothing wrong with Jake's arm, he was always that gambler who could go sevens or snake eyes. People tend to forget that he also threw two interceptions in that first game against Jacksonville. He lost plenty of games single-handedly for the Panthers because he was always a risk-taker who threw the ball up for grabs.
