If we shit the bed yet again and get clobbered by the Motor City Kitties....
I would be absolutely 100% okay with forcing Fox to fire Dowell Loggains.
Immediately replace him with who PACE and FANGIO actually feel is the brightest young mind on the offensive staff (Ragone?!, whoever). Fuck it. We already look dysfunctional, ill prepared, predictable, etc. MAYBE we have a diamond in the rough on our staff, but Loggains is an absolute shit stain and can go fuck himself.
If we suck for another week or two, immediately fire Fox. Period. Replace him with Fangio and let Vic decide if he wants to keep calling plays or not.
Then you have essentially 11 or so games with a new HC and a new OC (And maybe even DC) left for Pace decide if that recipe, or parts of that recip, works moving forward.
I don't agree with everything Pace has done by any stretch of the imagination, but you have to let the dude pick his own coach. Maybe Fox is a joke at this point of his career and is getting exposed. If I have to hear that ass hat say "This game is only fun when you win" while still continuing to have the flattest, least prepared team in the fucking league including the Browns... I am gonna punch a puppy. And I fucking love dogs.
I still think the jury is out on Kevin White and he is one of those guys that probably won't explode until year 3. Anybody that saw him as 'polished' coming out doesn't pay attention. If we were a good team we wouldn't be freaking out that he is progressing a little slowly. This is pretty common for size/speed guys that had zero reason to learn the nuances of the game at the college level. Calm your tits. Floyd and Bullard flashed some in the preseason, and although Biff annoys me too, he is 100% right about pass rushers typically taking time to hone their craft at this level. Goldman shows a lot of promise. Amos has looked decent this season. Kwiatkowski shows some toughness and aggressiveness. I think Whitehair looks like a 10-12 year starter. Not addressing the tackle position with people that can, ya know... play tackle certainly pisses me off. However, some of the young DB's look promising (remember, Fuller is not a Pace guy) even if they haven't 'arrived yet. I actually think the lack of pass rush has put them in real tough spots. Howard also seems like he might be a player, etc.
He didn't yet replace Jay probably bc he wants to rid himself of Fox first. I say fuck it, let him do it. IF, and its a big if..., but IF the young guys step up over the last 10-11 games or so, you have to believe with a pretty high pick, as well as extra picks, we can improve moving forward. Fox looked good on paper coming in, but he strikes me as an arrogant coach with average intelligence that has too much ego to realize he's fucking lost it.
We get blown out by 21 points against Detroit at home I am okay with firing him that night and having a press conference on Monday.
This team is so boring I honestly skip through much of the game on game pass. It's just a shit show. I have been watching religiously since I was 9 years old. In 27 years as a football fan I honestly haven't tuned a team out this much.
