Cleveland Browns might look to Fox?

Is there anything about the Cleveland job that would be remotely appealing to Fox, besides money?

 

The opportunity to live in Ohio?

 

Fox wants to coach a gay QB?

 

He liked coaching Carr that much?

 

Cleveland's a terrible franchise with a huge albatross of QBs and aging players. They have so little real talent.

The only thing that Fox would get out of a move, in theory, would be the ability to couple up with Weis and be paid long term. I don't know if he'd get to bring anyone else, and unlike the Gruden/Edwards 'trades' there's nothing of real worth in the existing coaching staff. If he could take, say, Skipper, Magazu, and Davidson, with or without the D staff, I'm sure he could take that and Weis and make a winner. But when they let Chudzinski go for Daboll (who funny enough is of the same offense as ours, Pats, NO, ,Weis) they kinda fucked that part up.

Pretty sure that Rob Ryan/Bryan Cox are a good combo, but I don't know I'd trust them for the 4-3. Still, if Rob can stop making fucking stupid career moves, he'll start making dominant defenses again. That's all there is on the D side you could work with.


The idea that Holmgren wants to be involved the offense should be enough to scare any actual head coach away from the job - there's no reason any head coach should have any input from the front office on how to coach or what to call, and I think our time here with Fox has shown how irreparably bad that would make that relationship.

 

I can not see Fox in Cleveland. If he wants out I think he could work a deal where he ends up somewhere better than that. He could probably call up the Giants and get them to fire Coughlin in order to bring him on board.

 

Fox did take the Panthers job so i don't think he'd hestitate because a team lacks any real talent.

 

True but it was his first HC job. He has more clout now I would think.
