If injuries are why we suck, should Fox be back in 2018? After all, he wasn't given a fair shot if injuries are the reason we struggled these past two years... and in his first season he can play the "lack of talent on the roster card"...

And let's face it, poor Glennon has been a victim here also. Injured OL and WRs. He should probably be our starter until he can play behind a healthy OL and have healthy receivers. Not his fault. Not John Fox's fault either. Nobody's fault. I'm just hoping the boys are having fun out there this year. Winning is overrated.

No.
The injury card is not an excuse for not calling timeouts when half the team is standing around with their hands up and confused.
The injury card is not an excuse for bad game planning.
The injury card is not an excuse for no adjustments.
The injury card is not an excuse for blindly going with the wrong players.
The injury card is not an excuse for bad time/game management.
The injury card is not an excuse.
Fox should not be back next week. During pre-season I was willing to let him finish the year. No more.

Yeah, but in all fairness he is probably so worried about these boys that his brain is muddled a bit. Same with Glennon. Injuries are just wrecking the season. We should get the whole band back together again NEXT season too. It's nobody's fault last year or this year, other than bad luck with injuries :-)

(and yes, I am joking)
