But with this present roster it's like sending a guy to a gunfight with a pocket knife. Nothing good is going to happen this year. Gase wouldn't be taking this team anywhere either. He's got his own crap 1-win team now. He'll be gone soon from Miami.
It seems like fans want us to go to the "Cleveland Browns Model" and keep cycling through GMs and HCs. It doesn't work. It never has worked. At some point you have to give people a chance (time) to turn around a crap franchise. It is painful to go through as a fan. Fans want instant gratification. We are not going to have that here in Chicago.
I'm not a fan of firing your Coach every 2nd year. I'm not a fan of firing Pace.
It's just that with Fox, we are mediocre for sure and this won't Change. Fox won't be here for ever and it's time to say goodbye after the season. Fox doesn't want to win.
I want to find a HC that is here to stay longer. I want a HC that works well with our GM. Hiring Trestman was beyond stupid and trying to be smarter than everybody else. Hiring Fox was hope but yeah... it's not working out and we are not getting better. We just added a QB controversy after Cutlers best season as a bear. Fox has no plan and it can be seen. Pace has to do his homework, hire a HC that will work well with him and that doesn't want control over the roster as much as a Fox/Lovie has and then build something with a Young GM, younger Coach and your new QB.
But how can you conclude that Fox doesn't want to win? That makes no sense to me to conclude that any NFL coach doesn't want to win. I also have a difficult time believing he doesn't have a plan. He and Pace probably have a multi-year plan (both an immediate and a higher level plan). That doesn't mean it is a good plan. But there is a plan.
We all have differing opinions - and we will in a rough rebuilding year like this, when the team is also crippled with key players being injured. It's a really hard year to endure. Especially coming on the heals of other bad years.
And for what it's worth, I respect everyone's opinion here, and am not trying to say I'm right or that anyone else is wrong. I just don't want to give up on Fox this year. Part of that is just my personality. I am slow to give up on people... some would just say I am "slow" in general :-)
