BREAKING: Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen report Broncos coach John Fox taken to hospital w suspected heart attack.
Boy, it’s a good thing this is their bye week.
Prayers up.
He has the Broncs playing great football this season. Speedy recovery!!
Best wishes to the guy - hope he’s back on the sidelines for the Broncos soon.
well atleasthe doesn’t have the added pressure of coaching a pro football team.

Poor man. I hope he’s all right.
It takes two reporters to obtain and convey such basic information?
Breaking news Bender
John was hired to get rid of the Josh McDaniels debacle. It was meant to be a temporary position while the team 'regrouped'.
But, he was good enough that they kept him.
How's that for some dumbass musician talking about sports?
Hope he's okay.
“Boy, it’s a good thing this is their bye week.”
No problem, Coach Emeritus Manning will run things for now.
All yuks aside, best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Adam Schefter was a local newspaper reporter covering the Broncos for the Denver Post. When the Broncos were in their super bowl years in 98-99, they got a lot of national coverage, ESPN noticed Adam, and hired him. He has deep ties to Denver and the Broncos. And I think he is a good reporter.
Hope John's okay
He’s got to stop coaching and take a TV analyst/announcer job. That added at least 20 years to John Madden’s life.
John Fox hospitalized but did not have a heart attack. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/11/02/john-fox-hospitalized-but-did-not-have-a-heart-attack/
PRAYERS UP!
Prayers up. I remember when he was the D coordinator for the G-men. Jim Fassel was the head coach and just had a great season- he won 10 games with a horrible QB Ina tough division after making a gaurantee that they would win out the rest of the year- which they did. The G- men had no choice but to keep Fassel and let Fox walk. Mara said” why do I feel we just let Vince Lombardi walk.” Things worked out okay with 2 Super Bowl miracles but....I would rather have Giants football-smothering D and a tremendous ground game then what we have had.
Yeah, not a heart attack. Probably atrial fibrillation.
Who will be acting head? Jack Delrio?
Prayers for John Fox, may be recover quickly
How updated is this Breaking info? As of last night they were reporting that it wasn’t a heart attack. (I follow my niece’s twitter feed — she’s a reporter in Denver.)
