DABEARSDABOMB

I'd be ok with this. He's young, up and coming, and has a good reputation with Jay. I also think he knows Shanny's system pretty well.

I'll always watch. Plus I figured we'd get a win. Not like we are rooting for a high draft pick or anything. So ya, I watched. Plus I like to see if our young guys can contribute and I still love watching Jay, even though he has nothing to work with.

I can't make a case for anything other than an F. He's the head coach and there has been a whole crapload of coaching issues this year. We expected playoffs and didn't get it. Whether the expectations were too high or not, we didn't live up to him and its the third straight year we haven't. F!!!

I have to rip on the coaches. Offensively we did nothing, were blah, and really could have just as easily lost this game. Defense played good, but against no one.

Haugh should realize who the Bears were playing. A horrendous football team with one of the worse defenses in the league, including run defenses and up until the very end of the game this team still couldn't run the ball. WE have the most inept rushing game in the NFL and it is one of the worse rushing games of the last decade. The team is complete trash, imo, especially the offensive side of the ball. The bright side is the team has the WR's that can be #2 through #4 and solid enough TE play (although I'd deal Olsen for a 1st or 2nd rounder if we could and find something else cause I think we could use the picks) but the line is beyond pathetic and we desperately need a #1 WR. Oh and playcalling.

Dude, the defense blows. Most of the guys won't be around in a couple years anyway. The defenses window died three years ago and we still hear about how great it is from tiem to time. Its sickening and our D sucks. Yea they were decent against the Rams and Browns, but those are two of the most inept offenses in NFL history.

At least he talks about how its unacceptable and it sounds liek changes are coming. I just hope Lovie is one of those changes. I'm excited at the thought of Weis too.

They have a 2nd rate QB coach and no one is running the show. This reaks of its time to go. And Turner is clearly allowing it and encouraging it. If you get a franchise QB, you need to do everything you can for that franchise QB. Part of that is providing him with top flight offensive talent, offensive minds, and offensive coaches.

Urlacher can get the freak out. I like that he's fired up, but don't ignore the defense their Urly. Over 500 yards given up, what an embarassment.

Lovie comes in at halftime, says the season is on the line, and the Bears get what, negative yards on offense in the 2nd half. I believe it was -3 yards of offense in the 2nd half. freakin pathetic. Get lost Lovie.

Its why I go ballistic on all the num-nuts blaming everything on Jay. Sure Jay could have played better, but at the end of the day he's had very little chance of suceeding given what he has around him. Its freakin pathetic and the staff better be gone.

I really believe it is just a matter of time until Cutler explodes on the coaches.

Absolutely. Give him some sort of coaching and help. This was the first game all season where he was inaccurate and even than he was getting knocked on his ass again all game. I'm so freakin sick of all the whining crybabies. The way Chicago Bears fans have treated their last QB's, they should all be ashamed. And I mean it. No one deserves the heat Grossman/Cutler have gotten. Its really freakin pathetic and embarassing.

Have you seen Olsen run routes though. Very uncrisp and very poor. He has great tools but isn't a great football player. Him and Hester are two guys I'd trade in a heartbeat because I think we could get decent value draft pick wise for him (and have a massive need there) and could find veteran replacements for relatively cheap, imo. Plus I happen to like Kellen Davis and still think Clark has a bit left in his tank as well. Neither will be as good as Olsen but I think Olsen is heavily over-rated and isn't a good enough receiver as a Te to make up for his inadequacies when it comes to blocking.

The big problem was the Bears gave him #1 Wr money. I still think and thought at the time that the best think we could do was trade him for the draft picks. I'd still trade him for a 2nd rounder today if we had a chance, especially with the lack of picks that we have.

Great great post.

I can't say that. 3 of the 5 weren't his fault and the 5th one, well he should have dumped it earlier but by the time he had scrambled that was it, he had to throw it. he throws it away, clock is gone anyway, imo. I feel so so bad for Jay. He's got absolutely nothing to help him out. This is one of the most inept teams I've ever seen offensively. I've never seen a team run as poorly as this team does. And than our WR's are just so bad at running routes. They are at least making catches for the most part, but they stop on so many routes and just fail to get open.

Forte did a nice job on the screens and it made me think he still has ability but it just puts a bigger magnifying glass on how much this oline is hindering the entire offense. It is absolutely ridiculous how the lack of experience or WR's have combined with a completely inept Oline is allowing our QB to get absolutely KILLED.

Knox isn't a complete receiver yet, hopefully he will be one day. In fact, most of our WR's are very raw. They don't know how to read coverage and effectively get off bumps, use picks properly, etc. It is one of the many reasons it is so frustrating to watch this team.

I don't know, in a pretty short time the Bears have turned Hester into a pretty solid receiver. I think Drakes and company deserve credit for that.

According to the Tribune, he won't be suspended.

I'm picking a Bears win.

You don't get much when you trade a player. Tommie Harris is about the only candidate. The Bears are gonig to have to spend on FA.

John Clayton was on ESPN Radio and said the Bears and Niners would be obvious choices and they have looked into Larry Johnson. However, they wouldn't be doing anything since they both have short weeks and couldn't get him into the fold in time. So in short, if LJ is available after Thursday's game we might sign him.

They say Omilaye is a tackle. So why the hell don't we move Williams and try Omilaye at tackle since Pace is clearly done?
