balta1701-A Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter Former Saints interim head coach Aaron Kromer has accepted the Offensive coordinator and offensive line coaching job with the Chicago Bears. This is immediately my favorite hire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sulster Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Oh boy...imagine Bears having an octane offense. Saints have had a great line that past few seasons and it seems all the teams go after their free agent oline. That's a sign of great coaching. Bears do the same, but Bears go after guys that were cut. Big difference. Times a changing. Now we just need the Honey Bears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we just need the Honey Bears The reason I like this hire so much is...the Saints know how to make their O-Linemen look good. They never leave them out on islands alone against guys who can get to the QB. They provide the help their linemen need to keep Brees clean. The Bears adamantly refused to provide that same kind of help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If oline keeps him clean this offense could take off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Since Kromer became the Saints OL coach they have ranked 4th, 5th, 2nd, 3rd in sacks allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockren Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 All I needed to see was "Saints" associated with the name and it got my approval. Agreed. I believe Kromer will hold the title of OC....but Coach will be calling the plays IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'TD' Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 When Lovie came in, he made the big statement that the first thing the Bears were going to do was beat the Packers. Trestman just came in and made a bigger statement with out saying a word. He stole arguably the best OL coach in the league within hours of being hired.

madlithuanian Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Man, some honey bear sideline action would be really nice... Oh boy...imagine Bears having an octane offense.

madlithuanian Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I like it. I'm sure it'll be a group effort, with Trestman having final say. I like the take command approach... This is certainly a huge change form the past few decades... Yes i have heard the same thing that trestman will call plays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Wow. This feels like the offseason when the Bears landed Cutler. I couldn't believe we could finally watch a legit offense. Of course, Lovie/Tice/JA ruined that, but maybe, just maybe, we get a second chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I read something where Kromer was the OL coach for 4 years in New Orleans and they were never worse than 5th best in sacks allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 This is an insanely awesome hire, wow. Kromer and Trestman were both on the Oakland staff from 2001-2003. Didn't even realize the connection at first. Our offense just become lethal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wont say lethal til we have something called an offensive line plus a 2nd dependable receiver would be nice No Kool-Aid, I just felt that Tice and the scheme was holding the Bears offense back more so than the actual players. We will get the O-Line help via FA and draft. I believe Jeffery is that 2nd WR. Just think, we are going to actually have players in positions that maximize the matchups. There will be an actual game plan on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I like about all of this, they name Trestman coach in the middle of the night and by noon, he has two asstiants up and running.
