2011 Chicago Bears General Discussion

[MidwayMonster31]

The biggest problems with going to 3-4 are that it will take several drafts to transition to a 3-4, see Kansas City. Briggs is our best player and he doesn't shed blocks well, Idojine might be able to play one end, but Harris would get clobbered on the other side. Melton might be able to play rush linebacker, but getting the personnel will take a while.

And like i said, with so many teams already running plus the possibility of others switching to it, there will be huge demand for the players who fit making it take so much longer.

I really do not like Peppers in a 3-4. I just don't think it would work. That's why I wanted no part of him in free agency. Not that we'd ever sign him anyway.

i hope we get Gregg Williams as our HC next year...

He's probably one of the guys who are better coordinators than HCs. He was 17-31 with the Bills and was known for making horrible in-game decisions.

[BeerBaron]

I'd rather an offensive guy. Gruden would be my prime choice....I'd even take Brian Billick. Just someone who won't keep trying to play god with the defense and keep ******* it up. Also someone who won't keep consciously ignoring the offensive line for god damn UTs and SSs. It pisses me off so much to think about......

**** no. Williams is a terrible head coach. Fantastic defensive coordinator, but he has no business running a team. He blew monkey nuts in Buffalo.

I want Billick, Cowher or Gruden. Me personally, I want a coach with some fire and intensity, basically the anti-Lovie.

I want the anti-Lovie too but **** no to Cowher. For too long I watched him spitting up a storm on the sideline while Dick Lebeau made that defense into a Superbowl caliber one. Cowher doesn't have a ring without him.....Lebeau now has 2. Plus he'd almost certainly install a 3-4 and demand to have GM powers.

Gruden then Billick are my two favs. Experience, Super Bowl rings, more intensity than Lovie, offensive minded.....them at HC and some young hot shot at DC to rebuild it from scratch. Honestly, I'm not too attached to any player on it anymore.

[Gay Ork Wang]

Who doesnt blow monkey nuts in Buffalo

[regoob2]

It's Gruden or bust for me. I love everything about him.

[BeerBaron]

God we need to beat the Lions.

[princefielder28]

1 interception for Cutler...

Tom Jackson forecasted 32 for him this year

[bearsfan_51]

Defense is playing well, just getting bad field position.

[BeerBaron]

Whelp. It's time to kill Lovie.

[Mr. X]

We lost that game, anyone who defends that stupid rule need not argue.

I mean, I'll take the win since we probably won't get many others. Dumb as all hell rule though.....

Lousy lousy lousy coaching today. Defense played great all game then went to **** and made Shaun Hill look like Joe Montana on that last drive. Bad turnovers, stupid calls........

Sigh. Gonna be a long year.

[Mr. X]

What really bothers me is that I saw three things that made that a TD catch:

1) Johnson had both feet inbounds
2) His body made contact with the ground well before the ball/hand
3) The amount of time he held the ball was adequate enough given 1 and 2 that there should be no questioning the catch.

I don't understand the going for 7 on the goal line when a field goal would've put us up. Chalk up that game to a bad ruling on the field letting us get by. I don't expect us to win more than 5 more games at best.

[Gay Ork Wang]

the thing is it is interpreted has the ground jarred it loose. it doesnt matter how long u have position, u have to have it when it tocuhes the ground, it took a split second to letting it loose.

You really wanna believe that? Ya'll got the W, but you really wanna say that was a no catch?

by the rules its not. by what i saw, it was one.

[HeavyLeggedWaistBender]

Oline still looked bad. Johnny still goes the wrong way. Jay still throws into triple coverage. I still love em.

But cmon.

[bearsfan_51]

We won the ******* game.

Sry to troll, but I had to see what you guys were saying about that call. I mean....ugh. There's no way that I can believe that's how the rule is meant to be interpreted. That's gross.

[Gay Ork Wang]

no problem, its just a matter of standpoint i assume, this one was so much in the grey area, so either way i wouldve been fine, i mean mike Pereira said its the right call so i guess its the rule thats ****** up not the call

[Monomach]

1. Fire Lovie. What a moron!
2. Fire the O-line. They suck.
3. In the real world, we lost that game.
