Week 15: Packers @ Bears from Antarctica

Josh McDaniels? No thanks

I'm still rooting for McDaniels with Cutler staying.

Bring in the Polian as an advisor especially with scouting current NFL players.

 

Give Harbaugh whatever he would want.

 

I can't imagine Fox coming back.

 

I would put my life savings on Harbaugh staying at Michigan in the short term (at least the next 2-3 seasons). Seriously even if you offered him $15m a year, I don't think he bolts. Those jobs will still be there in 3-4 years and I don't believe he thinks he's accomplished anything yet coaching his alma mater (no playoffs, no OSU wins) but he's getting close.

 

If the Bears parted with Fox this offseason, I think we are looking at Josh McDaniels or Vic Fangio as the best possible options.

I like the idea of McDaniels coming on board and then as his first order of business calling a meeting with Cutler to cut him. I like Cutler a lot more than most people, I just think it would be kind of funny after their history.

[David]

those tucker defenses were maddening.

[minnesotacubsfan]

He's right. Case in point: Shea

those tucker defenses were maddening.

 

they weren't maddening, they just....didn't do anything.

I'm surprised they were so good last year, but the Bears really suck at deciding when the return kicks this year (vs taking touchbacks)

It's almost as if they don't trust their weak ass offense to get the job done on its own.

what would brett know about the Bears front office?

[David]

jim bob cooter could be the best head coach ever and i'm not sure i could get past having a HC named that

 

i was also incredibly shocked to find out he is younger than me

word on the street is that Arians might leave Arizona.

I like my theoretical next bears head coaches like my theoretical next presidential candidate, not old. arians is well into his 60s, even older than Fox, who is probably not going to be on anybody's radar anytime soon.

well, early 60's, but he's sick, too. I would have hired him at 60, nonetheless.

What about Fangio?

Its equal parts amusing and terrifying to me. It is like a name that only some "coastal elitist" writer who has never been to the deep south would come up with for their over-the-top redneck character. But nope, its a real person.

isn't it pretty much the same name as the mass reproducing reality tv guy with the pedo-son?

I knew it was a possibility but I really didn't think Fox would be gone after this year

True, Duggar is pretty bad, but its still no Cooter.
