The Bears still have to play games (I guess it's Packers week too)

Welp, back to monitoring COVID-19 numbers.

hahahahahahaha

Bears are bad at everything

I can't believe this staff and front office remains the same with this garbage.

New ownership is needed. Virginia and the rest of the McCaskeys are utter failures too.

Mitch starting, so it’s nothing but instant check downs to the flat. He doesn’t even look downfield

[UMFan83]

For the first time in their last 12 quarters in primetime, the Bears have scored an offensive TD!

 

Last 2 quarters vs TB

All 4 quarters vs LAR

All 4 quarters vs MIN

Almost 2 quarters vs GB

[raw]

The Bears do NOT add to their TD less halves total under Nagy. Unfortunately, this goes up there with the garbage time TDs vs. the Colts and Titans.

What game are you watching?

[WrigleyField 22]

The offense has been about as good as could have expected minus the fumble-TD where Mitch got face masked twice.. The D has really done nothing all day. All those long drives were hard to watch. A typical night from the D and this is probably an interesting game.

 

Anyways, probably for the best. Fire Pace-Nagy.

I doubt they’ll sell, so I guess the question is, do the McCaskeys have a “Rocky” in the family?

At the time of that post, Mitch had dumped to the right flat 3 or 4 plays in a row

Honest question, how does a relatively hands off ownership affect a team being futile for most of the last 25 years?

 

The Bears don’t have a good QB, they don’t have the coaching staff that could develop a good QB, they don’t have a FO that can hire the guys that could develop and coach a good QB, they don’t have executives that can hire the right FO that can hire a coaching staff that develops a good QB.

 

But where does ownership fit in? Should they be more like Jerry Jones and be more involved, maybe clean house more frequently (like Ted Phillips) when it’s clear the team doesn’t have the right pieces? Maybe they should be building connections within the game and improving the image of the team? Maybe make changes like artificial turf at Solider Field so it’s not knows at the stadium where speed goes to die?

 

These sound like I’m challenging your viewpoint and I’m not. I just always hear how the Bears need new ownership and I have a hard time figuring out why that would make the difference. I’m sure there are several reasons that I’m just not thinking of.

There are some questions if they can keep the team intact once Virginia dies and meeting the NFL ownership rules in regards to minority ownership. SUPPOSEDLY they have a transition plan in place. We'll see, eventually.

I have no idea how involved they are on a day to day basis, but they do have a history of making personal relationships with coaches or front office people that probably buys those people extra time when they should be let go

[UMFan83]

Not quite the Sunday night beating that got Trestman fired, but this should about do it for Nagy, even though it won't happen til Black Monday.

 

Probably but after today the Bears have the Lions, Texans, Vikings, Jags and then Packers again. Let’s face it, they could lose all 5 of them and with they way they are playing they probably will. But if I squint hard enough I can see the Bears somehow going 3-2 in those games, finishing 8-8 and sneaking in an extra year with some stupid excuse about never finishing with a losing season with the Bears.

 

Almost certainly though that won’t happen

Yea I mean, new ownership is probably a coin flip odds as far as getting better/worse in the area of team building (getting someone who intervenes too much). The area where the McCaskeys hurt are probably in things like the stadium deal.

 

But it really depends on how much they admit their limitations. Emery/Trestman was a disaster where they went out completely on their own. When they listened to others, they've been merely above average to average (Angelo, Pace eras)

They’ve had enough time. Whether they are too hands off or not doesn’t matter. What matters is that they can’t lead a team that can field a consistent winner. At the very least they need to get rid of Ted Phillips. Start with him and a new President will clean house.

At this point its pretty clear Phillips has been Crane Kenney'd. He's not standing in the way of anything.

Well there’s a knock against the ownership then. What’s the point of that? Fire him and hire someone who can do the job. If that’s the case then Ryan Pace is pretty much the top dog with regards to football operations which is crazy. Well run orgs start at the VP level setting the tone and vision for the team. Not to mention we are much more likely to attract an established, highly regarded name to fill that type of role. That’s where the biggest void is with the Bears right now.

Remember when we talked about Mitch having a relatively low number of INTs because he wasn’t allowed to take chances. Well this is what happens when you let Mitch take chances. Throws into double and triple coverage that are intercepted

[Wilson A2000]

Put in Bray

[raw]

For a mobile QB, Mitch isn't really very good at read option. Makes wrong decisions, bad ball handling.

 

Also for a QB, Mitch isn't really very good at throwing a football.

But Nagy liked him taking chances
