It's like ChatGPT was trained exclusively on Joe Rogan and Andrew Tate, and then unleashed in here as a test run.

honestly, it was a shitfest the moment it was created due to the Bears onwership/managerment's awesome ability to horsefeathers up a wet dream

[Brian707]

Yeah I suspect this thread will be like this until the coaching search is coming to a close in about a month. Then when the Bears make the wrong choice it will get really interesting

Quote him properly to get respect.

"I spend it on woman". Monogamy, not a player.

When the Bears hire Weaver, this will be the most entertaining part of this thread.

We need one of those "best posts of the month" or whatever articles about the posts that get the most reactions. And this one needs to win.

Obligatory Abe Simpson post for this thread.

We haven't had a new performance artist in a while. Hopefully he has more than one great thread in him.

If the Bears do go with an assistant who's on a playoff team, the hire wont be finalized until after the team is eliminated/wins the Super Bowl, right?

Right.  And if its a SB team its the bye week as the window for in person interviews.

So if we're waiting on Ben Johnson, we may have to wait a loooooong time

Worth the wait.

[Bertz]

Feels like this idea's not really evolving

 

[Brian707]

If it is indeed Ben Johnson, I am sure it will leak long before the SB- It just won't be official.

Plenty of time for the Bears to horsefeathers it up ala Dave McGinnis

Dummies are like a great magician watch the right hand with the trick being done in the left anyone who glorifies the punting season as the best in Franchise history is like saying look we saved 5 percent of a forest fire that took 90% of it, just plain dumb for my historic new name for the team THE Chicago Dummies the new mascot wouldn't even have to be human you just line up 2 dummies on each side of the benches.

Probably not "long" before SB.  If Lions make it past divisional round, the earliest they can even get him in the building is Jan 27. They'll get 3 hours of zoom before that.  They also can't have any contact after Feb 2 if Lions make SB.

I'd say Jan 30- Feb 2 is the likely leak timeframe.

 My off-season wish list:

An offensive head coach who will want to significantly overhaul the roster and dilute Poles' influence 

Two veteran offensive linemen to stop the bleeding, two more highly drafted ones to set up long term.

A fast WR to play outside and stretch out defenses 

Release Everett and sign a 1b TE to push Kmet for playing time 

Draft an RB to take over 1a from Swift 

 

This is exactly what I want on the offensive side. Wish we could have seen what Tyler Scott could do down the stretch, but whatever, he's probably not good enough anyway.
