    good job brandon
  7. jersey cubs fan
    I have no idea what Gase is going to do. Do you guys? I am not completely sure but I will venture a guess that he will design the offense and call plays.
  8. jersey cubs fan
    Others have said it and I agree, I was not interested in Fox but I do like what I have seen of the staff.
  9. jersey cubs fan
    it feels shame?

    Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 4m4 minutes ago If I'm not mistaken, #Bears still need assistants for following positions: RB, TE, WR, DL, LB.

    Probably because he wasn't the top choice. I think they were trying to get Chud and couldn't. Also, Gase was still pursuing other gigs that he didn't get. I think both sides ended up here out of a lack of other options. Well right that's his point. Fox would know better than anyone how good Gase is, and he still persued multiple other options before falling back to Gase. There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a look at other candidates and not blindly taking the guy you worked with previously. The longtime OL coach who follows Fox everywhere is a different situation. A quality OC is going to have other options and he is going to want to explore those options. A quality head coach is going to want to allow that guy to explore other options and will do his due diligence with other potential candidates.

    A head coach, defensive coordinator and offensive coordinator all with prior experience in those specific roles would be a pleasant surprise.
  14. jersey cubs fan
    no way
  15. jersey cubs fan
    Big step down Entirely appropriate for a 80 year old.
  16. jersey cubs fan
    Actually he tweeted that Andrew Clark will be the OC.

    I've had this thought and pseudo-concern, but when you think about it, is there much of a successful history of "having the next head coach on staff"? Belichick wasn't on the Patriots staff before he took the job. Tomlin wasn't on Pittsburgh's staff. Jason Garrett is about the only coach in waiting situation that I am aware of and is he all that successful? Jim Caldwell did it, but didn't last. That's very true. Belichick also didn't really succeed at the Jets (he had been at the Patriots in 1996, prior to taking HC job after leaving NY). iirc, the Jets named Belichick their coach and he spurned them for the open NE job. He was with the Jets, promoted as an internal candidate when Parcells left, then bolted a day later.

Yeah, if anything there is a history of guys circling back with a team where they had underling success. Kubiak back at Denver, Belichick spent one year with New England. McCarthy spent one year with GB then 5-6 elsewhere before returning. That speaks more to the importance of having a coach who can work with a number of quality assistants, and be able to identify and recruit replacements for the guys that leave.

    concerns about his ability to interview for a head coach position, sure.
  21. jersey cubs fan
    I believe the source of that fact was Kane.
  22. jersey cubs fan
    that's two daily herald hockey guys in a year, no?
  23. jersey cubs fan
    It's interesting that they have hired some offensive assistants without having an OC. Wouldn't the OC have some say in that? Or is this how it works everywhere? Well the line coach has been a Fox line coach for a decade, under multiple OC. I'm not sure the OC has much of a say in position coaches, it seems to me the HC has authority over every coaching hire.
  24. jersey cubs fan
    I definitely think some will survive. But w/o an official OC hire there are dominoes yet to fall.
  25. jersey cubs fan
    Apparently that happened. There were 3-4 assistant coaches hired yesterday, more or less right after the Fangio news came out. Interesting that only a few decisions on current staff was made. Only a couple assistants were let go. So far. You don't officially let guys go until you have definitive replacement. But they all reportedly are free to look elsewhere.
