What about Denver? delusional

I haven't lived in an area that reports on chicago-based stuff in nearly 3 decades, but the internet exists so it's readily available. I apologize jersey, I had no idea they were approaching it this way and didn't realize it would bother you so much that I didn't do the proper independent research. I mean, part of the reason I post here is to get the links you all post from reports back in Chicago to help educate me on these things - but maybe that's a horrible reason

is that the entire hiring committee? I ddin't realize they had more then just Geo and Ted, outside of the consultant group how are you this angry about how they are doing this without knowing how they are doing this? It's been widely reported and discussed that the committee includes those specific people. well, first of all I'm not angry, just bored with the search. second of all, where I live very little about the upper Midwest/Chicago in general gets reported, much less the Bears specifically. If it was posted here then I either missed it or failed to pile linked tweets to find it. Like, I had to google "Tanesha Bears" to find out they had this larger committee, and I only saw her name in wrigleys post

at this point my process would go do you like justin fields? yes - cool. no - eliminated will you hire Daboll? yes - cool. no eliminated should get there pretty quickly Seems like a bad process tbh probably, but at this point who cares
-
Based on current names I agree. Ireland was a big one I didn't want but haven't heard much there. Part of that is its too hard to judge GMs. All first timers, but all seem reasonable so let's roll the damn dice. at this point my process would go do you like justin fields? yes - cool. no - eliminated will you hire Daboll? yes - cool. no eliminated should get there pretty quickly
-
yes, all of this
-
yes, he should stay a DC
-
I'm not a fan of any of those names but of them I like Caldwell the most. Definitely not exciting but has an offensive background, is a players coach, and has led good offenses, though he seems to be a low ceiling guy based on his tenures with the Colts and Lions. yuk. Id love to be proven wrong, but I'm just not sold
-
Jim Caldwell? seriously?
-
this is horsefeathering terrible
-
they are better then what the NFL has
-
I think the latter. It's one reason that I like the wide net approach. You can almost crowdsource HC candidates by what the GM candidates say and vice versa for the GM. That's not a literal statement, but the Bears could be making a simple Venn diagram of who everyone likes and who everyone is concerned about. The other thing is you get to hear 10 GM candidates tell you what is wrong with your team and how to fix it. There must be some level of common answers that are irrefutable even to non-football guys like George. good points, otoh I wish (after decades of being entirely immersed in it) Geo would develop some football sense of his own. alas....crowdsourcing and Venn diagrams it is!

There is if Daboll gets hired while Geo is pondering what salad to have at his next GM interview. He's had time, in fact this year he's had more time then in past What if.....I know, long shot.....but what if there is more than 1 good candidate? thats kind of the point, raw. McCaskeys had time to start the search, interview people, and even ponder the meaning of life. There are probably more then one good candidate for GM and HC, but if you are serious about developing Fields there is really only the best choice. Judging by the glacier pace of the process, McCaskey either doesn't feel that developing Fields is a priority or he's too dense to understand how to do that.

I hate this. How they don't have a GM in place by now is criminal Eh? It's not the worst thing in the world, yet. If they don't have one until the super bowl, that's a problem. But there's nothing wrong with waiting until this week. There is if Daboll gets hired while Geo is pondering what salad to have at his next GM interview.

My guess is they've said to potential GMs "if you want Frazier, go somewhere else" Maybe Frazier us pulling his name, doesn't want to be a HC
-
Do you remember when the Bears traded Urlacher just before his peak? About that much of a chance
-
Mr McCaskey, get on the phone already and make the horsefeathering hire
-
Give him the Gruden deal, 10/$100 I don't care This game is a perfect audition for Daboll vs Frazier #hireDaboll
-
Minus the Bears knocking them out of the playoffs, yesterday won't get any better. Get him out of here, ASAP. He's the MVP two years in a row. I'll take my chances with Love and their financial situation. I could see Rodgers restructuring his contract, but $50 mil is a lot to find
-
Eh, whatever. I try not to get to wrapped up in professional athletes personal lives, or really their lives off the field. I like him during games/season. He probably is a douche. But I’ll never interact personally with him. And there’s a lot of worse athletes/people in professional sports/entertainment industry. its not his personal life, he’s actively making life worse for normal people. He’s an awful human being supported by trash pandasI feel like that's an insult to raccoons everywhere
-
Interesting Also, he can't win a big game
-
also your qb is a delusional qanon supporting douchebag that never backs up his [expletive] words Eh, whatever. I try not to get to wrapped up in professional athletes personal lives, or really their lives off the field. I like him during games/season. He probably is a douche. But I’ll never interact personally with him. And there’s a lot of worse athletes/people in professional sports/entertainment industry. He's "probably" a douchebag? He eats horsepaste. He's 100% a douchebag
