I just get the gut feeling that Tim Ruskell will be our new GM.
-
I was listening on the Score this morning, and they also said part of the problem is the Bears are trying to hire a GM, but in reality they are looking for a pro personal guy. Basically Ted Phillips has alot of the GM powers, or roles that your typical candidate would look for. This entire thing is assinine. The next GM should report directly to McCaskey, not Phillips. Just like Theo reports to Tom Ricketts, not Crane Kenney. Ted Phillips is a cancer on this organization and until he is removed or stripped of power nothing with change.
-
He wasn't capable ten years ago, at least that time he hired a search firm. What's changed in ten years? He has a bigger roladex?
-
Dan Bernstein hits the nail on the head again http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2012/01/11/bernstein-what-are-the-bears-doing/ It's quite clear that Ted Phillips is not capable to make this hire. It should unnerve Bears fans that the future of this franchise is in the hands of a glorified accountant.

Oh and look at that Boozer and Noah on the bench in crunch time.
-
Man people need to get off Rubio's jock. He's a horrible defender.
-
Anyone else having trouble getting to RealGM?
-
Well even two years ago, I thought the Bears OC job would be really attractive, regardless of Lovie's status, because you had a unique talent in Cutler. Even one great year from Cutler and the offense could be a great resume builder/career re-laucher. Then we saw candidate after candidate turn down interviews. I think something fishy has to be going on inside Halas Hall, that is making these guys stay away. It just doesn't make sense otherwise.
-
Doubt it. He passed on the chance to even interview for the OC job two years ago, to take the Raiders OC job.
-
Hoyer directed that at @theKapMan -
Is WSR a joke account, or is all of this real?
-
LSU's defense is so overrated
-
Castro accused of sexual assault, no charges filed
Theo replied to A New Era's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
He said, she said. Doubt he ever gets charged. -
Jeff Fisher is a former Bear, and has the moustache(by cracky) so many meatballs love him for that, is my guess.
-
How is Jeff Fisher any better than Lovie Smith. Their career winning % is pretty similiar as well as postseason success, (aka a superbowl appearances/loss)
-
Doubt that happens. Tice has said he sees him as a RT. Andrew Whitworth fits a similiar profile of Carimi. He was projected as more of a RT in the NFL, but now he is one of the best left tackles in a game. It's assinine that they won't even give him a shot out there. Carimi won that outland trophy playing left tackle in college. You don't know if he has the quickness at the position until you see for yourself.

Interesting article. I agree with the OL take. Webb is clearly the weak link as everyone else is serviceable. But there aren't a lot of options in free agency. On this list, http://nfltraderumors.co/2012-nfl-free-agents/, the only top 50 FA in this class that is an OT is 33 year old Kareem McKenzie. The rest of the FA class at OT is reclamation projects or injury prone players (Jared Gaither). And this isn't a great draft for LTs if you pick outside of the top 10. Even if you pick an OT at 19, it's going to be a 50/50 proposition if he's even more effective than Webb next year. As for the TE position, I know the GM is going to take the approach that you have to have a pass catching TE. But who says Spaeth and Davis can't be that? Spaeth caught 47 balls as a college SR. Kellen Davis is 6-7 and ran a 4.65 40 at the combine 4 years ago, and had a 16.0 ypc average as a SR at Michigan St. Kellen is a FA, but I don't see the need to overpay for Finley or Fred Davis just to have a dynamic TE when Davis/Spaeth aren't completely incapable of being solid receivers. Gabe Carimi needs to be at least given a shot at the LT job.

Who listens on the radio? I sure don't. Which is why I didn't mind Funk when he was on that side of it.
-
They should just switch Swirsky and Funk. It makes too much sense
-
Anyone else concerned that both Booze and Noah both on the bench the whole 4th qtr ?
-
Great win. I'm sure we will be hearing from SouthSideTrolling about how ineffecient Derrick was tonight.
-
Care to re-phrase? Or a candidate like Jerry Sandusky maybe?
-
I could get behind Billick.
-
Why can't you critisize Martz over the TE position? His offense ignores it in the passing game. That's a proven fact. I dont' care about Greg Olsen, I didn't think he was an elite TE, but shoot, if we would have had Jimmy Graham on our roster, Martz would have ignored him.
