  1. Ok I have important things to do, such as sleeping.
  2. There's nothing quite like being down 40 points and then seeing your #1 WR suffer an injury
  3. Try turning off the tapatalk sig. I think it screws up sometimes
  4. He's been GM for 3 years and this team is awful. It's pretty clear he has not been good. He's largely done well with talent composition IMO. He inherited an aging defensive team and outside of his first draft where he still managed to draft a pro-bowl caliber WR, I think has done well drafting. His only real bad FA signing to this point is JA. And his one trade was great At this juncture his coaching decisions have completely undermined those things(literally half of today's scores can be linked directly to coaching not talent). So yes he's been bad, but I don't think it's unreasonable if you liked him at first you'd give him a shot to correct this current existing weakness. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Jason Campbell, Lamar Houston and Michael Bush say hello. Lamar Houston played his role well. Bush and Campbell are not significant in the entirety of his FA record. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Much like having Aaron Rodgers can cover a multitude of GM sins, fantastically failing your HC hire can hide many other decent GM moves.
  5. Honest question: Does McCarthy have one eye on 73-0 at this point? That briefly crossed my mind. But he would be hanged if Rodgers got hurt
  6. At the beginning of the year someone had the Bears last in the North something like 6-10. I was incredulous. Still having trouble grasping what the hell happened here
  7. This has got to be IT. The worst single game embarrassment in Bears history
  8. Lol this is hilarious
  9. He's been GM for 3 years and this team is awful. It's pretty clear he has not been good. Agreed but I'm trying to see why someone would want to keep him beyond the unwritten rule of them staying for two coaches. Good job on Marshall. Good pick w/Alshon. I still think Bennett was a good move. Long pick was solid. But damn it to hell you can't blow your HC pick like this. Not on a CFL guy when there were other clearly better choices
  10. So no one fired at halftime? Darn it that's why I was still watching
  11. Oh I'm always ready to be disappointed.
  12. Most GMs get a second head coach hire unless they [expletive] the bed in all other aspects of the job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He's not most GMs, he was an experiment. He in no way should be allowed another hire. But I'm sure he will anyway What makes him not most GMs. Coming up through scouting and director of college scouting isn't some obscure GM path. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk What? Nobody had a clue who he was. He was hired from deep obscurity. Fan name recognition isn't an important GM trait. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You are being ridiculous

  15. Exactly they were both outside the box high risk/high reward hires that failed miserably. I know what you are going for here, but I don't see the basis for the "high reward" part of the equation.
  16. Coach of the 1-8 Bucs? I bet we'd be better than 3-6 if he were still here. At least he wasn't a dumpster fire in year 2
  17. Lol awesome playcall tresty
  18. We'll always hire the worst option. We are cursed Which is why "change" doesn't cut it.
  19. Why. "Best" case scenario is it improves us and we get the 10th pick instead of the 3rd. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Not a bad point except I'd be afraid they would make no changes at all if they tolerate this for the rest of the year.
  20. I was going to say :-)
