I think he may have chosen Chicago given it's close proximity to both the Cleveland Clinic and Mayo Clinic.

Lovie took every Bears team as far as it could go. It never underachieved. Fox has underachieved in 6 of his last 8 seasons.

Pace was hired to find the next Sean Payton. Not the next Marty Schottenheimer.

Not true.

The team that lost to Fox's Panther's should have won the home playoff game


The Broncos did not underachieve last year. They finished right where they should have....2nd in the NFL

That was the Kyle Orton led Bears. They shouldn't have even made it to that point. Rex Grossman had just made it back from injury too.

Edit: Even if you believe that they underachieved that season it's still better than underachieving 6 out of 8 seasons.

The defense was great. They proved they belonged there by getting a bye and home field advantage.

Lovie underachieved a few times.

Lovie's teams offensive yards rank:

32
29
15
27
26
23
30
24
28

That kind of ineptitude is almost impossible.

That's why he was fired. He couldn't find a guy to coach up the offense. Personally I think Ron Turner was the best. If he was given some weapons to work with the Bears could have gone further.

I just dont want to hear "well he was the best available".

FUCK THAT. might as well keep tressy, tank the next 3 years and build with draft picks. THEN bill fucking bellichick would want to come here. or someone similar.

fuck the bears. GOD DAMMIT years and years more of WTF. fucking bullshit. thank god for the bulls, even though theyre questionable at times.

The last 3 were layups and the one before that was an 8-8 season. The last 3 teams were supposed to win a SB and they only made it there once. They got slaughtered even though they were the favorites to win. That's underachieving in my world. If you gave a coach like Harbaugh or Belichick the same talent they would be working on their 3rd SB in a row.

The Bears had a good coach, fired him and hired a bad one. Now they have a good one again.


I dont know that there are any GREAT ones available.

His last few teams were stacked on both sides of the ball though. Are you saying Peyton is responsible for the failures? That possibility had slipped my mind.

Your have the same response to everything: he won when he was supposed to win and when he didn't win he should have won.

When was the last time your beloved Belicek won a Super Bowl? How many Super Bowls did Jim Harbaugh win?
