It's funny to watch these anti-pace fools scramble to change the narrative and how they would handle getting their dream job, which is probably any job that gets them out of serving fast food

Oh, it's a huge deal...
3 more yrs that useless assfuck Phillips gets to hang around Halas Hall, kiss Virginia's ass at the country club and stick his ugly nose into football operations years after we were promised he was going to be relegated to back office work.
Am I hallucinating or wasn't that supposed to be the case?

I heard Hub this morning. Other things he stated:
The Bears and Giants are the best jobs.
Having Trubisky and a great locker room makes the Bears highly desirable.
Bear fans that need validation that it is a good job just aren’t knowledgeable. Doesn’t understand why this fan base needs validation from a national source.
He doesn’t feel the Bears are that far away from contending.
He thinks Fangio deserves an interview and a legitimate shot at the Bears’ coaching job. He said older guys like Zimmer and Arians should help illustrate why Fangio could be successful if given an opportunity.

The thing is that Fox is clearly more than willing to be the head coach that falls on that sword. At this point in his life and career he's just racking up millions purely based on reputation and doesn't give a shit to be the rebuilding coach that gets shit on and axed after two/three years.

I'm hoping that Fangio will stay on as DC now that Foxy is leaving. I know, it's not likely and there are potentially better DC's out there but it would be good to have some continuity now that the D is starting to look respectable.

Dude, I CLEARLY REMEMBER them saying he wasn't going to play a role in anything having to do with football operations.
Are you honestly denying this?
Also, THROW THE GODDAMN BANK AT FANGIO AND GIVE HIM WHATEVER TITLE HE WANTS AND LOTS OF INPUT ON DRAFT DAY/THROUGH THE SCOUTING PROCESS TO HAVE HIM STAY.
Fangio is a defensive genius.

No one wants to paint themselves in a corner by defending Fox, but what the shoopster says is true. The biggest factor that doomed the 2017 season was the idiotic signing of Mike Glennon. Pace knew Trubisky was green, so he was right to sign an interim QB. But there were better options available at half the price. The Glennon decision alone should be enough to get him fired. Very few coaches in the NFL could take a rookie QB without a single NFL-caliber receiver and succeed.

So John Fox has his pick of the two best HC jobs in the NFL, thanks to "Uncle" Ernie Accorsi . . . You can't make this stuff up . . .

Yes, dude, I am ... Please clarify. When did you see those words come out of either "King" George or "Sweaty" Teddy's mouth? . . .
. . . No "reports," leaks, twits twats or whatever they call them ... When did THE BEARS say this? . . .

Pace is on a 5 year contract. He has 3 drafts under his belt, has reworked the scouting team around him, and will have his choice of coach for 2 years. I don’t think he’s escaping accountability. He’s assuming control over time and will be accountable if the QB and coach don’t work out.
This seems like an appropriate plan of action with a young GM.
What would be disastrous for the organization is firing the GM too and starting the carousel again. The Bears have to show resolve here.
All this speculation about what did or didn’t happen re: the Fox hire is pointless. It is what it is. We’re 3 years down the road now.

That and just because he agreed, doesn't mean he would have gotten his guy if he didn't. Would have been interesting if he said 'no way'.
