I mean Im sure Eberflus has a “plan” I’m just surprised that Poles thought hiring Getsy was the best plan.

Maybe Getsy is gonna be good, nobody knows right now. But based on the Bears track record, we have reason to be skeptical lol
Yeah, the names we've been hearing for OC aren't exactly inspiring. Pep, Getsy and LULZ or whatever his name is in JAX. If this is the staff and "plan" that really impressed Poles, im giving him a strike until proven otherwise. But maybe this was the best out of the 3 candidates forced upon him.

I'll wait, and give them the first season.

What I want to see isn't a 17-0 team, while that would be great, I'm not setting the bar there,

IMO, they have two jobs next season.
1. Develop Fields into a solid QB.
2. Get the Defense back to respectable. I don't mean dominate, just want to see more effort from anyone that wasn't Quinn or Roqaun.

I'm cynical.

Poles? Never fucking heard of him. But he comes from Da Cheifs? Ok. That worked out real well with Nagy huh?

Elderflubb? Ederfluss? Whatever the fuck his name is? Ok Colts had an OK defense for one season. They really shit the bed in a win or go home scenario so I guess he'll fit right in here. He also knows so little about offense that he brought in the Packers waterboy Getsy to help with that? Doesn't make sense to draft Fields and make that hire? I guess they think Fields is expendable? Already?

All first time guys? Should be real interesting. I would also like to have been a fly on the wall, when these guys were "wowing the socks off of George" while Polian was pouting in the corner.


I hope they do well. But I'm not even half mast over here. I'm flacid.
You couldn't be more wrong.

Polian was not pouting in the corner nor was George getting his socks wowed off.

Polian was right there in the middle of interviewing Poles and the other GM candidates and the HC candidates on the initial interviews. Polian told George "now sit down and don't open you mouth again" and George became a bystander.

(1:50 mark)

Once Poles was hired, Polian did not pout in the corner because Poles kicked his ass right out the door, along with the rest.

What I can’t get over is Eberflus met with George and team and then Poles. Surely they asked what his plan was for the offense and how to develop Fields.

And his answer is to hire Luke Getsy??? And the Bears were super excited about that direction?
Well, since you have already heard the Getsy plan, what exactly is it? Maybe if you could share the actual plan he gave them, would could give thoughts on it.

Oh, you weren't in the room and know nothing you say? Shocker.

So I knew a kid years ago in school named Eber Cruz. Ultra religious dork. Like this kid used to try and have talks with me about how God couldn’t be “triune” and that was a sacrilege. (He was a J Witness). So I’ve been calling our new coach Eber in my head this whole time.
Were you surprised that someone called Eber Cruz was an ultra religious dork seeing that Eber is basically Uber and Cruz is cross, so basically he was called Uber Cross?

Lovies team was so close. But they were fun to watch. It'd be swell to get a fun team to watch and maybe win a title. Crazy thoughts, I know.
This is true.

Lovie's teams were at least fun to watch.

Us fans have gone through years of Bears games that were like experiencing nails on chalkboards for hours.

Exactly !

It's been reported that, one of the other candidates actually came in with a plan for Fields .
However.....some ppl here will tell us ....." we don't know what happened in the interview. We weren't there".

:obama:
Wasn't it Trestman who had the Bears Super Bowl parade already planned for during the interview with George years ago?

All these HC candidates have to do to get the job most of the time is to blow more smoke up George's ass than the other candidates.

Maybe Caldwell's plan for Fields was real or maybe it was more smoke up George's ass.

Adams also had a lot of good things to say about him. So, there is that
That’s nice. I don’t have anything extremely positive or negative to say about the guy, I know next to nothing about him. Just wish we had some experience play calling but what it is what is. If he’s good we will see soon enough, same if he’s bad.

Maybe the Bears really aren't sold on Fields. Why build a staff around our greatest weakness. Hell we went to the super bowl with Rex Grossman and the Cover 2. --- Paraphrasing George's thoughts maybe.
