Tom Waddle's speech to the Bears Team

[SERE Bear]

Seems Reasonable enough.

Love it. Waddle for coach.

 

[DMelt36]

I think tl;dr version here is simply RUN THE FUCKING BALL

 

[ijustposthere]

Waddle is the rarest of cases in that he's a former Chicago Bear who's actually worth the listen.

You mean he doesn't go full meatball like Urlacher and Hampton?

Or Mongo. Or Buffone. Or OB. Or Sayers.

 

[Staleydabear1938]

*slow clap into fast clap*

this is fucking epic.

LOL, yeah, I was going to add them. Ditka too. At least with a couple of those guys they go full meatball for the Bears.

 

[How about this]

I think it's pretty brilliant.

These guys are really good as compared to the 2 Clowns over on the Score during the same time period! Football Fridays with Waddle and Silvy are the best. Lots of good guests and no babbling idiocy like Dan I am smarter than you Berstein, and his echo Terry Boers.

 

[Packer Fan]

Tom Waddle has a potty mouth.

 

[Bears1985defense]

Amen brother.

 

[JoJoBoxer]

I thought it was pretty damn good, and common sense. Love the part about chicks with mustaches where they said, "if I can see she has a mustache, then she sure as hell can see it."

Is Waddle calling long a chick?

I love that folks want them to run the ball. the problem is Forte is a better receiver than running back. Is he a good running back, yep when there is a hole, but when there isn't a hole one arm brings his arse down. I guess many of you don't actually watch those runs up the middle when the ball is on the 15 yard line and Forte loses two every down. I agree with run the ball more, however, the team has to be good enough to do that. This front line is not good enough. Oh well, I'll be criticised for this post, but it is a fact.

It's the same problem that they have with Fuckler. Forte can pound the ball up the middle, when there are big holes up the middle. But it's not his forte(hyuck hyuck). You've gotta get him outside. You've gotta get creative with him. You've gotta create space. Really, we just have to get him the ball. Even a designed short pass like the "running" game the Patriots have used in the past will get him and this offense going. But thinking he's Jerome Bettis and expecting him to push the pile and truck people just ain't gonna happen.

Instead, you gameplay and playcall to his strengths. Which goes back to what I was saying earlier about Fuckler, if you abandon the running game on the first possession of the game, and want Fuckler to throw the ball 50 times a game, you're asking for a loss.

Smart coaches know this. Smart coaches don't put their stars in impossible situations where they are destined for failure. Right now, we have a coach that doesn't want to run the ball with one of the best running backs in the league. And instead, asks a turnover prone QB to throw the ball all day long.

Stupid, food for the meatballs though. LOL.

And why forte is watched by the defense to take that away. the play where Cutler is in shotgun and forte is on his side, where Cutler takes the snap takes one step back and then pitches to forte worked great last year. I don't recall seeing that yet this year. Nope forte up the gut for no gain. my god how many fnn times do we have to watch that loser play?

 

[grenade007]

Love it. Waddle and Silvy are the best duo on radio imo

 

[DJMoore_is_fat]

All the Tom Waddle speeches in the world couldn't stop Jay from throwing atrocious 4th quarter interceptions.

 

[Naptastic]

good stuff. It is amazing how underutilized Forte is. Its almost embarassing that we have one of the best RB's in the NFL, but treat him like a redheaded stepchild.

Tom Waddle actually knows what he is talking about, compared to most Chicago sports radio "experts."
