UPDATE: John Fox in negotiation with Bears to become next head coach

[Smokey Robinson]

We can beat GB with Cutler, who will probably be here one more year, IF OUR DEFENSE ISN'T TERRIBLE. We'd obviously have to put up more than 14 points of offense. And Jay can't turn the ball over 2-3 times. It's all connected, but Jay isn't playing DL, LB, CB or S. It's POSSIBLE, but yes, hard to do.

Idk about that. We had a very strong D for the majority of the time Cutler has been in a Bears uniform and he has 1 win against GB. His play against GB has simply been pathetic. Every year I would get my hopes up that this is the time Jay puts it together and lights the Packers up but every year he buckled.

The only way could beat GB would be to limit Rodgers and hand the ball off to Forte/Carey. Jay's only pass attempt would be a shovel pass

And he'd probably still dig the Bears grave with it.

Oh cmon he can throw the WR screen as good as anybody!

Did you see the one he air mailed to Jeffery against MN?

Pick 6 to the new GB fat ass in the middle on a shovel pass...

I could see that happening

Air mail is faster than regular mail.

He was just throwing that away because he is such a great decision maker.

 

[EL ROCKSTEADY]

Anti-Shanny=knowing that Cutler isn't a franchise QB?

I doubt this

 

[bearmick]

So Carrol should have been fired right? This myth that teams just magically become consistently good is just that a myth. To have anything more than a mirage miracle season you need to string together years of successful drafts.

to have sustained success, you certainly need to draft consistently well. I didn't say anything to the contrary. I said that the whole "we're years away from competing" thing is silly in a league with this much parity. Outside of the top few teams (Seattle, GB, NWE types) and the bottom few (Oak, Jax, Tenn), everyone is pretty much interchangable on an annual basis.

If you look at the last 20 years we are a bottom team. In fact Jax has made the playoffs more than the Bears. I do agree to a point though. I expect consistent improvement each year and to hopefully start to feel like we are contending by year 3. It won't take 5 years to be a good team if we draft right.

 

[Scoot26]

You mean Vainisi I think.

Finks pretty much built that team. Jerry just put the cherry on top.

Jerry started out wildly successful with that 1983 draft, after that there's Wilbur Marshall and Neal Anderson so not much draft hype outside of that. Then McCaskey decided he could do everything better and got rid of him. So I feel like if he had more years we'd maybe see more of what he had. Its also hard to say how much meddling McCaskey was already doing though.

Air mail is faster than regular mail.

Smokin fast?

Smokin fast?

Smokin Jay Cutler throwing smokin' fast air mails to Air Jeffrey fast.

 

[onebud34]

Smokin Jay Cutler throwing smokin' fast air mails to Air Jeffries fast.

FIFY

Jay was the reason Trestman was hired

Thank you. It's a shame most fanboys don't get this. Or maybe they don't care like their coach killing man-crush... (i'm looking at you Despbro)

 

[OnemanWolfpack]

Hiring Fox will be like going to a strip club. Sure you'll probably get to see some playoff titties. And everybody loves some titties but you'll still go home with championship blue balls.

Why would you use data from 20 years ago?

It's why Emery was fired, he let Jay hire Trestman. Cutler sucks on the field and in the front office. Why do we have this guy?
