****Official 2014 Chicago Bears Thread **** (1 Viewer)

enough is enough with this crap... every facet of the team is struggling... you had a freakin blocked XP for crying out loud. I'd fire trestman today, put kromer as interim... then fire them all after the season including Phil Emery.

 
My positive comments from last night's game

1) At least they didn't give up 50 and held Murray to under 200 yards.

2) They matched their highest season point total

3) They executed their first onside kick in over 10 years.

4) Chris Conte's injury wasn't another concussion. This guy is falling apart literally.

5) Cutler, Forte, Jeffery and Bennett were all good fantasy starts.

6) Cutler could have easily had more than 1 interception

That's about all I can think of. KCitons - you are the Bears optimist so I assume you can add a few things.

Kyle Fuller gets owned by everyone. I know he's been battling injuries but he sucks right now. DROY? What a joke

I don't completely agree with this statement. A couple of times he has been beaten by perfect throws and catches to Calvin and Dez and he was with them step for step. I thought he did a decent job on Dez but Calvin owned him. If you want to judge a rookie going up against arguably the 2 best WR in football then you are being a little harsh. There were times when Romo had about 10 minutes to throw the ball last night and it is difficult to continue covering WRs for that long.

I also don't think you can minimize the effects of Fuller's injuries and his toughness playing through them has impressed me.

I think you covered most everything. It was a tough game to watch, it's obvious that the Bears came out less than motivated for this game. Phil Simms actually had a good point last night, there doesn't appear to be anyone on the Bears sideline that can fire this team up. Have you ever seen Trestman angry? Has he every yelled at a player or ref in game? It doesn't come from Cutler or Forte either. Marshall is one of the few vocal guys on the team, and when he yells, it gets blown out of proportion.

We need a leader. I was hoping Long, or Bostic, or Allen would step into this role, but it doesn't seem to be working. As much as I hate to say it, Urlacher may have been the glue that held this all together.

What do we do moving forward? I don't think blowing the whole thing up is the answer unless you have a proven coach that can make an immediate impact. (Gruden, Cower, Harbaugh, etc) Bringing in another coordinator is no guarantee of success. Especially if the problem is with Emery. We may jump from the frying pan into the kettle. I'm hoping for smaller changes. Defensive coaching staff needs to go. The first, second and third round picks need to go to Offensive line and defensive line. There is very little out there in the free agent market for OL in 2015. (Iupati) We need to be able to open holes for Forte, and give Cutler a few extra seconds to throw. Many of the other pieces are in place.

Also, I would like to know why Cutler hasn't been rolling out much this year? I know they think the OL is good enough to block. But, there have been games that he's been under fire a lot. They used to roll him out to give him a little more time. :shrug:

That's all I got.

Don't even man. Not a chance in hell so don't even post his name in this thread.

Management would never be that shrewd/aggressive. That kind of good fortune does not come to this franchise.

Middle of the 3rd quarter there was a mass exodus from Soldier Field, so I moved to 10th row behind the Bears bench (D/ST side). Ratliff and Allen were trying their best to fire people up, especially Allen. I couldn't see the offense side too well

 
Broken beyond recognition. I have never seen a Bear defense or special teams this ####ty. You think you have seen it all? Just wait until you see more stupidity in the off season. Bet they fire the crummy coordinators and keep Trestman and Emery...

ha...it did actually. Only allowed 2 fg's after that

 
#Bears HC Marc Trestman says no staff changes on the docket -

If setting records for most points allowed in team history and worst ST in the league won't force this team to make changes, nothing will. Embarrassment.

 
Everybody with season tickets should sell them to Saints fans for this next game, which is worse than not going, or worse than going and booing.

Sell them at a discount, "whatever it takes."

Get on Twitter and Facebook and voice your displeasure there too. #### it, call 'em all out, start a social media riot. They deserve it.

This team is even worse than the latter Wannstedt & early Jauron years. No idea how we have five wins. That's right, we got lucky.

This stinks! Not because they keep getting blown out, but rather, because real hope is a long way off.

It would be very unlike the Bears to fire Trestman with the remaining years on his contract. Mel will, consequently, be the sacrifice. Since Trestman will then be a head coach "on thin ice", no real good D-Coordinator or other coaches will want to come here (at least none that have had past success or are up and comers). So a re-tred or project will be the stop gap. Then, in 2-3 years, Trestman and Emery get canned (or not renewed), and this cycle repeats. This is the same nonsense that happened with Lovie towards the end of his tenure. Too bad the Bears management continues to make the same mistakes over-and-over ... And, over.

The Bears president, Phillips, has to retire from the Player/Personel side and just focus on the accounting matters. There must be a complete housekeeping here and the inserting of a NFL Player/Personnel Co-President before we can really build the franchise Chicago deserves.

What's Wade Phillips doing right now?

Then they won at Jets on Monday night. 2 straight road wins and the ship was righted after the hiccup in the opener. We were on track to begin cruising.

Holy #### WTF happened?

 
Actually I thought they'd be just good. 10-11 wins. Didn't figure them to win the division but thought a wildcard was guaranteed.

Absolutely. Thought the offense could contend for best in football and the D would be much improved.

 
Bears flat out stink. Their line is weak, Marshalls hurt, done for year, Cutler sux and their defense is horrendous. Bottom feeder ### clowns. Do we need a thread for this MOD?

 
I just can't figure out how professional organization can survive like this. Everyone and their mother knew Mel should've been fired last year and it just wasn't done. Your common every day fan could see it. Such an embarrassment. I'm eager to see the next blunder they will make so I can laugh at it too.

 
These reports just lend credence to what we have known for years - this ownership is pathetic. They are now regretting paying a king's ransom for an overpaid malcontent. I had a great laugh at this one. Again - why do people pay hard earned money to go see this clown car extravaganza? Trade Cutler? I mean really with this crap? Who is the moron that decided to pay this chump all this money? Keep counting the cash Prince Georgie Boy.

 
If Emery can't draft, what difference does it make if we are slotted in the 8-10 range? There are so many bad teams this year, there's no way we get higher than 7th.

Barring significant improvement, Im told the #Bears plan to part ways with defensive coordinator Mel Tucker after this season.

What a surprise, Captain "Ian" Obvious (sarcasm).As long as Ted Phillips can say one of these two things every time ownership looks his way (1) the GM needs a little time, but we need to replace the coach or (2) we need to replace the GM ... the Bears will continue to be mired in mediocrity. He has made the Bears ownership so much money on the advertising, stadium and business side of things that he is nearly untouchable, and he should be. But, only in that role.

He does not know "shut your mouth" about football operations. Mediocrity ... Or worse.

Ridiculous.

The embarrassment of the second Packers alone should get this whole damn staff fired. But it will be the same ol #### year after year. You know the Pack players have to love it when they see the Bears twice a year. I'm sure they're all laughing about it before the game starts. Bunch of sorry quitters on this team. But there is no accountability and there never will be. Losers
