Official, Brand Spanking New, 2020 Chicago Bears Thread - Gotta be better than 2019? (It's NOT)

[CMNTMXR57]

As always. We trade away talent and they become superstars on other teams...

Floyd has been tearing it up the past few weeks actually.

Maybe the Rams coaches actually know how to get their players to play to their potential? Bears coaches surely don't. Bears weren't close to ready for the N.O. game.

I say burn the house down. Phillips is untouchable so fire Pace, Nagy and every other coach and start fresh. Do it fast before the good ones are snapped up.

Playing opposite of Aaron Donald had to help some. No Mack isn’t on Donald’s level, not even close. Maybe Mack 5yrs ago was on Donald’s level.

Donald has a ton to do with it, but Hicks is no slouch. I’d think Hicks and Mack would be as effective at taking double teams and most of the blocking protections as Donald?

Mack has lost a step if not 2. Not sure if injured or what the deal is. He wasn’t double teamed as much as people think this year. Hicks is a beast but is inside.

Donald is inside too... While he is the most dominant at that position, I’d take Hicks in a heartbeat for my team too given the chance....

He definitely changes the rest of the defense though and makes them better. Raiders got Littleton from the Rams and he stunk ass on the Raiders. Can’t figure out if the old DC couldn’t utilize him or Donald made him that much better.

 

[Blood on Blood]

Anyone fired yet?

 

[Flyn]

The Bears, both Offense and Defense did not play like a team that wanted to win. Look at Cleveland for comparison.

Bears were playing to save jobs. Don't lose by 30.

 

[FESTER665]

 

[Aircal]

Isn't New Orleans like the 2nd ranked Defense? Bears did ok for a good part of the game.

 

[GLADIATOR]

Nagy and Pace stay. Look for some wild signings for 5 1 st rounders, then they get fired after going 0-5

Huh, they had 3 points up until 10 seconds left.

Pagano supposedly retired, Im thinking forced out.

Hate being right all the time

That’s our prize for that sorry ass team backing in to playoffs. I’m pretty confident Pace for sure and possibly Nagy would have been fired had they missed the playoffs.

 

[Flyn]

Sigh. All we can do now is hope they get their shit together. Let's see who they hire for DC. Hopefully, they don't promote someone from in house.

Any word that Denver might fire Fangio?

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Well, his defense pretty much "retired" towards the end of the season, so it is fitting...

As far as Pace/Nagy... So the mediocrity will continue.

 

[Aircal]

I thought they said it was the lowest scoring 1st half in the playoffs. Both defenses played good the first half.

 

[Flyn]

Saints adjusted. Bears did not.

 

[GLADIATOR]

 

[Flyn]

They can't even use Pagano as a scapegoat properly. Eased out as a "retirement" rather than a firing. George Halas would have tossed all their asses out by now.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

That is the rumor. They brought Chuck in and "suggested" that he retire. They got their scapegoat and they don't look any worse because they didn't fire him adding to that abortion of a presser today...

 

[GLADIATOR]

Ugh

 

[CMNTMXR57]

It might've been Tuesday on the Parkins/Spiegel show on the Score, they were talking about "is it time that you find/pick and support another team?

 

[Flyn]

Luckily for me, I live close to Tampa Bay now. Go Brady!
