Nothing makes me feel more satisfied and content as a Bears fan than seeing some of these coach requests going out. My goodness.

I would be surprised if he gets one, but if I was a team I would in this cycle. One reason I'd be more interested in Kliff than Nagy is Kliff could always design a running scheme, and Nagy still has yet to show he can. But as a full HC, Nagy seemed more competent.

I would give him more credit (though not the defensive play calling)… getting that many secondary takeaways with a bottom 5 pass rush is impressive

I texted my friend I have this vision of Matthew Golden getting a 45 yard streaking touchdown over Wright to secure a 20-16 win. Seems so much like every packer game - the random no one getting a deep ball catch esp after bear fans keep gloating about golden.

so wild to me that Quinn soured on Kliff. That offense still had juice despite the terrible injuries. I'm assuming him and Jayden stopped getting along or something? If I'm Joe Schoen I'm putting my keys in his hands.

I think it was comin regardless...hell wasn't the story that Colts were moving on from him had Bears not hired him? I thought he did a decent job with our defense, but there is a low ceiling. Biggest issue is when you have a good offense, like he did in Dallas, his defense doesn't get the ball back to them (see Bears game where we had a like 12 minute drive in the third that iced the game). But when your offense is bad, it made it look like the games were 'close' because he limits the possessions. I don't think NFL offensive head coaches want a philosophy that limits their opportunities to score, and it's gonna be an issue for him. He also just never seemed to have good Dline play in terms of pass pressure. Extremely annoying how good Al Quadin Muhammed looks in seattle when he was absolute toast under flus. Maybe they thought that ayo guy would have same impact here but key is to avoid any indianapolis defensive lineman.

That said, go back to lake forest or wherever that was and enjoy a beautiful lake house and chill out, Flus.

I think biggest issue was he got help with Quinnen Williams, they looked decent (against Eagles only), and people got excited, then they were still terrible. Wasn't a great defense personnel wise but I think they are right to expect at least average given what he had and the division they were in.

Rams lost to panthers, seahawks looked weak for a half but then beat them by like 20. Seahawks look extremely strong.

I mean that's the thing. Maybe Kyler can help, but our linebackers - slow (esp edwards). Our Safeties - slow. Our Corners - so so slow.

I really was surprised Pete failed that badly, but I do think the thing to zero in no was all of his sons as Assistant coaches. Similar to end of Belicheck era, there seems to be a real decline when the coach gets tired of managing other coaches and just wants those he knows won't leave and won't challenge them.

I feel this is a jinx but still I can’t get over how high strung I was through October that Caleb may still not be the guy or Ben may not work and it really felt like in that Eagles game I finally got to let go and watch football without the story lines of “is this the person that delivers me or should I keep one foot out ready to jump” and just got to enjoy watching bears football trying to win. To be sure, that was a lot of lovie era, just being annoyed we weren’t quite better but often just being in the moment. From Mitch thru Justin, it was extremely “can we believe yet”. Glad that’s over.

Dang we get 1 APAC scout and he immediately turns Jerry into a weeb

Wow I’ve heard great things about this player. Amazed Sox were able to pull this off.

I used to like pff grades for offensive line and back end defense where I didn’t have view to see what was going on, but the positive grades it was giving to players like Coleman Shelton last year when our interior was constantly getting blown up soured me on it. Low and behold we replace all those schlubs and I see actual good Oline play so I’m just ok knowing I can’t really know.

My take with Luther was always that I love having Luther because I loved Luther (mizzou) but was criminal to not solve our holes. Well, in fact getting great players rules.

1 blind spot my life as a bears fan gave me was being extremely mad at our 2025 draft week 2. Ozzy and Turner were inactive, burden and colston were buried. hyppolyte was and still sucked, and our fifth round pick went MiA for some reason. My entire life meant these guys were busts. Development was a word I heard but never experienced so I just wrote them off. But now we have a psycho coach and this draft catapulted our season in the second half. Caleb is not a finished product yet and that’s not an insult, it means we are going to get an all Pro.

I am just so so tired of the Caleb Williams lecture remix we get every game. Brady thankfully stopped and he’s been great, as is Olsen. But we still get this excited moment where they get to lecture Caleb on making the smart play. Sure, but they act like Caleb has 20 interceptions and 60 sacks again. He’s made incredible progress and lead them to a title in a brutal division with two great defenses. so tiring.

I kinda felt opposite. Our starting LT last year is now 3rd string behind a rookie and younger guy. Added two pro bowl interior OL. Our best receiver was a rookie, best TE was a rookie. I think we overrated what we had, but Ben sprinkled hardcore psycho dust so that when Burden is out our run game gets affected because Rome and Burden are legit great blockers - and that’s all BJ

Yeah, we don’t really seem to have a 50/50 guy. He trusts Rome on those and no one else…and Rome sucks at it

The bears last two losses left me more exhilarated than certainly the Saints or raiders wins. We may finally have a team that can compete in every type of game. Pulling that game out would have been so fun but still I just kept pinching myself. Luther Burden is gonna break Johnny Morris’ records you heard it here first.

Ha, I said the same thing when he said Purdy was the difference in the game when it was 28-28

49ers have been on a tear. Definitely will need offense to beat any of the nfc west teams.

Been following the twitter fights on whether to trade Robert. Hard lines drawn on something that nobody views that impactful. On one side, some fans would rather keep due to painfully thin OF and dreams of 70 wins. On other, some fans point out he’ll not be around for next contention window and may get hurt and should trade now. Both seem to admit he’s unlikely to get much either way. So…don’t really care. Trading people is fun when they get back good players. Trading this guy to uh save money and optimize control but also he sucks and will get back nothing - not that appealing to me so who cares.

Marty Supreme was good. Pretty much par Safdie stuf
