@JasonLaCanfora: Gus Bradley finalizing a deal to coach the Jags.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 10:30 PM) Certainly, it is helpful and can be more or less so depending on what you're doing and how you use it. It just bothers me that this kid (much like Marcus Stroman) will be marked as a "user" now. Bears former QB Jim Miller is a user too, lol

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 11:29 PM) The only way I accept Tebow on any roster is the last man. And in that position his function would be primarily decoy but if you can get the other team to spend time preparing for him that is likely more than you get out of your normal last man. Im sure Trestman thinks Tebow is a Steve Young waiting to be groomed like a Japanese garden. There is no circumstance that I would accept Tebow on the Bears. Lets completely forget the fact that he is a QB that cannot do the basic function of a QB, which is throw the ball, and lets point out how much of a distraction he would bring to the team. No. f***ing. Way.

i was going to split this into its own thread, but i got halfway through and said f*** THIS BULLs***

This rumored coverup has so many holes in it based on Te'os actions, there really is no point. Just come clean.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 03:57 PM) He probably knows the difference between the NFL and college, though. LMAO

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 03:55 PM) Someones ass is going to be on the line here. I just have this strange feeling that Deadspin went a little to far. Youd have thought SI would vet the story a little bit before publishing and actual confirm that the girl was real. When you are dealing with online/public persona's its not always ascertain the birth name. Im sure that some people in this thread have been shocked to find out what their friends "real name" is. And if you didnt know it, you might not be able to find any of their records either. I use Lexis Nexis as part of my job, aliases show up just like regular names. I would find it pretty strange that she both attended Stanford and passed away due to these tragic circumstances and NOTHING is in LN, or the local papers. THen seeing what Tauisosopa was doing, thats seeming pretty shady. And nobodies ass is on the line at deadspin. THis is what they do. Sometimes the dirt pans out, sometimes it doesnt. It wouldnt be the first time something blew up in their face

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 02:12 PM) I would love to see that happen. shut your cheese lovin pie hole

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 09:24 AM) I CAN'T BELIEVE DA BEARS WUD HIRE A GUY FROM CANADIA The Score meatheads are in rare form this morning

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 08:52 AM) Dave Toub also coached with Reid before. Yeah, Toub mentioned that Reid brought him in to the league, and tried multiple times to hire him away from the bears

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 08:35 AM) This was more the fact that Toub directly competed with Trestman for the job and Trestman was the better man. There could be a lot of sour grapes in that situation. Sounds like one of the guys we interviewed for HC might end up our special teams coach. FWIW Toub was just interviewed on Mully and Hanley and it didnt sound like sour grapes at all. First off, he just became the highest paid ST coach in the league, and second off, he said it was time to try something new and see if he could succeed elsewhere. He was very complimentary of Trestman and of Emery interviewing him, he said it didnt feel like a sham interview, he really felt like he was given the opportunity to earn the job.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 08:04 AM) Eh, other than OL and TE what other needs does this team have? The defense is pretty good across all levels, definitely NFL average or better. The RB's are solid, the QB is set. I'm really not opposed to going after a big name WR as long as there is a plan behind it to fix the OL. A Marshall-Wallace-Jeffery-Bennett WR group with a competent TE and Matt Forte could be really, really dangerous. Thats what I said in the followup post, TE and OL are much more pressing needs. Of course that WR group would be great, but Wallace is going to be an in-demand FA and I dont want the Bears jumping to the top of the bidding before they address other needs.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 07:48 AM) Hester really doesn't count as a WR under contract, IMO. He is, whether you like it or not. Hopefully he is dealt, but still, Bennett was just given new paper and you have Alshon lining up too. No need to go out and get a big FA WR over more pressing needs

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 07:01 AM) Jerry Rice compares Trestman to Bill Walsh. It was a very nice hire for the Bears. I got to meet Trestman when he was with the 49ers, he seem like a great guy Look for the Bears to sign a guy like Mike Wallace, Trestman loves having 2 star WR's lets not get crazy with the cheesewhiz here. The Bears have 3 WRs with big contracts in Marshall, Bennett and Hester, and they have Jeffery. Going out and getting Mike Wallace is not addressing the need of the offense, which is first and foremost Offensive Line. And probably tight end next.

QUOTE (lord chas @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 06:52 AM) Bud Grant And Marv Levy. Nothing recent though

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 15, 2013 -> 08:17 PM) I wonder how much the disappearance of Hester had to do with the turnover in the special teams blockers, it didn't seem like he had the same holes as in the past. It started going bad when Ayenbadejo left, and gradually key guys like Corey Graham ended up leaving and nobody stepped up in their places unfortunately

Fwiw I didn't know about that Christian hardy until my buddy texted me. He could be a kOna, he could be a Mr Fantasy Expert. We shall see

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 15, 2013 -> 07:30 PM) I don't think the way to do that though is to decrease the points the Special Teams' scores The disappearance of Hester has reduced the ST scoring ability to pretty much Robbie Goulds leg. Toub is a good coach, but he can be replaced. Bringing the offense to a respectable level should more than offset Toubs loss

@TheFFAddict: @Cardschatter @Mwanamatapa @RapSheet I've reported that Trestman is resigning in Montreal and becoming HC of the #Bears.

i am sure the part where Anthony is trash talking the other way will be completely edited out

Bulls fans couldnt have had two more extremes from the championships to post-championship era. It was truly the highest of highs and lowest of lows.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jan 15, 2013 -> 10:57 AM) Anyone aware of any connections between Marinelli and Trestman? I find it doubtful that Trestman would have his defensive coordinator be somebody that he doesn't know. Biggs actually talked about how it would be preferable for Trestman to keep Marinelli around to maintain the defense. It is why Marinelli is still under contract

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jan 15, 2013 -> 10:04 AM) Looks like Greg Roman will get the Jaguars job, with Alex Smith following him there thats right, I knew someone was connected there already
