Coach A is Brady Hoke. Coach B is Jim Harbaugh.

Hoke went 11-2 and then 8-5 and 7-6...and then laid a huge egg in his fourth season.

Harbaugh is 10-3, 10-3, and 8-2 thus far. Pretty different trajectory.

Harbaugh also had a little bit of success in a power conference and the NFL prior to joining Michigan.

 

 

 

 

Ya I think Harbaugh has proven to be a pretty outstanding coach. May be a bit of a psycho but dude can coach football.

If they haven't decided by then, which to me is very unlikely, the attendance at the Bears/Cleveland game at Soldier Field on Christmas Eve will convince the McCaskeys change is needed.

Did Sims get mono? Damn

John Fox isn't gonna tell you. Imagine how much worse his Bears record would be if he didn't hide injuries so well from opponents. And the media

..Wow... just wow. No words.

 

Fox is a moron, but am I the only one who doesn’t have an issue with this? Aren’t here HIPPA laws for a reason?

You have a point, I read it quickly and don't catch that. It just sounded like his usual beating around the bush, but that would make sense reading it again. Although he could be more straight forward.

 

But why do the HIPPA laws only matter for illness but not injury? Every injury is reported in full depth, even when Miller almost died.

The NFL requires certain amounts of information to be released during the week to satisfy the gamblers and to play in the league the players are waiving some of those rights under the CBA. Different teams push the CBA limits to different extents. The Patriots I believe have a history of being as opaque as they can be under those injury reports.

Fantastic. Evidently we brought in Saintos for a workout. He'd be a great signing to replace Barth (even if he is coming off one good game...he still sucks).

also, illnesses fall under a different category than injuries for reporting. Injuries need to be a little more specific, for the gamblers to predict if he'll play or how long he'll be out.

For every great one-hand catch I see, I swear there are 3 or 4 drops that might have been caught if the guy went after it with both hands. OBJ started a revolution, and I am not on board.

Jerry Jones is either really racist or not very good at humor.

Most likely all of the above

I really don't know what they're waiting for to sign him, unless he isn't 100% yet or they're giving Barth one last go on Sunday. If this is the case, I hope they lose 20-17 and Barth misses two FG's. Santos is a really good K.

I have to think hes not 100% and they're making contact to let him know as soon as he's 100% they're going to sign him. I think Bears fanbase and Pace are pretty ready to see the Bar(f)th era come to a close.

Santos has seen a few teams in the last couple weeks, I think he is picking his spot since there isn’t really a hurry for him

I think with kickers with a lot of choices, the Bears are at a disadvantage because Soldier Field is thought of as a tough place to kick.but money talks, and the Bears have a ton of cap space.

I'm no fan of Barth, but he had a great game last week. Three 40 plus yarders in some pretty s***ty conditions
