Follow Dan Bernstein ‏@dan_bernstein The #Bears assistant coaches have been told to look for work. Kromer's firing was announced specifically because they were mad at him https://twitter.com/dan_bernstein/status/549704408574210048

I watched the press conference as many others did as well. The comment or line that stuck out the most to me was when someone asked George McCaskey how his mother Virginia has felt during this whole process. George got a bit choked up which was nice to see some emotion and said, "She is in agreement, has been supportive.....She's Pissed Off!" Not sure that still having Ted Philips in any Football Operations position is good thing however, it seems like the family is starting to get it on how we the fan base feels and hopefully it will be the start of a true move in the right direction!

Bringing in a consultant to give Teddy advice isn't what I expected to hear. Accorsi might be a solid advisor but the same team of morons who picked Emery and Trestman are still the final deciders on this set of hires. THAT DOESN'T INSPIRE MUCH CONFIDENCE. I'd say this was all complete bullshit but I still love this team and hope for the best. But I'm not a fan of Phillips and think he needed to fall on his sword in some fashion. If he's honestly still involved in the football decisions of this team, we'll be having this same discussion again in a few years. God save us....

george inferring to choosing candidates with "We" meaning ted phillips. talking about hiring consultants to find the GM with no time frame involved. oh well, so it goes

He was hired as the consultant for the search for a new GM and Coach.

Interested in coaching not front office. Did not say he was interested in the Bears job or not.... Just wondering what everyone thinks about him as the HC? He won a SB in GB and got the Seahawks to one as well.

Guys, I think it's noteworthy that it seems like nobody "hates" Trestman. I think we're unified in believing it was time for him to go but there aren't any of the usual type of posts regarding his departure. I remember how much I hated Wanny at the end of his term and there were certainly Lovie haters when his time came. I guess it's mostly because we feel like he was a good guy who was in over his head and the venom belongs elsewhere, with those that put him in the role in the first place. Let's hope we don't have to fire our next coach for a LONG LONG time.

Years past the Bears would win a meaningless game to screw up their draft position, the Bears would keep their HC and fire the assistants. ] Not this year, Bears lose, keep the 7th pick and George goes ahead and fires the GM and HC and may demote Ted Phillips!!!!! In the words of Ice Cube = Today is a good day!!!!!!!

Dude should be run out of the NFL. He should have been fired before Emery, Trestman, or anyone else.

Who can be cut without detriment to the team? I don't give a damn if it's half the team, to be quite honest. I think Jared Allen is untouchable because of the money, but who else falls into that boat? The only players on defense who I want kept are cheap, good, or financial obligations. But I don't have a real interest in any except Jennings, Peanut, Fuller, Jones, Jennings, Young, and Paea.

Take cutler with ya

if what we are seeing is truly in the works then we really may see a change in how this franchise operates and is perceived. the rumors are out there that from the top down they have used the phoenix effect. burn this franchise to the ground and let it rise from the ashes. if so, then there is finally real hope for this team and it's fans. it seems it is starting from the very top: virginia mccaskey (a very good read)... http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2014/12/29/ber...d-bears-action/ moving ted phillips out of football operations and really hire a team president in that respect. these things are way more important than just hiring and firing a new c…

According to TheScore, Ted Phillips will only handle the business side of things from this point forward. The Bears intend to hire a true president to run the show. Let the Holmgren rumors begin to swirl.

didn't want him

Let the heads roll

As an undrafted free agent, Jones finished third on the team with 68 tackles. He also had 2 sacks. I believe he has earned a starting position next year. Thoughts? Peace

Watching Countdown, Tom Jackson and Ditka endorsed Trestman. Ditka stated, "Can't win with Cutler". Not new news, but damn...
