I seen that DeFilppo coached with him in Carolina. A younger coach like him would need to lean heavy on a coach like Fangio, so he would need that Ass3t H.C. title and extra pay.
-
If they trimmed it down, I wonder if Toub got cut. He was a hot name early on with Chi and Ind. I would love to see how be does (not necessarily w the bears) because he his name gets thrown out there all the time. I know some will not like it, but I have a feeling Paces gut is with Mcdaniels. Some more McDaniel tidbits. Ed Donatell coached under him at Denver as well as his brother Ben McDaniels who are both with the Bears. Maybe Fangio stays with Donatell? We all know Mike McCoy, he also coached under Mcdaniels and he may go with him as OC. Adam Gace also coached with Mcdaniels, so the offense may even be spoken the same since Loggains kept things similiar.. If things work out, Pace may be able to keep continuity of the team nearly intact but lean heavy on offensive minds. The transition should pick up quicker.
-
He is not in yet, but a finalist. It is just a tough time to be excited about the news since we just finished regular season and have the HC firing to occupy us. Urlacher will have to work the ranks before he ever gets considered HC let alone the LB coach.
-
Fox is not a horrible coach and got the foundation built. The players loved him, almost seemed comparable to Lovie with some of the quotes as he said his goodbyes. Some losses were on Pace, some on Coaching, and some on we still needed time to add to the roster depth. The next hire will hopefully pick up were he left off and to the blocks laid out. This is why I see someone like Shumur or even Mcdaniels getting the nod over say Deflippo.

It would be interesting to scroll back a few years between the Emery firing and Pace hiring to see what everyone thought back then. How many years was first expected for us to be competitive etc. To me, this team or no team is going to win unless they have a QB. We think we have one now, let's see how it goes with Mitch and give this a chance. Signing the best FAs only eats cap, so you want to be within a window before you start opening the check book. We took so moderate chances on some FAs and missed, but we really didn't hurt ourselves too bad.

He came out arrogant his first go round and didn't survive two full seasons. I am not sold yet, but I am intrigued. Eventually the Belichick tree needs to grow. (Belichick is part of the Parcells tree and so is Sean Payton). Bill Polian, who the Bears highly regarded when they hired Ernie Acorrsi recommends going with a HC that has had previous experience. That will avoid the coach going through a learning curve...Mcdaniels fills that void. Pace originally said he wants to have an alignment between the GM, the HC, and QB as the foundation. Gonna need a OC/QB I here imo. Mcdaniels seems pretty logical as I connect the dots.
-
I agree with this also. Keep him out of personal.
-
That would be an interesting dual. I wonder if Key will put up similar numbers at the combine as Floyd. All I can say is we need a "Key" to success and maybe he can be just that.
-
Understand that, just didn't like Teddy opening up the show. Pace should have been extended before today. The whole show today put Pace in the shadow.
-
Starting to see Pace lacks balls. He sneaks them in during the draft but having Teddy come out and affirm his belief in Pace seemed bogus. That should have been done before today and Pace should have led today's pony show.
-
Same with Harbaugh. Gonna be a young mind, DeFilipo or Nagy. Still wouldn't mind Shumur.
-
Took until the 3rd year, but the key all along was getting a piece to build around. Trubisky is that piece, we were not going anywhere until we had that. We should start seeing progress in my eyes. Get a stud WR and to go with a healthy Meredith and the passing game will improve. Shaheen will be a weapon, Cohen a center piece. Build up the o line and we good.
-
I figured Chubb will be long gone by 8, but if he is there he will be a for sure. Pass rush is a must with the guys we have and there current contracts. OT will be a close 2nd, the run game was non existent today and protecting the one guy who defines your career is huge. WRs need to be found in FA and later in the draft.
-
As the season closes, the Bears will be looking at these names and others to add to the 2018 roster. I targeted what should be the the focal point of OLB, OT, and WR at the 7,8, or 9 slot. They may surprise us with a CB, S, G or another position, feel free to throw more names. Is there a player that we cannot pass if a trade down offer arises? The Bears need to hit a homerun once again with 3 to 4 additions. Do they trade down for quantity or take the quality.
-
They need to at least run a roll out giving Trubisky a decent run option if no one is open.
-
I believe the assistant coaches contracts expired after this season. It will be a matter of attracting them to re-sign here. Seen rumours of Fangio going to Oak or GB already.
-
5, 4, 3, 2 ,and that's a wrap. New Year new coaches!
-
I am growing on Pat Shumur as an option. It didn't matter who his QB was, he made them all look good. He knows the significance of having a good o-line. They made undrafted Adam Thielen and 5th rd Stefon Diggs stars. Running game, solid after losing high draft pick Cook.
-
Surprised to see the Bears rank first for most negative rush yards. Another sign they still need to improve the offensive line and play calling. With predictable play calling, that may be the main culprit. Clock is ticking for black Monday.
-
Green Bay should be held accountable for their mistake though. The NFL should penalize a 1st RD pick from them. That may be more damning to them than releasing Rodgers, who would probably re-sign with them if he was forced to be released. They are aging and need more young talent, so taking that pick would be a big blow.
-
I have heard reports that Peyton is interested in running a team. Not so sure at the GM level, but at the president level. If I was Virginia, I would kick Teddy out and welcome Peyton in. Maybe Peyton wants to take steps to get there which may involve some coaching duties.
-
I think Freeman is a gone, wish he could stay off the PEDs. As much as I like him, I think we are ok at ILB with Trevathon and Kwitkowski. I hope they re-sign Christian Cheese Jones as he filled in great too. I wouldn't mind seeing them spend a 5th or 6th on another, the guy I like is Azeem Victor from Washington. They say he compares to LeVonte David or Deon Jones.
-
I'm with you on keeping Sitton. Who knows how Long will return after another surgery. I would also keep Sims, I think the upside is still out there once the o Line gets patched and we find a #1 WR.
-
Good find AZ. Unless we can draft Chubb, I would prefer to move down and draft an OT in the first. I still like Arden Key, but liked the idea of getting a Carter or Armstrong Jr in the 2nd. Davenport seems intriguing with that length and it would be another great option in the 2nd if he lasts. Our D is stout even with the injuries we endured. It would be great to see it healthy with 2 OLBs that can cover or get after the QB fast. Teams would have trouble knowing where the rush is coming from outside while still trying to contain Hicks and Goldman.
