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

With the GM and HC being fired and Teddy being demoted do you think Tucker will really be around???

He will be gone - no worries.

No. But he should have been first. He should have been tarred, feathered, and chased out by south-siders wielding pitchforks.

His wife is from the southside, maybe she could lead them to his location!!!

There are reports teams are still trying to talk to Harbaugh.

 

It's possible they are keeping Tucker for the Rooney Rule interview, just in case Harbaugh says yes. they can get a quick interview in with Tucker and hire Harbaugh on the spot.

I am hearing the same as @Alex_Flanagan on Jim Harbaugh: NFL teams are calling him as we speak.

There is no way in hell they are keeping Tucker around to interview for a HC job. He has been fired, along with all other coaches. George just fired the GM and HC, it should be implied that the coaches are done too.

It's just weird they announced Kromer too. It's obvious he won't be here next year. Just throwing out a possibility. I know Michigan has Harbaugh wrapped up, Larry Foote reported he picked up Harbaugh at the airport. If the reports of him listening to calls are true instead, this could be Michigan's Dave McGinnis.

Harbaugh ain't coming to Chicago.

I've said the same thing Jason in another thread. He'd have been my first announcement. But I assume the Bears are simply going to say that all assistants under Trestman have also been notified of their termination. That's the professional way of doing it and it'll avoid them having to call someone out specifically. With that said, we all know that his performance was THE weakest link on the staff.

No need to honor Tucker with any recognition.

 

 

To the bestof my recollection, don't asst coaches usually hang on when a HC is fired? Thus leaving it up to the upcoming HC to clean house to his desire. I think Kromer was let go due to the leak...

Did Kromer have another position on the staff other than OC that would warrant his own announcement like Asst. HC?

ON such a happy day, I dont want to throw in the insane possibility he could be our next HC.

They handled everyone but Kromer like every NFL team does assistants and there are many reasons for this, one of which is to save money. Only Kromer was and that was because he was a buffoon in how he handled things. Tucker, while the results were not good, they actually improved and played with some heart. Terrible yes, but Tucker was about the only primary coach who handled himself with class.

 

Tucker, like pretty much everyone else on the coaching staff won't be around, but the Bears were at least smart enough to appreciate Tucker's professionalism and handled the removal of their assistants professionally, which is what a good organization should do.

Did Kromer have another position on the staff other than OC that would warrant his own announcement like Asst. HC?

No; They fired him because they wanted it to be known that they wanted to send a message that ownership did not approve of what he did. Case closed.

Yep...exactly the case. This is the status quo way of doing it in the NFL.

They keep assistants on and tell them they are free to look for employment elsewhere. If they are hired elsewhere, the Bears are off the hook for the salary. This is status quo in the NFL.

We have assistant coaches I like. Hoke, who I liked back when he was with Lovie. I think Reggie Herring has done a good job coaching LBs with improvement from Bostic and especially Jones. Even SMC, while not making enough plays improved during the season. Pasqualoni kept our Dline competent with two rookies, a guy off the street in Dunn filling in for Ratliff, Paea's best season by far, improvement in Washington, and Willie Young had his best season ever too. I'm not going to lose sleep if those guys leave but I think it's a decision the next HC should make.
