Playing this game are the following people: Lovie Smith and Jerry Angelo. Who will be fired if this season is a bust? (more…)

Mike Martz had guaranteed that “the Bears’ receivers will be a strength” earlier in the year. Wow, what choice words; take that EA Sports! It seems now that the only thing to do is have the  guys who make the Madden rosters  rehash their pitiful ratings of Bears’ receivers. At least someone is optimistic about our aerial attack.

Here is the deal: We don’t have time, nor always the will, to make a post out of every semi-significant Bears-related tidbit that hits the InterWeb. But, to satisfy you readers and make sure that we keep on top of everything, we’re bringing you short and precise annotated Bears highlights every Tuesday and Thursday, now, Wednesday. This is our link-dumpish effort. (more…)

If Michael Bay was, at all, interested in the NFL, we imagine that this behind-the-scenes video of the Chicago Bears war room would be something similar to his creation. Except, with smaller explosions. (more…)

By now, a decision has already been made on the respective futures of Lovie Smith, Ron Turner and the rest of the Bears coaching staff. It’s just that I’m stuck at work right now, so unfortunately, I won’t be able to update this thing. Ah, see how I did that: I’m writing from the future! (more…)

John Mullin is certain his return is imminent; Bears fans: Not so much. Since the team made the conscious decision to become utterly unwatchable in Week 7, fans and media alike have speculated about the future of Lovie Smith and pondered over whom his successor might be should he get the axe. Oh, how fun! We figured the least we could do was make it easier for you to follow the craziness by introducing the Chicago Bears Head Coach Rumor Mill. (more…)

Well, that will take a little suspense out of the upcoming offseason. CSN’s John Mullin was just on Chicago Tribune Live and it appears, according to his “pretty high-up sources”, Lovie Smith will indeed be coming back to coach the Bears next year. Sigh. Surely, more to come … (more…)

I bet most of us felt like this fella after the Packers game.

I was a Lovie supporter after past seasons. I legitimately thought he was the right man for the job and Jerry Angelo was the problem. Now, both can go hop in a car to find a cliff as far as I’m concerned.  (more…)

Wanted to take a quick minute to run through the various coaching changes we could be looking at after the year. Dependent on how we finish the season, we could have a completely new coaching staff. I’ll run down the possibilities of Lovie and/or Ron leaving us and hypothesize on what will most likely happen. (more…)

Midway through the fourth quarter and the Vikings have a rather comfortable 30-10 lead over the Bears. To be honest, I’m not really in to the game, but from the little pieces I have picked up, the following milestones have occurred: Favre threw his 500th career touchdown pass, Cutler threw his league-leading 20th completion to a non-teammate, and for the third-straight week, Lovie Smith made a halftime phone call inquiring about the availability of the head-coaching job at Bethune-Cookman. (more…)

Honestly, all Bears fans would probably prefer the Super Bowl-winning, square-jawed head coach to the frustratingly stoic Lovie Smith. To watch the franchise painfully stagnate in mediocrity isn’t fun, but swapping head coaches isn’t the most important coaching change to make. Besides, Bill Cowher to the Bears isn’t likely to go down anyway. (more…)
