What about that color commentator on FOX's NFL show? Jimmy Johnson.

You don't want him. You saw what happened in Miami. He'd NEVER co-exist with Angelo.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

The current owners hate the coach... Halas senior brought him in... and after his death, the family got rid of him as soon as they could. At least he got us our Super Bowl before they managed it.Keep on Civin'

Ditka!
Seriously, that would be freaking awesome. Saturday Night Live would be infinitely better after Ditka's return, for example, and that's just one of the myriad of benefits.KH FOR OWNER!

Yeah, and I think the Giants are first in line for New England's Defensive Coordinator. The Bears may be talking to Coughlin soon.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Spurrier situation (from John clayton of ESPN) --
He and Snyder are on the outs, but are held together by the 3 yr/$15MM left on his contract. snyder wants change, so that means asst. coaches shuffle. Per Clayton, Spurrier's going golfing for a week or two to let Snyder settle down, then come back and decline to make any staff changes (his right according to contract). Spurrier's goal is reportedly to p1ss Snyder off enough that he's offered a good buyout.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

Personally, I agree with the Jauron firing.
His in-game coaching and clock management would be an embarrassment on the high school level. His loyalty to his staff (John Shoop) at the expense of the team is unforgiveable. His inability to accurately evaluate and deploy talent is legendary (Urlacher at SAM LB, superior rookies rotting on the bench, taking YEARS to figure out that Azumah was his missing kick returner, etc etc).
Yes, he has his positives -- a fine motivator, very intelligent, an honorable man, and, uhhhh....... good hair?
Yes, I think the Bears would likely make the playoffs next year with him at the helm. And we'd likely be drubbed in the first round again.
So why bother?
I agree with Sava. (
) Let's think Super Bowl. And a good coach will still make a playoff run with the same talent.
Plus, the continuity would be forward-going.
Plus, he'd have the support of Angelo.
Do I have confidence the Bears will hire such a coach?
No.
Do I think Angelo is a strong GM?
Not really. I think he's a snake, but he's clearly got the power, so I'll judge the new "5 year plan" on its merits.
Yesterday, Angelo said NFL head coaching experience is "not a requirement" in his considerations. He also said the decision on a new coach would be "solely" his.
Summary: Change is scary, but the Chicago Bears need it.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

The Bears owners are cheap
Head Coaching experience isn't needed
The GM is the MAN IN CHARGE = The Coach must be a company guy
Conclussion: Another Jauron type coachKeep on Civin'

Hey, do you think there is anyway that we could all participate together in one of those 10 x 10 grid pools here for the playoffs? You know, the ones where you pick a square for $5 and then when all of the squares are filled, you place numbers 0-9 randomly along x & y axis. X & Y are the two teams playing. Your square is the intersection of two numbers. If the last number of each teams score at the end of the game represents the numbers for your square, you win.
So maybe we could use an online escrow account as the kitty, and have someone trustworthy like Ming to pick the random numbers.Comment

I just heard on ESPN Radio that the Bears have asked for, and received, permission to interview Lovie Smith.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

Nevermind about the pool idea. I could make the grid thing work, but it would be too complicated to sort out the finances....Comment
