Most likely he just became lame duck like Jauron did when Angelo came on. Lovie better hope that the new GM doesnt set him up to fail like Angelo did to Jauron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hard to fire Lovie over this mess...he did what he was supposed to do...he had them headed for the playoffs with the roster that was given to him. I don't know what exactly Lovie thought of Caleb, but my guess is ultimately was Angelo's call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I think Lovie stays, and if they team fails next year, then he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly I don't think Lovie is a problem so I don't care. Actually it wouldn't surprise me that the bears target the Polians who probably like Lovie.

HuskyCaucasian Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The problem with the Polians is they haven't exactly done a great job in Indy the last few years either. Draft problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it wouldn't surprise me that the bears target the Polians who probably like Lovie. That is an interesting thought. I wonder if this was done because the Polians were fired in Indy?

LittleHurt05 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Glad to see that the McCaskeys didn't just play the Cutler injury card and let Angelo stay. When your QB is injured, a dropoff can be expected, but the Bears failed so miserably, someone had to pay. Just like in Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Wonder if Phillips was canned as well........ George McCaskey......a new Rocky Wirtz........ I think Lovie does a nice job would liek ot remove all personnel decisions from him I think it was Martz(Lovie) v Angelo wiht Angelo having no leg to stand on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Are the bears going to hire bill polian and a fisher? Or are they going after cowher? Would love stay?

I think Lovie gets a bad rap and is still a pretty solid coach, but Fisher/Cowher are two all-time greats. Wonder if Cowher would want to be the GM?

Drool....Bears can't afford that though since it would also mean paying Lovie for two years. I would take one of them though easy right now as GM.

MexSoxFan#1 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 QUOTE (knightni @ Jan 2, 2012 -> 07:10 PM) It hurts that he didn't get 5,000 yards. I think that the hype is still enough that he will get it - it just won't be as unanimous as previously thought. Rodgers 45% Brees 35% Brady 15% Tebow 5% (that's the ESPN contingent) I would love to know who voted for Tebow if there are any MVP votes for him so we can go out and beat him (them?) with sticks.

HuskyCaucasian Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hub is reporting on The Score that Irsay went to Bill Polian and told him to fire his son (there were people revolting inside the organization against Chris), and Bill refused, so they both got fired. Hub said the Bears should call Bill Polian right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
