HeGone33 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 04:19 PM) Alex is a free agent at the end of this season. He had a great season this year and won us some huge games. Harbaugh has a lot of faith in him He recently said he wants him back next year as well. If anyone has watched him the last 5 years, and watched him this year, they will note that he was a completely differen't QB this year. He's making strides, I'd like to have him back as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOXOBAMA Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 This is the most childish fight I've ever seen on this board. I really don't know why you guys are fighting as our teams don't play in the same division and no real rivalry. Both teams are historically great, Bears floundered this year and the the 49ers excel. Bears have been better over the past decade, but haven't been a model franchise. Both suck at drafting QBs like most of the NFL. Now can it stop? I've no beef with the Bears. My cousin plays for them. My debate is with the fans who think the 49ers doesn't have a shot at beating the Saints or Packers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bears' system is just f***ed. I agree, we need to pick the Green Bay FO's brain...just because you play in crappy weather doesn't mean we have to rely on a dominant D, running game, ST and a mediocre passing game to win, it's not the 40's anymore.Until we change that mentallity, we'll keep coming up short.

It's with the fans who jump down peoples throats with Superbowl chants when their team is on a two game winning streak......you give a little heat back and boom! The Niners have had a great year, but as I've said before on here I know they won't end up winning what matters most..a ring.......That statement right there isn't something 90% of Bears fans would be able to make when their team is heading to the playoffs.

Most Bears fans are also idiots. But not the ones on this board, so I don't understand why we're firing shots because people said they don't believe the 49ers could be the Packers. The Packers are really good. That's not an indictment of the 49ers. The fact of the matter is we won't really know until the game happens, if both teams make it that far.

LittleHurt05 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 04:17 PM) anyone listening this? The press conference? I listened. Mostly your typical BS you would expect. Good to hear that money wasn't a factor in firing Angelo and won't affect the future hire. I was nnoyed that they wouldn't delve into what Angelo did wrong "out of respect" for him. All they kept saying was that they need to close the talent gap between them & the rest of the division, which is obviously true. I would have liked to hear their exact criticism of Angelo, also how much the Cutler injury played a part in his firing. I am a fan of Lovie as a coach, but holding onto him worries me a little, because some GMs may not want to take the job if they can't bring in their own coach.

Pretty sure the talent gap was referring to what he did wrong. But if you want a good GM you'd probably be best served not airing the dirty laundry of the previous person.

MexSoxFan#1 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The first order of business for our next GM is PROTECT our franchise QB with quality OLineman (first and foremost), find a #1 WR through free agency and start finding defensive replacements for our aging D through the draft. Don't get cheap on us now, McCaskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovie has shown a willingness to have his offense run in a multitude of different ways...the only way I see this being a problem is if they want to hire a defense-oriented GM who dislikes the Tampa-2 style of defense that the Bears play (although I am not really even sure how much of that we play anymore). I'd like to see an offensive-minded GM brought in that isn't going to Holmgren us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
