Jake Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Tucker has been the best performing coach this season. Doesn't say much, but it's true. The easy thing to do here is fire DeCamillis. He's the most deserving, it poses the least risk, and satisfies the grumpy fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at that game, with about four layers on and complete ski gear, tailgating then sitting in that storm and suddenly it's 35-0 at halftime.

Today sucked, but I've been happy with the defensive performance this year. Special teams has obviously sucked, but the offense is problem #1. It just seems like the NFL figured Trestman out over the offseason and he can't adapt. What happened to all the great plays and long passes from last year?

Kyyle23 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Nothing has been released officially yet, but word is out for what we pretty much knew already: Houston done for the year.

bmags Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 You never see players pull up like that and it be best case scenario. Oh well, it was a fitting end point to the Bears season. Best part about Bears fandom right now is you cannot criticize the defense without being on #teamcutler, you cannot criticize Cutler and the offense without being #teamtucker even though all deserved blame. I still think that given the greater resources on offense, that they cannot do a plan like San Diego where they aim to just have long drawn out drives against bad defenses like GB/Pats/Carolina(at the time) is the much much more disappointing issue this season.

Last week I would agree with this. After yesterday, i think it is unanimous that the entire dumpster is on fire With Jay, for me he has regressed to the absolute worst Jay that we could have possibly imagined. Locking on targets, forgetting that anyone but Marshall is on the field, not protecting the ball, interceptions. With the Tucker defense, it has gotten to the point where it is obvious that Tucker feels that vanilla is the best approach. There is absolutely no creativity, no ability to change things midstream, he doesnt try and confuse the offense. And with this sort of approach, Qbs just look for windows and pick it apart. And with them trying to force Shea and DJ into the lineup, there are gaping holes in the middle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 10:12 AM) Williams is horrible. I have said it for a few weeks but I can't fathom who is making the decision to start him. He is brutal but the whole team is. At this point, what is best for the Bears is a total collapse and its sad that I say that because what would have been acceptable / okay with a losing record would have been a great offense with a bad defense (at least you can try to address that). But we have a lot of guys making big bucks on the offensive side of the ball that aren't producing. Special teams is just a joke too. At this point, if the season ended today, I would be beyond upset if Trestman kept his job. He has time to save it but it is going to take a lot and it starts this Sunday @ Green Bay.

Chisoxfn Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 10:16 AM) I think it is time Phil Emery gets looked at. This defense is pathetic. And his line that Cutler was elite because of his winning percentage......Rex Grossman has the same career winning percentage. I am with you. At this point, I think an entire change in culture is necessary in Chicago and it starts and ends with Jim Harbaugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 10:32 AM) Remember when we were opening up the playbook this year? I feel like we run 10 plays total. It is becoming more an more evident that with some film, Trestman isn't very smart. We run an extremely vanilla offense and every team in the league knows what is coming.

Chisoxfn Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 10:57 AM) Supposing you want to dump Trestman at season's end, what top offensive mind will want to come deal with Cutler at this point? It doesn't matter. You let whomever comes her cut Jay or just stick him as a backup and you let them know that he is not our QB. If we lost because of our defense fine, but he is part of the problem. Emery and Trestman have made a complete and utter mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 11:31 AM) The bummer is that Trestman will lose his job before Cutler. I think Trestman et al. should feel some heat, but if I were the coach I'd feel pissed that I couldn't change my most important position to save my career. His job is in Cutler's hands and those are some uncertain hands. He could but he apparently was on board with the long extension. I am sorry but Jay should not be a Bear next year.

Cutler and Marshall are freaking losers. Nuff said. I can't believe I was duped by it. Get them away from this franchise and fast. I don't want them tainting Jeffrey who we appear to have forgotten is a very good player. I can't even speak about how pathetic of shape this franchise is in.

Chisoxfn Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 26, 2014 -> 02:09 PM) I don't know, the former NFLers in Jiggetts, Miller, Buffone and OB, thought the scheme for Gronk was awful. In fact, Buffone said TE have been killing the Bears all season, and they don't seem to be mixing it up to try and change it. I am just relaying what they said. I am certainly not a football technician. Yeah. I can say we have personell issues, which we do at LB, but that doesn't ignore the fact that we continue to get outcoached. We are even getting crushed at Trestman's specialty which is why he has to be a fall guy too. All three phases...below average, two of which are as far as I'm concerned, bottom 5 in this league.

They have the rest of the season to convince me otherwise. I totally get what you're saying, but I do want to stress that benching Cutler and trying a "young QB" is a recipe for 2 years of losing, even if they pull off a high enough draft pick to find their ideal QB this year. It may not show up on the offense but it'll show up somewhere, depth/injuries, weakness on the defensive starters, etc. You're getting a smaller version of that this year based on having Cutler's payroll on the roster AND having $10 million in dead space from finishing Peppers. Teams that lose that large of a fraction of their cap are just doomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
