Chicago Hires Mike Martz to Run the Teams Offense

The Bears have finally hired someone to run their offense, as reports are the team has inked former Rams coach Mike Martz to try and right the ship that was a disaster last season in Chicago. Lovie Smith used to be Mike Martz’s defensive coordinator when the latter was head coach of the St. Louis Rams. Now, according to [read more...]

Former Rams Coach Mike Martz to Talk to the Bears About Their OC Job

This is the potential candidate we have.  First he disses on Jay Cutler.  Then before the door even hits Ron Turner in the behind he expresses his interest in a position that’s not even open yet.  Then after the position becomes open, he waits….no call…he waits…no call.  Then he says he’s just ready to move on.  Now he’s at Hallas [read more...]

Bears Fans Need to Make Sure Not to Drink the Kool-Aid

Okay, I was over at ChicagoBears.com drinking the kool-aid today. I had to spit it out. I was checking out Larry Mayers question and answer piece and came across this question about the length of time it is taking to fill the coordinator positions (check out the entire Chalk Talk here). Larry Mayer – Senior Writer on ChicagoBears.com From the very beginning, [read more...]

A Somewhat Quiet Week in Bear Country

There is not a lot of activity going on in Bears Nation this week.  Aside from the devastating news of the passing of Gaines Adams, and the Bears interviewing Mike DeBord for the Tight Ends coaching position, not much else is happening. That is what is disturbing.  There is no long line of candidates for either of the coordinator positions that [read more...]

Bears Name Mike Tice New Offensive Coordinator

Five Predictable Outcomes from Bears Coach Lovie Smith’s Coaching Staff Makeover

I recently returned from a week-and-a-half-long roadtrip across the eastern half of the U.S. Spending 5 days traversing over 3,000 miles in a car gives a man a lot of time to ponder the important things in life…like the 2010 Chicago Bears coaching staff. Here are my 5 very predictable outcomes from the coaching staff cleansing at Halas Hall. 1.  [read more...]

Bears Won’t Be Worried About a QB Shuffle This Offseason

For years the Chicago Bears have been playing musical chairs.  There has been no consistency at the Quarterback position in general.  Let’s face it, 27 different quarterbacks have stood at center since Jim McMahon’s last hike as a Bear back in 1988.  22 Years, 27 Quarterbacks and ZERO Super Bowl Wins.  Hey, I didn’t get a chair! Now, Bear Nation finds [read more...]

Bears Fire Ron Turner as Offensive Coordinator

A poor season for the Bears on offense has cost a coordinator his job. The team on Tuesday canned offensive coordinator Ron Turner day after reports came out that coach Lovie Smith will retain his job. The team went 7-9 this season, and the offense with new QB Jay Cutler had its moments of struggle, and in the end, it [read more...]

Is Somebody Ready to Get Canned in the Windy City?

I am going to outline several scenarios of potential changes for the Bears organization following the dismal disappointment of the 2009 season.  I think it is inevitable that something is going to have to change.  What it is, no one can tell for sure yet. Did Ron Turner and Lovie Smith do enough at the finish line to keep their [read more...]
