So our HC has had all of his coordinators fired for performance and conduct reasons, yet is able to stay on and hire another set of coordinators? Doesn’t make any sense to me

it doesn't make any sense. the defense did play better as the season went on but they had one of the easiest schedules... They were playing well against Washington, Carolina, atlanta, etc. They played like absolute garbage against green bay, the chiefs, the chargers... You know, the teams with decent qbs.

I really hope they know what they're doing because not going after harbaugh or one of the other half dozen great candidates is crazy to me

When we played decent QBs, we got blown out. Getting diced up by GB should have shown us that whatever progress we thought was made was actually just incremental. A lot of talk shows are saying that we’re guaranteed a top 5 defense next season, but unless we got another edge and a good DC I don’t see us being elite, probably just top 15/10.

It’s the bears we have no clue what we’re doing. I do have hope in Poles, but the Flus decision definitely makes me doubt him a little.

What do you think we’ll do at OC and QB?

I think it's a no brainer to draft a qb. I'm guessing, but i think any talk from poles or flus about keeping all options open etc is just to maximize trade value for fields. I just don't see a way the bears can run it back with fields after 3 seasons of bottom 7 qb play in the league, especially with the #1 pick.

As for OC... No idea there.

Yeah I agree with you on the QB. I do think fields has the talent to be a good starter in this league but it won’t happen with the bears. For OC, I’m just hoping it’s an ambitious hire not some mediocre cheap guy like the bears are used to
