    I don't see any coaches leaving. Just my opinion. Really looking forward to next year though

    do you think they can win anything with cutler? I do not.

    The Bears have far bigger concerns IMO than QB. That said, if an opportunity presents itself in the draft, I think they need to look at younger blood. The upcoming QB draft class is pretty lacking next year too.
    Cutler had a solid season. Another year in the system can only help. Keep in mind most of the season he was playing decent ball with a group of receivers who wouldn't be playing on most teams and with a o-line that had injuries and protection issues. The three picks will stand out on the box score today, but few people will talk about 5 starting targets not playing today.
    The QB and the team as a whole played beyond my expectations this year...especially with the injuries and personnel lining up each week.

    Gase.

    What do you guys think of him? Seems to have worked wonders for Cutler...

    He was awesome this year. Always had a good game plan coming in to every game. Bears had injuries all over their offense this season and Cutler still had his best year as a Bear. I think he'll be a very good head coach.

    What he said ^.
    Gase will no doubt land a HC gig for next year and whoever gets him will be more than happy. The guy is young, but he's smart and well respected by his team and coaching staff. He's a smart guy who tailors the offensive approach to the team he's playing and to what guys he can put on the field. It's too bad the Bears are going to lose him because I think every Bear fan wanted to see what he could do with a healthy roster. Even with the Bears so banged up all season, he was able to play rookies and guys who wouldn't have jobs on other teams and still be competitive during most games.

    Thoughts on Lovie Smith in general?

    He was a solid coach here for a long time. Players absolutely loved him and played hard for him. His biggest problem was that he could never find a good offensive coordinator. The defense was always good with him here and it was elite for a few years there and carried them to a Super Bowl (fucking Rex Grossman...I'll never get over that loss). But his inability to hire a competent offensive coordinator is ultimately what got him fired here.

    I don't know what the hell happened in Tampa. Sounds like they were higher on the OC down there and didn't want to lose him so they just canned Lovie. Are the Giants looking at him?

    Not sure. Some talk in the media that they really liked him before they hired Coughlin and that they should take another look, but nothing confirmed. The more I think about it though, the more I like it. Sounds like what they need, especially if they can keep McAdoo.

    Yeah, sounds like the OC is getting the job.

    That was awesome. Really wish I was old enough to remember and enjoy that team. I was only 3 when they won it. My brother was born the night the Bears won the super bowl....apparently my whole family was at the hospital and everyone was bombed. I'm sure that was quite a scene.

    Sad to see #22 go. Class act and a hell of a player!

    Yeah. Sucks to see him go. Had a great career here, but RB is actually one of the positions that the Bears have decent depth at with Langford and Carey so it does make sense.

    Bushrod gone now too. Not surprising since Leno took over at LT last year and Bushrod made a lot of money. Now it's time to see what they do with Jeffrey......hopefully they can work out a long term deal, but I think they will franchise him if they have to. I really want to see him and White on the field together.

    Agreed. While it sucks to see a good player leave, the Bears won't be losing much in the end anyways. Langford and Carey should be able to fill in nicely.
