Bears & NFL Talk LXII: Down goes the Rams!

[HawksBeerFan]

It depends on how hell bent he is on being a head coach. I know the Bears can be cheap but they could easily pay him to try and get him to stay.

What options will be out there this offseason?

Vic is already the highest paid DC in the NFL

Really hope they can find a way to retain Vic but it seems less and less likely

I am skeptical Vic Fangio gets a head coaching gig. He is a 60 year old DC. SF picked Jim Tomsula over Vic Fangio. He'll get interviews ... but I think his time for HC has passed.

It's about finding the new offensive YOUNG minds nowadays. Nagy, Reich, and even Shurmur had their successes this year. Willis and Patricia have been disasters. Vrabel ... has done relatively well.

Green Bay, Denver, Jets, Tampa, Carolina, Cleveland, Cincy ... almost all these teams are looking for offensive minds. Perhaps Cincy, Denver, and Carolina might consider defensive minds. That said, the current coaches for those teams are all defensive minded coaches.

Then you promise to keep him that way.

Money is not the issue. Vic wants a HC gig. He wanted one last year. It's more a question if a NFL team wants him.

You missed my other post.

My point was the Bears aren't being "cheap" with him as is

They have been historically which was my point.

Well, your point is not a good one. So...

Where do Nagy rank? Fox was in the bottom 1/3 of the NFL at 4.25 per.

So no my point was not a bad one. 1 coach out of years of history does not prove a point to be bad.

Power struggle? Didn't Mark Murphy always have the power?

Who knows. But Gruden and McKenzie did not get along at all. Honestly, he got a raw deal. He'll be in someone's front office soon.

From the day Gruden got that deal McKenzie was a dead man walking.

Not really

His drafting has been mostly god awful and is major reason the Raiders are devoid of talent

I'm surprised he has not got a chance, after this season some team is going to probably make him an offer. He has interviewed but IMO does not come across well.

Teams are also focused on these dynamic offensive play callers so defensive guys are being passed over. I've been a huge Vic fan since the Bears signed him so it will be tough to replace him.

How about the job the Oline did against donald and co last night? Pretty damn good. Trubiskys whole hot & cold act is pretty scary. And could get us knocked out of the playoffs early if he doesnt figure out his consistency.

Other than Gruden just getting rid of everyone...

I mentioned it last night. Daniels was really good (he had support) and the scheme was really solid.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Bears really need to put the Packers out of misery this weekend

Yup. Daniels will be a key part of our line for a while hopefully. Man is he good

My bad. For some reason, I thought McKenzie was with the Packers.

 

[piteus]

He's actually a critical part of our defense. Slot corners are extremely valuable nowadays. Let's hope he's only out for the regular season. To be ruled out of the game almost immediately after the injury is not good.

Injuries has always been the issue with Bryce. It will probably prevent him from getting the big contract.

Is LeBlount (the former dimeback) still out there?
