After hearing the press conference with new Bears head coach Marc Trestman, did you feel refreshed? To finally hear a coach for the Chicago Bears not shove bullshit in our faces, did it seem awesome? At least in my lifetime, I’ve never seen anything like this. I’ve never heard a coach for the Bears be forward by saying “We have a sense of urgency to win”. Did Lovie Smith ever mention that there was a sense of urgency to win? The answer is no. Our good friend Chucky was the one who noted that Lovie always told the media that some games weren’t “must win” but after it was too late, then it was all of a sudden that way.
From what I heard, Trestman also said that his priority would be to protect Jay Cutler. Basically, he’s implying that he is aware that the offensive line sucks and that he wants a new line that can actually protect Cutler so he can have more than two seconds to run the ball. Anybody else agree with that too?
Before all of this, it was “we have a good football team” and “we like the players we have now”. In addition to all of this, the entire Lovie regime of assistant coaches are gone. I was fine with Marinelli staying but he decided to leave on his own terms. You see Bears fans? This is how franchises build teams that win a Super Bowl. The Packers let Favre go and they won the Super Bowl a few years later with Rodgers. The Steelers put in Ben Rapistberger after Tommy Maddox started to suck and they have won two Super Bowls in three chances since 2006.
Listening to Emery and Trestman can make anybody jump on board with what they do and as a Bears fan, I am finally feeling good about the future of this team.

One thing I didn’t hear, for which I am happy about, was that his first priority was to beat Green Bay. Remember that line when Lovie was first hired? Screw that bullshit. I wouldn’t care if the Bears went 14-2, both losses against Green Bay, they go on to win the Super Bowl. Your number one priority should be that. You will get there by protecting the QB, like Trestman stated. I thought that his press conference was a real example of substance over superficial bullshit.
I did find it quite refreshing Fro. I’m liking the Bears chances more and more each day.

Agreed.
Also if he can have the same turn around in sacks with this team as with the CFL we will be in very good shape.
Question: If Te’o drops are way because of the scandal, do we pick him up?

Trestman wasn’t my top choice-but he seems all right. He was evasive and vague at times-but he didn’t lie to us or insult our intelligence. We shall see. He’s not going to be a yeller and screamer ala Ditka. However, he is very enthusiastic as opposed to Smith, who always seemed like he was on painkillers or something.
I am skeptical about Matt Cavanagh as Cutler’s new coach-he has been coaching Sanchez down to Buttfumble the past 4 years in New York. Bears wanted to keep Marinelli, Not a massive Marinelli fan, but it’s not a good sign when you can’t keep the people you want even though they don’t have a better job lined up.

I can’t believe how some people were actually wanting Singletary as head coach. Goes to show the war on drugs has been a total flop. Nemo…that wasn’t painkillers he was on. That’s just the way he was. I’m surprised somebody didn’t start shoveling dirt on him, because he’s been in a fucking coma for the last 9 years. Goddamn, how the hell did we survive that?

Once upon a time I enjoyed listening to Skip Bayless…not so much anymore.
January 18, 2013 at 6:03 pm
Bayless should just keep his mouth shut. That way nobody will hear how damned stupid he is.
January 18, 2013 at 9:47 pm
Hey Genre,
Thanks for making me waste almost seven minutes of my time. I know I’ll never get that back!
January 18, 2013 at 11:17 pm
sorry Fro…is it me…or has Skip Bayless become a complete whack job/asshole? baaaaaaaaah
January 19, 2013 at 12:09 am
Skip Bayless is just an idiotic sports writer. Everything he says is absurd and for the most part, false. The issue with this is that it gets worse as time goes on. This guy makes Yeti look like a genius.

Scott, Skip Clueless has been a deranged whack job asshole for a LONG time!

I just have to throw this out right now. Will somebody please tell Ray Lewis to SHUT THE FUCK UP! I am so goddamned sick and tired of his retarded, inarticulate ramblings that I hope somebody fucking breaks this idiot in half. Ray, your God doesn’t care about football. Didn’t you get the memo? He’s got more important shit to think about, you big dumb bastard. Fuck, I don’t even want watch the telcast anymore because of all the NFL “experts” fawning all over your big, dumb ass.
The best thing that could happen is some freak accident where you break your leg and can’t play. Shut the fuck up and go away, asshole.
Hell of a time for New England to shit the fucking bed.
January 21, 2013 at 10:17 am
New England played with zero fire…Brady can’t do it all by himself. I know people are slamming Welker (again) for the dropped pass…but he was CLOCKED on the previous play as I recall…
I’m tired of athletes – and entertainers – praising their Gods. STFU is right.
The Harbaugh vs. Harbaugh angle is way more interesting…
January 21, 2013 at 10:52 am
Genre…it will be, if they don’t fuck up and focus too much attention on the that idiot Lewis.

The only thing I heard, was that he was going to get rid of all the black coaches. Then I figured he must be jewish and that he would hire a minority quota as a dc cause that’s what they are good at. Did you hear that to?
