Poll: New Chicago Bears GM Phil Emery
This poll asks one simple question; Did you like the Phil Emery hire? We're not asking if you think he'll do a good job, or if you think he'll be a Jerry Angelo clone. Just if you liked the hire? We know it's impossible to determine if he'll be a good GM before he's made any significant moves,...
The Mike Tice Promotion is Doomed to Fail
That's right, I said doomed. But before you furiously type out some rant-like rebuttal in the comments section, read through my reasoning behind this. And no, it has nothing to do with me disliking Tice as the Bears' offensive coordinator. To err is human; to jump, divine. Tice's promotion to OC...
Bears GM Candidates: the Draft Value System Revisited
Last week, I set out to create an objective way to measure the draft success of the Bears' GM candidates. Thanks to the helpful feedback from WCGers, I have made some refinements to my system: the numbers now make a lot more sense than they did the last time around. For your consideration, here...
I have one reason the Bears should say No to Tim Ruskell
Tim Ruskell was a Jerry Angelo hire. Not just a hire, but he was brought in ("allegedly")* to take over when Angelo stepped down. The two share a general managing philosophy, and if Angelo was fired because the Bears wanted the franchise to go in a different direction, they why the hell would...
Bears GM Candidates by the Numbers
Last week, I started out my article by bemoaning the complete lack of statistics to measure GM performance. This whine, however, was followed by an article almost completely lacking in any numbers of its own. To remedy this situation, I have spent the last couple of days converting the draft...
Know Your Chicago Bears GM Prospects
Out with the old, and in with the... who? Lots of names have already started to circulate on who the Bears might pick as their new general manager. For all the ink that gets spilled about potential draft picks and future free agents, however, there is surprisingly little written about the people...
The Chicago Bears fire Jerry Angelo (overflow thread)
Now that Jerry Angelo is no longer employed by the Chicago Bears, we'd like to know who you think should be the next GM. Should they stay in house? Should they let Lovie buy all the groceries? Bill Polian was just relieved of his Colts duties... or another big name candidate perhaps? Vote in...
The Chicago Bears should start Nathan Enderle now
The Bears are sitting at 7-7 with the slimmest of chances at a wildcard spot. Even Chicago head coach Lovie Smith said the top priority right now is winning their 8th game. Even if the Bears win out, they'd need help from too many other teams to get them in the playoff tournament. I don't care...
All-Underrated Team: Left Guard - Chris Williams
What is with this Bizarro World stuff going on right now? Last night the Bears hold the Philadelphia Eagles sackless, and now today a member of their offensive line is receiving some positive press. The Shutdown Corner blog on Yahoo Sports has named their Halfway Point Al-Underrated Team, and a...
Thoughts From NFL Week 7: Chicago Bears and beyond
The 7th Sunday of the NFL season is history, and is there a better story going on right now than Timmy? I could go on and on about Tebowmania, but that may alienate some of the regular readers around these parts, so I'll quell my urges and limit my post to a single Tim Tebow thought. There was...
