Bears 2015 Draft Discussion

[PenFoe]

Where can we find a guy who won't shit in a tub during the playoffs? That seems to be the most important thing.

I think Pete Carroll is the only name on that list.

I mean is any coach who loses playoff games a bad coach? That means every coach sucks except Pete Carroll who will eventually lose a playoff game.

Carroll lost to the Bears in 2010, but that's beside the point.

Ditka's season ended on Soldier Field turf in the playoffs 3 years in a row (86-88) and in 1991.  Cowher's Steelers lost 4 times at home in Conference title games.  Obviously these guys were good enough coaches to get their teams into the playoffs (well, in Ditka's case I'm not so sure how good he was to run rampant over a limp-dick short bus NFC Central with 4 eventual Hall of Famers on his roster but follow me here) but I point to the fact that they lost in spite of their earned advantages as proof that they're...oh I don't know...maybe a little overrated.

But my real beef is with these "character" coaches who have facial hair and who like to yell and fire up any town's meatball fanbase.  I'm automatically repelled by these asshats and though my instinctive opposition to these coaches is probably in reaction to the dumbass fanbase I think there's some validity to the assertion that they're simply Point A to Point B guys who burn out.  Bill Walsh, Bill Belichek, Chuck Noll and Tom Landry have all won multiple Super Bowls and none of those guys were known as yelling douchebags like this clown Cowher.

So I point to the fact that he loses big games to inure me against idiots.  I know how abhorrent you find the idea of measuring coaches by championships so I guess my only reply to you is I dunno go eat shit I don't fucking like Bill Cowher okay.

I don't care about Bill Cowher but I do enjoy watching you meatball

Even if you thought Bill Cowher was a fantastic coach (he wasn't, though he was a good coach) he hasn't coached in the NFL in 8 years. It's a pretty different league than the one he left, even if he's still been watching. 

He's not the answer at all. 

They should trade a 3rd round pick to get Harbaugh (assuming he doesn't go to Michigan) or they should tap one of the top coordinators out there. 

And by "out there" I mean, like..in the United States this time.

On a side note, I really hope Harbaugh doesn't take the Michigan job because the outpouring of asshurt from the local Wolverine contingent will be tremendous.

Too bad the Ohio State job isn't available.

*Makes mental note to punch CT and Fork in the face next I see them. Adds large tube of Desitin to shopping list.*

Looks like someone just uninvited himself from the Puckcast.

Pfft. Any time flannj wants to come on, he's welcome.

It doesn't matter what happens in the second half... let the meatball begin.

Sure seems like it would make more sense to start Fales, but considering no one in this organization knows fuck about anything, back to Cutler.

I assume you're missing Clausen's concussion in this response, but I still don't see why they'd go back to Cutler, even if Clausen isn't playing.

I did miss that, but yeah, you can't bench Cutler then throw him back out there regardless. Start Fales and sign Jordan Palmer to back him up for all I care.

You must have missed the exhilarating Jaguars-Titans Thursday night game last week, where Jordan Palmer was Jake Locker's Zach Mettenberger's Charlie Whitehurst's back-up.

I say start Fales, with Marc Trestman himself as the backup.
