What would be your resolution? If you were GM, I mean.

To a team that doesn't hustle? Seems like a coach issue. I'm sure you can explain how it's a positive that the Bears leave live balls on the turf and let DBs pick up huge yardage on picks.

No solutions from the board GM? You're not inspiring confidence in those that had faith in you. I was really starting to buy in to the whole idea.

Whose spot did you want to give him?

I would go with Bowman before Jennings was signed, or Moore's at Nickel after. Then again, the argument could be made that the Bears would've never signed Jennings if Lovie didn't inexplicably bench Graham for Bowman in the first place. Come on couch GM, you should already know this.

I guess Lovie called Baltimore and told them not to play Graham until their starters got hurt.

They probably had little to go on since Lovie never played him.

The one doghouse incident I had a problem with was DJ Moore, who appeared to get benched for the crime of being honest about Cutler.

Him playing like dogshit at the time didn't help his case much either.

I understand it's trendy, but this whole "camp counselor" thing is getting out of hand. Trestman seems a lot more involved in clips I've seen of practices and OTA's than Lovie ever seemed in clips or watching him live at training camp.

To be fair, Lovie delegated the micromanaging to his coordinators and positional coaches whereas Trestman is in effect an OC with a figurehead filling the position... he better be more hands on.

Lovie reminded me of my dads discipline style- When I was fucking around or being stupid, I just got a glare that promised swift corrective action if I didn't stop the fuckery... which led to an immidiate cease of said fuckery.

Trestman reminds me of my moms discipline style... coming over and asking me to stop doing what i was doing, and explaining why i shouldn't be doing it. so I would stop fucking off until she wasn't looking anymore, because I knew I could get a few strikes before I was out.

Considering there have been been multiple NFL players who have said Trestman's style is more than capable of working, I'll trust them over some radio host and you.

You think Tony Dungy ruled with an iron fist?

Poor choice.
