i wanted gase to get the gig when pace interviewed him and i was pissed when they went with fox as hc instead.
we could have had gase as HC and still have fangio as DC, but no, we got fucking fox.

Why are you thinking that Fangio would have been the DC if Gase was HC? Fox would have probably ended up with him somewhere else. Being awful sure about that. Hell, I don't think Gase would be doing much better right now with the way this team is looking. I don't know if any coach would be winning with the lack of depth we have

Yep this. In fact when Gase all but had the 49ers job, the dipshits in charge there balked at the idea and wanted to promote Tomsula to DC. It was a Gase/Fangio partnership from the beginning.

I think some of the reasoning was the fact that we were coming over a terrible offensive minded coach in T-Dog. Bears wanted to change up the mentality and get back to "Monsters of the Midway" so they went with an experienced Defensive coach over hiring Gase who was a young offensive coach.

Once again, this just points out how utterly incompetent the McCaskey's and Phillips are as personnel people
Look, hiring Gase as the head coach was fine in hindsight but in no way likely. He really didn't distinguish himself as OC in his one year with the Bears other than controlling Cutler. The big problem was the decision about hiring Fox. I said it at the time because the fit with Pace just didn't make sense to me from the beginning.What the McCaskeys should do is to hire Tom Coughlin as their President of football operations and have him evaluate Pace and if he passes muster, they should hire a new head coach. With a real football guy in charge, they would have a chance to get back to respectability because of their likely draft position and salary cap situation.
