He doesn't have much material.
Maybe Ernie really is his uncle.

Fox was the proverbial "rebound" girlfriend, not something long term but enough to get past the disaster you just left (Trestman/Emery).
Some organizations have chronic dysfunction. Some places, owners pick gm and coach, or have people not knowledge in the sport picking who runs the team.
Those teams are rarely successful...

Cubs fan said the same thing about Crain Kenney.As long as yesterday's win and the potential for 1 more doesn't ruin Pace's firing Monday in a couple more weeks, I don't care what ol Foxy has to say. See you on the flip side John.
We've long been fed the line that Pace was hired under the stipulation Fox would be the HC for him. I think it's about 50/50 that is how it went down. We don't know what happened back then, but I have a hard time believing a young GM wanted the archaic philosophy of John Fox to be running his team. That is why I think there is some truth to that rumor, which has been circulated since nearly day 1.
edit: I'll add. The Bears will continue to suck or be mediocre as long as George and Teddy are involved in GM related activities. George needs to take a step back, grow a set, and fire Teddy. Then disappear into the shadows and just watch from the luxury box. Let a football guy run the whole thing, not a bean counter piece of shit.

I am not understanding why Ryan Pace did not choose a coach. In every other Sport, that is what Managers do. I was not in Chicago at that time and many pardons if I am not knowing more.
That isn't true. Pace was hired before Fox was even fired in Denver.
He was a young first-time GM. Ownership decided to hire him only if he accepted the consultants "suggestion" for head coach.
The consultant eventually "suggested" Fox after he was fired in Denver.
Pace was named GM 1/8/15 and Fox was named head coach 1/16/15.
Still, I doubt Pace picked Fox with only 8 days of research...
The original shoopster was awful. You are like a bad cover band covering an awful band to begin with...You know what I say about shoopster-on-the-brain, rupert. It can't make you famous . . .
Didn't we beat the Steelers? Article needs to check their facts.
