My favorite teams
That is the Bears way. They hire scrub coaches that will work for cheap. They got lucky with Lovie, and let him go after a winning season. Of course, instead of going with Arians who wanted the job, the front office went cheap with nerd boy Trestman. That caused Marinelli to leave, and left us with Mel Tucker.
The last coach the Bears spent money on was Wannstedt, and we know how well that turned out.
The media loves to go on and on about our terrible luck with QBs, but we're not that great with head coaches either.
Well my problem with the Bears is they seem to have no parameters for hiring a HC. Right they stumbled onto Smith and Ditka for that matter. There never seems to be a plan.
For me, I'd want a HC candidate with experience and or a proven success i.e. a winning background, proven track record with Qb's, offensive success. Also a guy who will adjust his scheme to the existing talent.
For me, I would've also looked at players turned coach from the '85 Bears. I'd never cut ties with winners.
