Maybe the Bears can pick up Norv for OC once Martz is gone.”

Actually I’m kinda hoping the same thing. Fellow Coryell disciple (not an entirely brand new philosophy) that may actually be open to new and wonderous things.

Like audibles.

I don’t think it would hurt Jay Cutlers development. I believe that would depend on who the new Offensive coordinator would be.
So if it were say, Mike Tice , I don’t think he would miss a beat..

If it’s true, Jay Cutler will have something to look forward to next season.

Is this the next place Roy Williams will underperform and undertip?

Sweet. As a Wildcats fan, I think it’ll be great to have our rival (ASU) hire a guy who hasn’t recruited HS players in years. Meanwhile, we’ll have Rich Rodriguez with a several-month head start.

I love the Bear fans who complain about him when their franchise hasn’t exactly excelled at offensive footballl, ever. Considering what Jerry Angelo’s terrible personnel moves have given him to work with, I think he was doing a pretty good job. I guess someone more along the lines of Ron Turner is a better “fit.”

if this is true then they need to make sure the next guy they hire runs an offense around the players he has,not ones he had 12 years ago. somebody who does not ask his backup to deviate from a formula that won the bears 5 in a row. someone said Norv Turner and that would be good only if he promises not to bring his brother’s offense with him!

I really think his offensive style would work at the college level, and the QB’s wouldn’t get blasted every couple throws.

“Martz is smart enough to realize that the wheels have come off this runaway train known as Duh Bears.

Lovie Smith still believes his number one priority each season is to beat the Packers. Well, come Christmas Day, CHI is about to lose to GB for the 4th time in calendar year 2011.

Cutler is not elite, Forte and Knox are not happy, and Hester is still one-dimensional. This team will be fighting Minnesota to the cellar for the next 3-4 years.

Good luck in AZ Mr. Martz. Be glad you made it out of this ghetto cesspool (Chicago) alive.”

—————–

Lovie said that to appease the masses, get real. It was a speech for the meat heads.

No shame in losing to GB. It’s just sports, not life and death. Let’s play the games first. The last team GB wants to face in the playoffs is the Bear’s, their words, not mine.

I’ll take Cutler over about 90% of the QBs in this league, especially if you get him NFL talent on the line and at wr.

Players not happy, boo hoo. That’s life in pro sports.

Hester is one dimensional? That’s like same Jim Brown was one dimensional, but that one dimension was fantastic. For that matter, Brady, Brees, and Rodgers, are one dimensional too.

If you still live in Chicago, as suggests, then leave. It’s obviously too difficult for you.

Mike Martz is the best OC and quite possibly the best offensive mind in professional football. The Bears “fans” who don’t see that… scratch it, being Bears fans is insult enough.

Go Lions! Go Badgers!

At least we wasted draft picks on developmental QB’s he wanted that he apparently doesn’t want to stay and watch develop! Figured he was looking for a college HC job after he didn’t extend his contract with the Bears.

Well if you are going to throw out rumors without hard facts, Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has heard two separate rumors that Bill Cowher is interested in the Chargers job.

Frist to say
It would be great to see his work at the collage level, would it work without getting the QB kill.

Martz’s biggest claim to fame is getting his QB killed on the field. I’m sure Bears fans everywhere will rejoice when he is no longer in Chicago.

As a Bears fan i can only pray he gets the job.
