Pace has come under more fire this week than I thought he would. I didn't honestly expect his job to be in jeapardy (and I don't think it is). But I am curious. Do you want to see Ryan Pace fired at the end of this season?

"It has been a fait accompli for weeks that John Fox’s days in Lake Forest are numbered with the 62-year-old head coach almost certain to be dismissed in the weeks ahead. But should the changes at Halas Hall stop there? More specifically, how should the evaluation of general manager Ryan Pace be contextualized as another season plummets to familiar depths of despondency?"
Dan Wiederer: You heard me say it Sunday afternoon, Rich. This latest collapse was an “everything’s on the table” defeat. A home loss to a 1-10 team? With the opposing quarterback, Jimmy Garoppolo, making his first start in a new system just 4½ weeks after joining the team? With the offense mustering only seven points on seven possessions against a below-average defense? With the “give-a-damn” factor seeming to dip?
My goodness. If the powers that be at Halas Hall didn’t spend Sunday night and all of Monday taking a look at every possible change — players, coaches, front office decision-makers, team executives — then the unusual stagnancy and complacency inside that building is even worse than we thought.
