I Think It's Official Now..............

I don't believe it has no impact just not a much as some feel it does and even the coaches aren't relying to heavily on that excuse because it flies completely in the face of that "next man up" theory Fox use to quote but has now dropped since he'd look even more foolish if he did.  Few stepped up.

If you and others believe as I do that we could have and even should have been 8-8 in 2015 but a couple of missed FG and a couple of late game defensive breakdowns lost us two more games then at least 8-8 this year should also have been attainable at the very least.  Many even forecast that while I was initially a game or two more optimistic.

So if we lost a couple more than that due to injury I'm sure we wouldn't be having some of the debates we are.  But that isn't what happened and I feel and others do as well there were at least two games lost by poor game and clock management by Fox.

It's also possible at least one of those earlier games might have been salvaged with a better running game and some in game adjustments that never came.  Once they knew Loggains had abandoned the run it was like shooting fish in a barrel for their pass rushers and blizters and we couldn't adjust and pick those up either. 

So I blame that on very poor pregame scheming and preparation which is what coaches do.  The players need that because in a sense they're somewhat like human robots who need to be programmed with a game plan each game and then reprogrammed as the game progresses.

That wasn't done and while it's not all on Fox in this case the shit runs uphill because he's in charge of all that and it didn't get done.  So now we sit on the verge of the only 13 loss season "WE'VE" had since the NFL went to 16 games but that's not such a big deal for Fox because he's lost 14 before.

Of course it did cost him his job and it should surely cost him his job again since he has the second worst HC record in Bears history but apparently it won't so I'm simply gonna ask to be excused from the optimists side of the board and stay on the realists side.  Frankly I don't see how he could do any worse so I guess you all have that going for you.

I wasn't even my quote but there, I fixed it.  So are we good now?  LOL

That's the thing, Goldman had a bum ankle did he need surgery? He hasn't had it from anything I've read, so how is a bad was it?  Fuller was basically a healthy scratch, how many more were like that? I'm betting at least 4 or 5 more. Hurt but not your normal IR issues. 

And then we hire Jim Harbaugh? I know it's probably not going to happen, but one can hope.
