As a Bears fan I hope you fire both of them.  You'll likely regret it.

Not one bit.

Ok, dork.

Alright, let's go!

[HutchwasClutch]

Ok, dork.

Really, not a "sick burn" as you like to say? I'm hurt. 

[GB Warrior]

I will say I have no idea who is out there worth hiring. And I absolutely subscribe that your best path to success is an offensive HC. It's so much harder to sustain success without it - your OC is constantly a flight risk if things go well.

Not meant to be a burn.

If you don't think the Bears had something to do with going out and taking it I'm not really sure what to say.  They've been doing it all season.

As a Bears fan I'm clearly not accustomed to success.  Nor would I have the insight into the frustrations that might exist with LaFleur.   

I just get the feeling that if they move on the might regret it.

The packers should absolutely fire lafleur.

The bears are the most wild team I've ever seen continue to stumble into wins based on the coaching decisions from the other side.

Yall drugging the water at the hotels? @Dish

I'm not saying you don't. But who is the hot shot candidate you're getting to replace him.

If LaFleur just reaches a competent level of coaching that 2nd half, Packers win comfortably.  Maybe not a blowout. 

LaFleur was so horrendous, the Packers got two turnovers and had no giveaways, and still managed this epic meltdown in only one half.  That's not easy to do.

This is the most wojo level of thinking I've seen!

The NFL doesn't work that way. The Packers have a window. I don't think MLF is the guy to maximize it. But hiring Harbaugh isn't getting it done. Who calls the plays?

John Harbaugh in a coma for starters.  My God, are you serious?  You don't need a hot shot. Find competence and you've improved already.  The world got to witness tonight what a joke the little flower is and what a choke artist he is.

My guy, how are you repeating 7 years of nonsense the main board here faced? Lafluer sucks, next man up.

This sounds like me telling Bears fans they'd regret moving on from Jay Cutler...and Trubisky...and Fields...

Monken calls the plays if he doesn't get a HC gig this cycle. And that would be an upgrade for the Packers.

Thought I would be waking up to the news of LaFluer fired...

I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't done until Monday. I'm sure they don't want a rash decision, especially having a new President.

I also assume they will want to make sure they can get their target. You can certainly do a lot worse than Lafleur.

There's a world in which there's a trade market for MLF. A bag of kicking tees probably, but still. 

Atlanta with their new leadership. Miami with theirs.

In the three seasons pre-Monken, Baltimore averaged 22.4 points per game. In the last three, they averaged 27.9.
About a third of NFL games are decided by 5 points or less, so a five-point jump is a pretty big deal.
I won't list all the stats, but the Ravens team offense is up in every offensive category since Monken took over.

[MuggsyB]

As a Bears fan I decided to listen to Hamp and OB for the first time im awhile. They seemed pretty adamant that MLF was terrible in the 2H, in particular his play calls of running up the middle.  I don't follow football very closely but I tend to agree with them.   The first three possessions in the 2H for GB were pretty inexplicable.  I wouldn't be surprised if MLF is shown the door. 

As for the Bears, I have no idea how they have done it but you have to give them credit for resiliency.  I think their O-Line is much, much, better than year's past.  It looks like Seattle is the best in the NFC but maybe the Pope and somebody up there is helping the Bears?   It's beyond belief that was their 1st playoff win since 2010.

If fired, LaFleur will be unemployed for about 8 seconds. He probably would get one of the open head-coaching jobs. If not, he certainly will be an OC next season.

Unless he wants a paid vacation for a year. I don't know what's in his head.

Yes, facing an 8-man box and press coverage, MLF repeatedly called for runs into the teeth of the defense. I don't know, I guess he figured it would take 40 seconds off the clock each time.
