Former Bears player Blake Costanzo says coach Marc Trestman has made team ‘soft’ 

Former Bears linebacker Blake Costanzo took a shot at his former coach, Marc Trestman, after the Bears’ loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

“(Trestman) has made the Bears soft,” he Tweeted. “I took pride in wearing that jersey. Ditka, Urlacher, Briggs. Unreal man. No respect.”



Trestman has to get much tougher on his underachieving players  

Three questions came to mind Sunday as the mushroom cloud settled over Soldier Field and refused to budge.

Do you want Marc Trestman running the Bears? Do you want Brandon Marshall running the Bears’ locker room? Do you want Jay Cutler run out of town?



Trestman cuts down on Cutler’s decision-making 


Halfway through the game Sunday against the Dolphins, the Bears decided that less of Jay Cutler was a good thing.

Matt Forte ran the ball only two times in the first half in part, coach Marc Trestman said Monday, because four other plays were turned into passes by Cutler.





Dan Hampton says Marc Trestman runs Bears like a daycare 



Dan Hampton speaks like he played—all out.

Appearing on “Kap & Haugh” on 87.7-FM and Comcast SportsNet simulcast, the Bears Hall of Famer laid into coach Marc Trestman for his “fair” coaching style. Hampton took aim at Trestman’s policy of letting different players be captain each week.

“If you’re in a daycare, you might want to let everyone rotate being captains, because we all want to be fair,” Hampton said. “But this is the Chicago Bears. This is the NFL. The guys that the team votes as captains should be captains every week. Not a bunch of touchy-feely, we’re going to pass out juice boxes. Not, we’re going to let this guy be a captain. And, next week, we’re going to let that guy be a captain. That’s not the way it works.”



There are so many more but I stopped here.

I do enjoy watching the bares fall apart. it is even better than when the vickies do.
I could have hammer in ignorant BIL this past week by I have not said anything to him since the Bears-Packers game.

I found it funny when so many players have said there was no shouting or fighting in the locker room after the game but many writers heard it while on the other side of the closed doors. One of the players was on The SCORE yesterday and when asked about it said something to the effect of "To be honest, I didn't hear anything in the locker room." He was hesitating and stammering as he said it. He knew that no one would believe the lie and it stuck in his throat as his tried to say it.

The Packers rotate team captains and it seems to work for them just fine.

Cutler doesn't have the personality to do his own R-E-L-A-X line. Then come out and make it so.

I can't help but laugh at the irony that the minute the Bears get someone half decent at offense running their team with something resembling talent at QB along with a RB and a good trio of WRs+TE that their defense goes soft as taffy. If they run him out of town I'd be willing to place a lot of money on the franchise going back to some defensive minded coach who sets the franchise back in terms of offensive game planning with the old ground and pound, get off the bus running crap that's been out of date for 10 years (which I'm totally fine with!).

The Bears Woes? I remain in the corner that it starts and ends with Jay Cutler. Mentally soft as a rotten tomato and just doesn't seem like a guy that can lead.
