Lovie Smith got a contract extension. What do you all think of him as a coach? I think he's pretty good. He seems to get the most out of his teams. The Bears have been limited by a lack of offensive talent during Lovie's tenure. The QB play has been dodgy, they haven't had any standout receivers, they didn't get a good RB till last year, and the O-line has been unstable and sometimes disastrous at the tackle position. Possibly they can put together a good offense with Cutler at QB and Martz as OC, but I'm not so sure.

In his first few years, it seemed like Lovie sort of had the Packers' number, but it has evened out since then. Lovie seems like an even-keeled sort of coach who has the respect of his players. So I think the organization probably did the right thing in giving him a couple more years.

I think the Bears are sort of over a barrel. Lovie has been pretty mediocre in his tenure. But he has done just enough at the right times to get extentions to his contract. A SB appearance in 2006 season and the CG this year.
It is like a player having a career year just before free agency.

Yeah, reward the guy for losing to their arch rivals on their own field for the game to go to the super bowl, which the winner receives the trophy named after Pappa Bear himself. God this was a great season.

Boy has it.

He went 3-1 against Sherman and started 3-1 against McCarthy. Since though he has been 2-5 including the NFC Championship Game. He is 1-4 against the Pack with Cutler at the helm.

That makes him 8-7 overall against the Pack.

Yeah. I do, too. They had an awful lot of lucky breaks this year and that kinda covered up the fact that they're a team on the decline. They were lucky to get as far as they did and it won't happen again soon.

Reminds me of the re upping of Chilly... and we all seen how that turned out.

Bears sold out for Cutler.. he had a career year and flamed out late.. being outplayed by a 3rd stringer in Caleb.

There aren't as many questions with Cutler as there were with Favre.. but there are plenty of question indeed.

They lack offensive talent on the edges.. they have an offensive line that was held together with tuck tape this year..

Their defense is their strength.. if they have any hope, their defense will have to carry them yet again. We shall see.

I like the Packers chances come next season.
