Bears ST coach Dave Toub

..is currently unemployed.

Obviously ST was a nightmare and has been for quite a while(yes I'm aware we had some serious depth issues due to injuries to our starters but still...) and it has to be looked at.

Apparently the Bears low balled Dave Toub(didn't even offer him enough money to put him in the top 10 in the NFL for ST coaches) so he is exploring his options now. I just read he's interviewing for the Miami HC job but there is virtually 0% chance he lands that.

I hope we at least give him a look. Would be a GREAT hire.

hell yeah. bears special teams are top of the line. if we got him it'd be an instant upgrade.

i'm also willing to bet he'd want a stud KR to work with, which would make going after ginn jr. in free agency a realistic possibility. pilares is decent but we can do much better.

the thing about the Bears ST is.. everyone thinks it's all due to Hester, but their blocking is fuging phenomenal and their coverage is insane. They were #2 in the league this year at 5.4 yards per punt return allowed compared to our 13.3 yards allowed per punt. WOW, I didn't realize it was THAT bad hahaahaha

Special teams improved GREATLY over the year. Especially in the second half. You can make all the coaching changes you want but at the end of the day, it has a lot to do with the personnel you have on your ST units.

Exactly, If the guys on special teams are dumbfugs then their gonna make the ST coach look like a dumb fug. Its all about execution and knowing your damn assignment when it comes to special teams. The ST coach can only lead them in the right direction its up the players to believe in what he's teaching.

So you are saying the coach doesn't matter? I'm putting my application in tomorrow to all 32 teams!

Seriously, coaches do make a difference. Give Scotty O'Brien and Danny Crossman the same rosters and you would see totally different results.

I don't think Rivera makes any changes in staff, but to say Toub would not make a difference is wrong, imo.

    • 3rd and Chandler Zavala.......... Id toss in Yohsi or Brano/DJ Johnson if that's what it took to get the trade done.    Bungals need OL B-A-D   Its un-godly to treat a unique HOF level level like Burrow with the OL they have and seems going to this year. People forgot during that bungal SB year, Burrow was sacked like 62 times and I believe had the highest hurries as well. They should be in jail for this, no memeing....
    • I will admit this- Kon doesn't look or play like a 19 year. Much bigger and filled out than I thought he was. Plus initiate the offense during his best quarter and he did make some good passes for FG attempts.   I watch NBA years ago and was a top 3 fantasy yahoo managers for years. Many times a player had like 30 points, it mostly came from one or 2 hot quarters. The others were 5 and 0, so his 16 point game is normal in that regard.    If Ball, bridges, and Miller allow Kon to be apart of the team, just depends on if he clicks of not. Another generic white guy comp popped in my head........he of hornet lore-Gordon Hayward 15 points 5 rebs 3.5 asst Maybe??
