deangelo got pretty undisciplined this year, fell back on old habits, like trying to bounce it out too early.

Old habits like in 2008 when he was elite? Like the 200-yard game against the Saints? I don't recall him having major ball-security issues, but the 4-game win streak very well could've made me forget.

OL coach worked miracles down the stretch.

And the RB coach totally failed known RBs?

right....

Cam got hit on almost every drop back...sure man...whatever you say.

Keeping in mind our worst stretch was with our best Linemen.

Yeah man but our OLine was put together with foam peanuts and packing tape there at the end of the season.

My opinion is that the OL issues were lack of talent not coaching. Given what he had to work with I think the OL coach did better than expected.

Bears probably aren't looking to hang on to Tim Spencer. He started coaching in Chicago the same year Rivera did.

It's conceivable they might be letting Settle go in favor of Spencer. Rivera only kept Ron Meeks until he had a chance to bring Steve Wilks on board.

Another one out there is Skip Peete (Rodney's brother) who was recently fired by the Cowboys. No connection between him and Rivera that I know of, though.

That's not at all what I'm saying, but continue to on with your drivel is you like.

There's plenty of blame to go around, but I feel the OL coach did a far more admirable job than did the RB coach.

So he can coach scrubs but not All pros? Makes no sense.

So the RB coach was responsible for our terrible run game? I'm not saying the Oline coach was either, just laughable that he is the fall guy.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
