His won loss record against winning teams is certainly scary enough to reconsider him but not at the expense of hiring Whiz instead.

Here,here

 

Then consider the QB's Lovie won with... Cmon 13-3 and a super bowl with Rex Grossman / Brian Griese at QB!

 

So, do we know if the Bears GM's are more responsible for the hirings of those incompetent OC's? Was Lovie Smith allowed to choose his own assistants or was that delegated to him by the GM's above him?

 

9 years, 81-63, .563 % with mostly scrubs at QB.

 

2004 5-11 QB Chad Hutchinson, 5 games, Jonathan Quinn, 3 games, Craig Krenzel, 3 games. Rex Grossman, 3 games besides Grossman who are these guys? Geez!

2005 11-5 took the guy one year to go to the playoffs. QB Kyle Orton 15 GS.

 

Man, look at that Bears defense this year, I want some of that in Buffalo!

Kyle Orton is very similar to Alex Smith. Smith is better, but they both manage games, not lose them for you. They will not fumble or throw INT's in the final 5 minutes of games, like someone we have had. Lovie would be okay, depending on who is coordinators are.

Considering the dozens of posts saying (approximately) "I'd be fine with Lovie Smith contingent on who he brought in as OC"

 

I would say that the answer to your question is NO.

 

People are not overlooking this fact.

 

You speak for me. Whose this OC gonna be ? This should get interesting

He manages it well enough to have a winning record. I love this ... here is a winning coach(a better winning percentage than Gruden BTW) and people hate the idea.

 

Amazing.

 

I just want someone who will manage the team. I would like a coach that knows what he wants to do on both sides of the ball and I'm not sure I've seen or read about that in regards to Lovie...

As apposed which other candidates NFL win/loss record against teams with winning records? What is Whiz's record against winning teams? I have not seen that mentioned anywhere for any other candidate. And no one else was a head coach in the NFL to compare that stat.

 

 

If you are going to use it a reason that he is a bad choice you should show the other candidates stats side by side.

Sorry. I just figured that a coach with a LOSING record would as a result have a pretty bad record against winning teams.

 

Whiz W-L 45-51

 

Amazing indeed, Sorry if Whiz is your choice.

So I am assuming you have a coach in mine that you have seen/read about who DOES know what he wants to do on both sides of the ball? Who is it, I want to read more about him.

It's all going to depend on which coordinator Lovie or Whiz bring with them. If Lovie can get a great OC then I'll be happy. I'd probably be happy with Whiz if he brought Horton but it sounds like that's not even an option from some of the things I've read so who else could he bring? So my vote goes for Lovie assuming he can land a good OC (Jackson, schurmur, turner, etc)

The Bears GM said he let Lovie go because he could turn the offense around. He hasn't been able to attract a good OC and get the offense going. That is why he was let go and that is my biggest question mark with him....

 

This year there isn't one coach out there who would eba slam dunk. All of them have issues, but from what I have read Horton seems to be a good pick

I love Horton's personality and think he's got a lot of potential as a coach. But I hate the idea of going back to the 3-4 after dropping over $150 million on two 4-3 DE's, not to mention Kyle Williams' $50 million contract for a player without a true position in a 3-4.

Lovie Smith is 22-43 against winning teams. Whiz is 15-29. Chan was, of course, 1-19. Jauron was 4-27.

 

Belichick is 64-47 with the Pats.

Lets say a coach won every game against teams under .500 and won half against winning teams. They'd be around .750 which is very high. Being 22-43 against winning teams is not as bad as advertised.
