Kromer hired by Bears...

lee909 · 01-16-2013, 08:33 AM

Could be a fair few changes in the coaching department this summer.
Might be a good thing,if we can get new coaches signed quickly.
Things go stale after a while s d players stop listening.Fresh ideas,new voices for a new season.

Good luck to Kromer and any others that go,but I'm not too worried.
Can't see it working for him in Chicago myself.His and Carmichaels play calling was appalling last season,and he has nowhere near the same toys to play with in Chicago.He never got the best out of any of the backs so I'd fear for Forte and Bush if I was a bears fan.

Wish him the best and here's to some fresh new play calling for us

So he left us for them and to have the same job....
God I hope he goes 3-13

An offensive line coach calling plays? Yeah, that sounds like something the Bears would do. I'm not surprised. I'm glad I'm not a Bears fan, because they seem to be cursed with either average or downright awful offenses.

I will state again that I'm not worried about any of the current assistants. They didn't pull their weight without Payton. I consider position coaches to be a dime a dozen.

I can see him leaving for a Head Coach job... couldn't blame him there.
But leaving for the exact same thing... sounds like it was all about money.

You do realize that he was an o-Line coach with the Saints and this is a promotion to O-Coordinator?

I knew this.... when I read the topic I got pissed andtotally forgot about it. Wasn't until someone mentioned it. I still wish they had taken Carmichael than Kromer.

But yeah I did know that..

Either had to be about the green or a chance to reunite w/ an old friend. Not sure why'd he want to leave for a lateral move. I've always said, can't blame a guy for wanting to better himself, hopefully he has continued success. We'll be fine.

Have fun with Jay Cutler when he blows up on you like a bay on National TV

He was hired as the Offensive Coordinators position. It's a step up from O-line coach.
