Source: Weis intrigued by Bears job
http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nf...ory?id=4799863
CHICAGO -- It appears the Chicago Bears won't have a shortage of candidates to replace Ron Turner, who was fired as offensive coordinator on Tuesday. ESPNChicago.com Bears blog The latest news from Bears beat reporter Jeff Dickerson. Blog Former Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis is interested in the possibility of coming to Chicago, and he is currently holding off pursuing a similar role with the Kansas City Chiefs because of Tuesday's developments at Halas Hall, according to a source close to the Bears. Weis was the offensive coordinator for the New England Patriots from 2000-04, playing a role in three Super Bowl championships. He also was the offensive coordinator for the New York Jets from 1997-99. Weis was fired as Notre Dame's head coach on Nov. 30 after a five-year record of 35-27. Former St. Louis Rams head coach Mike Martz also said he "absolutely" would be interested in replacing Turner. Bears quarterback Jay Cutler is believed to be lobbying hard for ex-Denver Broncos quarterbacks coach Jeremy Bates, who spent last season calling plays for USC. |

I've taken information and analysis from a former QB explaining part of the reason why Cutler's INT numbers are inflated, and you're trying to use it as an excuse for why Cassel sucked this year, without any evidence whatsoever. FWIW, formation is determined by terminology. Ex: (and a VERY basic one) Ace Right 12 X-slant Z-post Ace Right is the formation, 12 is the personnel grouping (1 back, 2 TE's) and tells the players where to line up X-Dig means the X receiver runs a slant route Z-Go means the Z receiver runs a post route. Some teams would list it as Ace Right, 28. The 2 designates the slant, and the 8 designates the post. The routes themselves don't change. Chambers didn't have to re-learn to run a post, or a slant, or a post-corner. He just had to learn the terminology, which is why LINING UP was a problem. |

And people think I'M cynical. Jim Miller's opinion is worthless because he's on the payroll, and because your eyes can't possibly be deceiving you. Got it. |

they were wrong ... Haley talk about wanting someone to run the offense for him next year. He also almost gave Weis a verbal blow job during his press conference.

You want to think it's true without any evidence so you can make an excuse for Captain Checkdown. |

So was this press confrence even worth listening to? Because to be honest every other press confrence this year didn't even deserve a thread.

I don't recall him saying anything that made Cassel look like a superstar, as a matter of fact, I vividly recall him criticizing the "hail mary" and his overall decision making. Did he say some nice things, but that tends to happen when it's Week 15 and this is your first game over 265 yards passing. |
