Lovie Smith

[Green Bud Packer]

the football gods are lifting the bears higher and higher so when they drop it'll be a bigger splat.

At this point Lovie is as good a HC as Sherman was because both have gotten good teams with good records to the playoffs. I dont put Sherm as a great HC because he never took the next step. So the same can be said of Smith.

Smith still has time to make his mark but while good no one can say he is great. He still has time though.

I see some of the blank looks on Lovie's face, and I get the feeling that he may not know what to do. I am thinking that he has a very good staff, one that will probably start getting raided (we interviewed Ron Rivera (sp?) - next year he maay be the hot coaching candidate) by other teams.
Lovie probably set up the coaching structure of the team, but my gut instinct says it isn't Lovie that has the team hungry.
(Now to be honost I haven't seen as many blank looks as I did last year and in the pre-season.)

I can't call him great yet, he hasn't won a ring. I certainly think he has the potential to be a great one and bring the Bears a championship. He has done an excellent job so far and it has been especially noticeable this year.

he has this team responding the way they should be after being humiliated at home in the playoffs. The Bears are very confident but guarded. They seem to know that they cannot allow themselves to get too big headed yet, they very obviously have their eye on the prize. These guys are pissed off when they allow an opponent to score, after last nights near perfect performance Grossman says "I know we can do better". That folks is a focused team with tunnel vision and it all starts with the head coach.

We are also overlooking the job Angelo has done putting this team together through trades, drafts and free-angency. Love them or hate them you have to admit they have an exceptional amount of young talent and depth. Face it, when Urlacher isn't even your best defensive player you know you're bad-assed.

Great, Not great, I don't care, all I know is he has us 4 an 0 this year and he has DA BEARS playing at a very high level. Everything is clicking, I mean everything, ofence, defence, special teams, kicking, clock managemnet, everything. You can not have him, he is ours. He is the best we have had sence.. "the Coach". He made a statement the day he took the reins, Beat GB(we have)win the division(we have)win a SB(we are on our way). Sorry for you lose tonight(not realy, just being polite) and we'll see you in Dec.

GO BEARS !

The Bears look great at the moment, hopefully for the Bears fans sake, they aren't peaking at the wrong time.
