He's interviewed for I think 9 head coach positions and has never been chosen. Wonder how he ****s up the interviews.
edit: B&B (on the Score in Chicago) seemed to have some inside info that Rivera had pissed in one too many shoes in the last year. They (the Bears) were hoping he'd get a head coaching gig somewhere this offseason so it wouldn't come to this.

Quite a demotion for Rivera.
I suspect he'll become SD's DC sometime though. I can't see Norv or Cottrel lasting long.

glad the rams didnt hire him last year.
I'm the only Raider fan left from the original OT that still posts in the thread.Tamanon said:
At least Karakand is here! I expect lost of bandwagoners during the pre-season, though.... then they'll disappear during the regular season. :\
Glad Turner went to SD. Hope he ruins them and this time he has no excuses because they're still a power team.

Morton was cut like... Tuesday... ...
Oh and whoever said Chicago probably lowballed Rivera/should have offered him more money, it was reported today that he wouldn't have been back at any price.
It had nothing to do with money.
In an interview today Rivera kept asking "How many people can be cut by the same organization three times?"
He sounded pissed.

ummm dick jauron did not get canned after his 13-3 season, the bears signed him to an extension after the 2001 season, the bears missed the playoffs the next 2 seasons after that, the bears went 4-12 in 2002 and 7-9 in 2003
with the bears he was 35-45 in the regular season, 0-1 in the playoffs, and he stuck by the worst offensive coordinator in recent memory John Poop, i think him being fired was totally justified
get your facts straight before posting bullshit

I have no idea what we are going to do with our pick. I forsee a big change coming with our O-Line, so I wouldn't be upset if we picked up a good lineman with our first pick. If not a lineman, then I think we may need to look at a corner or safety. The only receiver I want from the draft is Calvin and the chances of him being around are pretty much none. I want to say I would give up Schaub for the chance to get Johnson. We need to get something decent for Schaub if we are going to lose him.

C'mon dude, I'm not an idiot. I said I didn't think he did any playcalling, of course I expect the head coach to have some kind of input into the gameplan.yacobod said:
That said, the Bears D really fell apart after the loss of Mike Brown, and I suspect that that may play a big part in not bringing him back next year.
I hope we sign Leonard Davis.

What are the odds of LaRon Landry (S-LSU) falling to down to the Bears pick?

yacobod said:
Yeah, but my point is that if he was such a valuable DC, he would have made adjustments elsewhere. The Ravens, for example, played games without Ray Lewis and were able to adjust.

I really don't think any Bear fan will miss Rivera. I'm looking forward to seeing what Babich brings to the table, if anything.
Look forward to hearing what nicknames Chicagoans come up with for "Babich". Seems the possibilties are endless. :lol

I really hope the Vikings trade down. There just isnt a reciever worth taking at 7. Jarrett is too slow and Ginn isnt even gonna be the best pro reciever from this years Buckeyes team.

You should be able to grab one or the other by the time you pick.
In fact, before you I don't think anyone has a huge need at DL, I don't think the Bucs are gonna use their first round pick to try and get younger. Actually, maybe Washington just before you might take one. AZ needs OLine help big time but Thomas will be gone by then. Eh I could see them going DL or maybe even LB. I like Dansby (one of the more athletic LBs in the league) but who else compliments him? I like their secondary, and uh, that's it. Wow needs at OL, DL, and LB. :lol
God please just let the Giants get Timmons. I swear I will go to church every sunday BEFORE watching football!

This topic is so slow I am considering visiting and posting at (more) Giants forums.

Are you kidding me? All this thread seems to be is Giants, 49ers, and Bears talk, with a few other teams sprinkled in here and there.
So DCX, I like your idea on the draft. I have confidence that Johnson will turn out to be a good receiver. If he was able to produce from passes from Reggie Ball, then him and Vick could be the next Culpepper and Moss or Montana and Rice even.

vick the next culpepper?
sounds about right :lol

Uh oh! Looks like the 2007 Colts will be the 2006 Bengals. Dominic Rhodes arrested for DUI. I can't wait for Peyton Manning to go to jail for kiddie porn.

It is pretty hard to win three games on the road in the playoffs. This record will last longer than you suspect.Andokuky said:
I would have mentioned the Dolphins undefeated season as a record that will last forever, but all the evidence points to that record biting the dust when the Steelers go 19-0 next year.

It's not even as though they're the most Bengalsy team in the AFC South. Not when Titans are having security guards shot at nightclubs.

That is what I did. Went to post at Texans forums not too many people here are interested in Texans off-season talk. Just like I am not interested in 49ers, Giants, or Tampa Bay talk. But this thread is cool when there is a big Monday night game or Sunday night game.

So did anyone hear about LeCharles Bentley's potential career ending injury...?

adalius is as good as ours. mmmmm it tastes so sweet
Btw, someone explain to me how Kam Wimbley with his 11 sacks and 62 tackles didnt make the first-team for Rookies (even while leading in the sack department)? Talk about a bunch of bullshit! At least big E made it -- well deserved boy.
For those of you who like the OLB/DE-type that Kam is, look out for Dekoda Watson from FSU in a few years.. kid is gonna be a baller in the pros as well. I fully expect Geno Hayes to be our stud in 07-08 with him leaving a year early to go in the 1st round of the draft.

Doesn't it suck knowing that the league hates your team and doesn't believe they deserve a title? I mean, your logic would have to lead you to that ultimate conclusion.
Anyway, couple of things: Marty got hosed. Chargers are idiots for either not firing him sooner or just keeping him for one more year. Not that it matters, I'll look forward to them starting 1-4 or something similar.
Something is seriously up with Rivera, there has to be for him to get passed over so much. Either he didn't really want those jobs or he's got some fatal flaw.
Cowher on CBS, and yet, they didn't fire Shannon. Whatever. I dunno if Cowher will fit in there. He'll probably be like Jerome on NBC, the guy that doesn't have much input. He doesn't tell anything like it is, he's too political. Always the master at talking a bunch but not really saying anything.

Well, history has shown that even with a shitty coach coming in that some teams can keep it together for a few years. The Herm Edwards/Bill Parcells Jets, the Jimmy Johnson/Barry Switzer Cowboys, The Mike Holmgren/Mike Sherman Packers, and the Tony Dungy/Jon Gruden Bucs.
