        Don't need to throw if he can run on them like he did y'all.

          Usually coaches say it just wasn't a good fit and so and so is a heck of a coach, this time John kinda just said our offense sucks so I fired him. Which is obviously true, I just wasn't expecting it.
          No need to mince words. The play calling had become so egregious, there was really no covering for it.

          That being said, a lot of this falls at Harbaugh's feet too, and he has made some truly terrible coaching decisions the past few weeks. I hope he's not just using Trestman as the fall guy, and does some self-evaluating.

            Which one? He got you guys more than once in the playoffs...

                Las Vegas Stadium plan passed state Senate today. Assembly convenes after Yom Kippur Thursday morning to consider the bill. Once done there that leaves the owners and a county commission vote to enact the new tax I think.

                  It'd be ****ed up but funny as hell if at the end of the season, Mark Davis is like "Nah, I changed my mind and want to stay in Oakland".

                    What's the chance of him saying that?

                    I'm still scratching my head as to why they wanna move. I think the Raiders rank in the top 5 in fan loyalty...out of any major sport.

                      It's not really a secret why, they want a new stadium.

                        They share a 50 year old facility that the city can't do anything to improve. Ronnie Lott is leading an effort to keep them but there's no concrete information as to how.

                        If the Raiders don't relocate then UNLV has 2 years to come up with $200m and a smaller collegiate stadium plan moves forward instead.

                          I know he is not playing right now, but what is keeping Jay Cutler in the NFL? Is it just because of his arm strength? I am not being funny but I am just trying to figure out why the Bears ownership loves him so much. At the rate the Bears are going, they will probably end up with the #1 pick in 2017.

                            First, I would say that Cleveland will have the #1 pick next year, not Chicago.

                            Second, have you seen the 10 QBs in Cleveland this year? If those guys are in the league, there's plenty of room for Cutler.

                            He is terrible though, I'll definitely agree with that.

                              I agree with both things you said, but it still surprised me. Usually you get a mix of the generic just time for a change, not a good fit, needed to do something to kick start the team, etc.

                              As for Harbough, he has never really been great at game management. We've dealt with some of this ever since he has been here. What he has been great at is motivation and having everyone buy in to the team.

                                A lot of teams would kill to have a QB like him start for them. Have you seen some of the QBs playing in this league right now?! The list of reasons the Bears will have a high draft pick is far beyond the QB position. They could've gotten rid of Cutler back when the Smith era ended and the Bears would be in exactly the same situation right now. After this season, he will be gone and the Bears will still be bad.
