this isn't a petzing thread - we're not talking petzing - screw petzing - but who are we going to replace him with?

im going off the assumption - scratch that - im going off faith something will be done today - i have faith that monti and gannon value their jobs and reputations

again not a petzing thread - let this be the last time we say his name in here

kurt warner knows mikey and our offense and kyler but he's not coming here and not just because he already has a sweet gig - we are a ish show

that's the rub - not only do we need to find a quality oc - we have to convince them everyone isn't getting fired at the end of the year - lol if you got the job would you buy a house or find a 1 year lease?

but this is monti's freakin job - he should have a list with several candidates at all times - he should have started checking in on them a couple weeks ago

"hey how's the fam" - "no reason for the call just wanted to see what you were up to" - "have you been watching the team?"

one thing i will say is with gannon being such a hands off coach - monti can atleast sell it that way

"it's your offense to do as you please" - "no interference" lol "he let the last guy do whatever he wanted"

anyways we need names - anybody know who our next oc will or should be? please try and keep it realistic- factoring in who we are and what they would have to leave to come here

There's nobody.

You have to have to wait for the Panthers to fire Canales or someone else to do similar.

it's gotta be gannon then - after each of the last 2 losses he's been asked if he's ok with the offensive playcall - both times he deflected by saying he knows what's being called when it's being called

gannon knows what works and what doesn't AND also what hurts rallis and his defense

would you rather have gannon or petzing calling offense at this point? be a sport and choose one in this hypothetical

If he knows what works, why doesn’t he tell someone? His record stinks, so he probably has no idea

Petzing is calling the plays without the framework that Gannon gives him. If Gannon says he wants to run then we run. It's a mix of both.

But, I'd argue that they are working with a QB they clearly do not trust and with good reason.

if there is no other oc on the horizon are we expected to do the same thing over and over knowing it won't work

does gannon still think petzing can do a better job than he can

How long have you watched this franchise?
true that - but if we suck this year gannon is getting canned too - if i was him i wouldn't trust petzing or frye or jag to come in - im working directly with kyler and excavating what works from the playbook

FYI: calling plays is not simply picking up a call sheet and rattling off the lingo to the QB.

I doubt that Gannon knows the offensive playbook thoroughly, and he has ZERO experience on the offensive side.

Ergo - it's Petzing until further notice or turning it over to Drew Terrell, the passing game coordinator.

thx for explaining playcall lol but tell me more about drew terrell por favor - all i know is our receivers could do better at improv when kyler's avoiding pressure - i know i don't blame him for drop game eventho it was every receiver

im open to learning about his past responsibilities - i think gannon understands offensive playcall more than you give him credit for but im open to the terrell talks

2024 Bears fired the OC and went with the passing game coordinator, who had yet to even talk to the QB…

Google... Terrell.

All I'm saying is that at this point in the season, after months of installing the Petzing playbook, the only viable choice is internal.

i agree on internal but idk who terrell is - and our receivers quit on routes - stand around and watch - if our receiving unit was our strength and was better coached i could see it but it looks like justin frye level failing forward

It would be in house. Too bad our head coach doesn't know how to call plays.

Terrell obviously knows the playbook. Would he be willing to keep his "foot on the gas?" Yesterday the Cardinals were moving the ball well the first few drives. I read somewhere it was like they picked up where they left off at the end of the Seattle game. Then we heard or saw basically nothing from Marvin or Trey McBride. Keep airing it out for crying out loud. I just want someone with that mentality the whole game. Evaluate Terrell at season's end and if he's not up to the job bring in someone new. I think there will be some offensive minded HC's that get booted, McDaniel, Canales, Daboll. Or what about bringing Todd Haley back?

This is an interesting question. Mid-season, you're not going outside the organization. I see three names internally.

My order of preference

1. Ben Steele - TE Coach
Pro
- Best unit on offense. Has coached for 18 years, 12 in the NFL.
Con - Never called plays

2. Israel Woolfork - QB Coach
Pro
- Knows Kyler and might be able to get the most out him. Unknown who would love to prove himself to earn the job full-time.
Con - Has been Kylers QB Coach for nearly 3 year now. Never called plays.

3. Drew Terrell - Passing Game Coordinator /WRs Coach
Pro
- Has called plays. Signs of life from MHJ are starting to show. Always stiiing next to Kyler watching film on the sideline.
Con - Has been in charge of the passing game for 2 plus season and its regressed.

Petzing. Gannon isn't offensive.

Makes no difference. Kyler is the problem. You can have Steven Spielberg directing but there's only so much he can do with Pauly Shore in the starring role.
