[BOTT]

Even more reason to hate the Bears

[VaAllDay757]

With all that talent he should do fine

[PeterBowman]

Good for him honestly and I hope he does well.....unless they play the Colts.

[Shadow_Creek]

ohh boy now he'll be saying Khalil Mack and cheese alot lol 

[John Hammonds]

Good luck to him.  I hope for his sake that all his players remain healthy.  For him, that would be a nice change of pace.

Me too.  That’s great!

[NorthernBlue]

Happy for the guy.

 

I think he's gonna do really well. When he had talent in Baltimore, they had a strong defense (I believe second in the league).

 

I expect he'll do well

 He inherited Ray Lewis, Suggs, Ed Reed and a bunch of other Quality experieced holdovers for the one year they coached their defense. Good Luck Chuck. This will save Irsay a Mill or Two.

[oldunclemark]

I'm so glad to see this.

Coach Chuck has always gotten players to play hard....

 

He was a winning coach with the Colts until Andrew got hurt.

..and for him to fall in with this defense is a dream situation.

 

Good for him

And now he's got Mack, Floyd, Eddie Jackson, Roquon Smith, and a bunch of other studs. He's gonna be fine. 

[RollerColt]

Happy for the man. He and Nagy combined could do some good things together. 

 

Good luck Chuck!

[Maniac]

• Good luck Chuck.

 

He knows defense and the Bears have one of the best defensive groups in the league.

[Defjamz26]

Bears really want to keep the 3-4 it seems. They kept Fangio after they let John Fox go. 

 

Pagano isnt HC material, but his secondaries were always respectable with us. I think this is a good move for him. 

[coming on strong]

bears will win the super bowl next year.  chuck will have that defense in the same league as the 2000 ravens or 85 bears.  

[DrLuck]

O man. I can say Pagano had absolutely no business being an NFL head coach. I'm usually on the other side of arguments like this, thinking generally if you make it to that NFL you're pretty damn good at whatever you do. Pagano is an exception to that. He was just so over his head and clueless. Maybe as a DC he will be ok, but I hope for their sake he's not calling the plays lol.

You and I saw that coming...

[richard pallo]

What a great spot for him to land.  Couldn't have worked out better.   Hope to see you in the SB next year.

He was a good DC for that one year in Baltimore. Had a lot of talent on that defense, but he will in Chicago. Not a bad hire at all.

[GoColts8818]

Good for Chuck.  I hope he does well there.

Lets not get carried away…...I like Chuck..

….but the '85 Bears put QBs on IR

So name me the list of first time head coaches who had a better record than Pagano did.

I will be waiting.

[dew5150]

Keep chopping wood Chuck! Good dude. He'll be great as a DC

[Dingus McGirt]

Sometimes there's a pooch that can't be screwed.

[Vexed]

I remember how charged this state was when Chuck was diagnosed and the team was winning for him. The way the community rallied around him. Was a special time I will remember fondly. I sincerely wish Chuck the best and hope he does great..... except against the SHOE!

[Myles]

Good for him.  Coordinator is his calling. 

[TomDiggs]

Happy for him.

 

He spent how long here preaching "Building the monster" ? I am curious to see what he does with that Chicago D because he is inheriting a monster right away as he walks in.

 

Let's see how he schemes them and what he does w that beastly D.

 

Glad he is getting another gig.

[Coltsman1788]

Congrats to Pagano but I don’t really like this hire for the Bears.  Significant step down from Fangio in my opinion.

[SLILLINGTON10]

Smart move by Chuck, great gig and if he has a season or two with that defense playing at their #1 level he could find himself as a HC again. Wish him all the best!

[LJpalmbeacher2]

What do the Football Gods have against the Bears? 

[aReggie7]

Best of luck to him. That's a great fit for him. They already have the type of talent for his preferred style of defense. On top of that it's really good talent. I'm sure he will do well there.

[WoolMagnet]

Whats the over/under on him saying "build the monster" or "keep choppin wood" in the interview?

Wasnt he fond of "you know" too?

Man I dont want to get into it like that.  I feel like we won in spite of pagano not because of him. He just looked clueless, the team always came out flat, inexplicable decisions at times, no accountability to players... I mean like I said he seems like a good person so I don't want to sit here and bash him but in my objective opinion he is not qualified to be an NFL head coach.

Your opinion? Yes... Objective? No..

You realize Pagano admitted that we won in spite of him right?

 

 

 

[stitches]

I'm happy for Chuck. He deserves another chance to get in the game, if not as HC at least as DC. And now he's going to have the defensive talent to show off what he can do as a defensive mind. No excuses now. Good luck to him.
