That's kinda what I think too. If we trust the coach then we have to trust his hires and so far he's brought in a group of top flight co-coordinators that others would love to have.

If he brings in other assistants he's worked with and knows their value then I'm fine with that. I don't see anyone turning him down like we saw for few years when we had JA and Lovie running the show. That should tell us something.

My Dog would have done a better job on WR Coach then Drake did.

Consider that when Trestman went to Montreal, he was going to a new city in a new country with a different culture and language. The league was different, with unique rules, ways of playing, different traditions that go back over a 100 years, and possessing a different terminology. He couldn't simply take his previous football knowledge and stamp it on the Als. He had to learn. Learn the game, learn about players many of whom were totally new to him, likewise the coaching staff. He had to handle the turnover in staff and players, impose a new, stricter regime in a league where laid back is the norm. He turned a middle of the road team into a perennial powerhouse, and it was his first head coaching gig! Just to top things off, he had to buck the dismal history of other NFL to CFL head coaches. Listen to the Als players and coaches; he improved everyone who was willing to put in the effort, even long time vets like Calvillo.

I'm sounding like a Trestman salesman here and I'm not. Hell, he coached the opposition, so he wasn't exactly on my Facebook friends list. My Ticats will have an easier run without him being around. I guess that's the greatest compliment a coach or player can receive; the opposition being glad not to have to face you again.

Well said! I think everything will be okay with Trestman. Yes there will be a learning curve but I really think he has the tools to make the Bears a great team.

I really think that he knows what he is doing to be honest.

actually they were glad to see him go after the als D got toasted in their last 3 games of 2011 including the east semi where your ticats raked a massive 52 points on us. But to be fair there were a lot of injuries and we had to make do with a patchwork defence. As a LB coach he'll be fine. He did help us win in 2009-10.

Soul, it's in the set of pre-defined avatars. If you edit your avatar, the set comes up. It's on page 12, next to my favorite one.
