Just three months ago, I offered some advice to newly hired Bears general manager Phil Emery, and for the most part he took it.
Phil Emery is getting a lot of credit today, for things he may or may not be accomplishing.
One NFL expert thinks Tice was one of the main factors that propelled the team to its five-game winning streak before Jay Cutler's injury.
Sources tell WSCR that Tice was unhappy about the team's public position that he needed so much help to do his job, and made his feelings known to Lovie Smith.
The Bears announced Wednesday afternoon they have hired Tim Holt as their new offensive line coach.
The addition of Jeremy Bates as the Bears new quarterbacks coach will give Jay Cutler something he's yet to have in Chicago -- familiarity.
