Tice To Employ New Offense Based On Matchups
Though his background is with the offensive line, don't expect new offensive coordinator Mike Tice to rely strictly on the run.

Though his background is with the offensive line, don't expect new offensive coordinator Mike Tice to rely strictly on the run.
With last week's rambling, incoherent press conference at Halas Hall providing the perfect symbolic catalyst for his efforts, team president Ted Phillips apparently decided to race back to his office and play Angry Birds.
The Tennessee Titans reportedly denied a request from the Bears to interview quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains.
As a person, Troy Aikman will tell you how great Mike Tice is, but as an offensive coordinator, that's a different story.
Bears offensive line coach Mike Tice will reportedly be promoted to offensive coordinator
If the Bears choose to part ways with offensive coordinator Mike Martz at the end of this season, they may not have to look far for his replacement.
Just over a month ago, the Bears were 2-3 and looked to be headed for disappointment. Five wins later, they seem like a legitimate player in the NFC race after another rather impressive showing against San Diego on Sunday. That is, if they are able to overcome Jay Cutler's broken thumb.
Sidelined since Week 2 by a knee injury Carimi has missed five straight games. His status for Monday's matchup against the Eagles is still uncertain, but the Bears are hoepful he will return.
Lovie Smith does appear to have his own supply of paper towels, though, that he's been able to pull out of the supply closet, to unroll as needed to mop up the pessimism (and who would engage in that, dare I ask?) and keep his team from slipping into the abyss.
If Carimi can pick up a new position so easily, doesn't that suggest he could probably play his normal position adequately at the NFL level?
Well, one preseason game is in the books and there is a lot to talk about. Let's get straight to your questions:
The mailbag heats up this week as the Bears get ready for their first preseason game against the Buffalo Bills Saturday.
There's still over a month until the Bears open their season against the Atlanta Falcons, but Bears offensive line coach knows who he wants to start in front of Jay Cutler Sept. 11 at Solider Field.
It never felt right that a shaky offensive line seemed so desperate to retain a mediocre center.
After being drafted by the Chicago Bears, Gabe Carimi made the quick transition form a Green Bay Packers fan. There's one more transition he needs to make, and like all NFL rookies, that might take a while.
As Bears as Bears can be, they take a perfectly satisfying story and complicate it by screwing something up.
He's been called arrogant and injury prone. So what's the truth about the Bears' new offensive tackle?
The Chicago Bears have extended some coaching contracts, including the contract of offensive coordinator Mike Tice. Just two days prior, he was denied permission to interview with the Tennessee Titans.
Lovie Smith usually does not stand in the way of his assistants leaving to take bigger jobs elsewhere. Most NFL head coaches find that it's good business to build a reputation as someone supportive of career advancement.
The beginning and end of the 2010 Chicago Bears' season look like complete opposites. And the defining change during the season took place during a week the Bears didn't play.
The Bears' offensive line was taking a great deal of criticism in the early part of the season. They gave up an NFL-record number of sacks in the first half against the Giants, but have slowly improved.
Not too long ago, Lovie Smith seemed primed to be forced out of Chicago. Now, that doesn't seem as likely.
Time is everything, especially when you're a quarterback in a Mike Martz offense. The more time Cutler has had to throw the ball the better the results have been and the more his confidence has grown.
The offensive line has come under plenty of scrutiny so far this season. But, simplification doesn't appear to be their strategy for improvement.
From the moment the news broke that Randy Moss had been waived by the Minnesota Vikings, every Bears fan wondered if the team would take a shot at him. According to Hub Arkush it could happen.
