That's certainly part of it. From this fans perspective, the firing of Lovey
Smith in 2012 was a travesty. The next two years of the Marc Trestman project
was a complete failure. They finished 5-11 during his second season as coach.
Finally, in 2015 they hired a new GM and thus the John Fox hiring. Fox was the
Panthers coach from 02-10, then took over the reigns at Denver from 11-15.
Fox now has a 4 yr contract in Chicago.

Dom Capers has been in the league for a long time. Tough, defensive guy. I
still remember him from when he was the DC of Pittsburgh.

Love em' or hate em', Pete Carroll has really done an amazing job in Seattle.
Back to back Superbowl trips is unbelievable in any era but even more
unbelievable in this age of free-agency.

Barring injury, i think the Pack will be fine and continue it's dominance in
the North. Naturally i hope the Bears can get it together under Fox and with
Cutler as the QB but watching Cutlers reaction after that pick could be telling
of the season to come. Ugh!
