" Pad big -- of analysis all of those airports why do you buy touchdowns other days of the video at a board. 'cause you know."

" With less than average play. At the three technique. Honestly question I don't."

" what's gonna happen is. And I just have to local book thrown the biggest. The biggest part of that. -- questions -- having a -- you're just gonna do what his resume and do with the givens and doing okay Tommy. Understand that Thomas is doing his body right. On the -- said no no --"

" So we need him."

" Are you sensing defeat here and it started with Lovie Smith last week by essentially bench in Tommie Harris and then calling him out on Monday I think that was more for reaction Q what Tommie Harris had two. Say to the media the day before in Cincinnati after the game against the Bengals. And now one of the team captains going out and basically saying hey we're we're understanding that the you know you've got some issues with your knee. But not enough to prevent you from playing at a higher level than what the Bears -- seen over the first five games were Tommie Harris has been on the field. Under caveat facility that Bears actually answered a question. Yes that is different is that I'm just pleased to know like gates. They they will answer questions apparently what really sets them off easy if you ask about an injury and no one asked Adewale Ogunleye about his ankle that prevented him from practicing yesterday the good news is he was dressed for practice. And he's out there don't know what he did today because so we're not allowed to see them actually practice but he was out -- practicing players wearing shorts and shells some not wearing shorts deciding to go with longer warmup pants but the bottom line is they weren't in full pads today so wasn't as rigorous as with a -- yesterday."

" Well what Lovie needs to understand and this was a point that was well articulated last night the by Laurence Holmes on his show once we got done. If Lovie is going to avail himself of the media to spread whatever message he wants regarding any of his players. When the media is the air force him to allow him to to create this little teapot tempest over Tommie Harris. That he can't. Respond with this indignant tone -- that they that they dare ask a question any reporter dares ask a question about personnel or injuries. When he's sort of come out now and in the -- it's convenient for him. To say what he wants when when it's inappropriate. Conduit for him."

" I don't understand by the way both sides of this I I think any. We're allowed to ask questions and I don't think that's the issue and I also understand. There you Wal-Mart find an NFL coach and for that matter a coach in any professional sport in North America the talks about what he plans to do personnel wise very well if it's rare well it's rare era baseball dugout that's different though you companies have any professional sports I I think the basketball court. Well November including a delicate blueprint -- the Lou Piniella this season I don't think he was very honest at least in the early going in regards to Alfonso Soriano sneak. And and he allowed people -- to pile on when clearly the left fielder was hurt and you say you see this in other sports in football. It's a definite no no for whatever reason coaches just don't feel comfortable talking about personal they definitely don't feel comfortable talking about entries and then you covered it it's not just Lovie Smith Wannstedt was this week picture."

" I was definitely don't know it wasn't. No he wasn't that -- away wants it wasn't it wasn't very good coach but he didn't react if you didn't have a right to know you should know better than to ask getting it he would tell you. It was always on the record. Let's put it -- you what you offense different -- did you find it would seek easy Levine doesn't even do that they'll you'll find a way of getting the information that you need. And if you humility isn't material difference to Eric Mangini weathered -- Josh beaten -- is playing like all of a sudden all of my -- all that practice was thrown off."

" I think and we talked about this yesterday I think it kind of knew where the change is what we're gonna happen now it again I must -- I agree with it. I I understand why these coaches do what they do but -- all I know for sure is that. They have to fix. What ever wrong and I don't necessarily believe that -- putting Josh you've been in at left guard makes Orlando Pace a better player that is gonna prevent some of the issues that we've seen this specifically the last two weeks. With Chris Williams they have much bigger issues than just one guy on the offensive line and they have much bigger issues on defense than -- switching. One middle linebacker to one side and and moved -- the strong side linebacker to the other back to me. It is not necessarily dinner -- gonna solve all the yeah problems so you've seen with the pairs of last to a lot of respect in the middle. Accounts it would seem that that's the word went obviously we won't find out from won't be until ninety minutes before kick appeals and I."

" I don't you know I've I've caught the middle I I don't know Hollywood there's nothing there that would frighten anybody I mean what what. Well I and I agree I don't think it's necessarily saying we get a lot better we judge people and because I don't think you can't. And I don't know field and off. Hunter has to be more aware of stuff. And they've give because he's been around longer than new approach -- terms of a lot of things that you have to do for the middle -- I have to think that Lovie continue to mistake by doing what he did."

" Well I thought Lovie Smith and and he admitted she heard him talk about the -- after the game about how it wasn't his best coaching effort as as a play caller on defense today and one of the problems they had was. I think adjusting to life all the switches that does Cincinnati was making after the Bears initially set the lineup up and up -- and I think there was a slow adjustment in communication from them. Coach to the middle linebacker in the middle linebacker Justin yeah so perhaps they feel that. Look walk it wrong to feel wrong -- I -- the secondary did it just didn't look like a big they've ever been together before in MM -- blame it on Nick Roach an -- I don't know what you do about it. They have like I think I think the play caller has to be faster in very. Really reeling the plays but since that did become an issue I think she would feel more comfortable with Hillenmeyer who. Everyone acknowledges understands this defense like a coach on the field. But he doesn't have the kind of athletic skills that Nick Roach has in terms of asking guys to step up near the line for ten to -- stop the run and then go back to pass coverage that's where you might get burnt with a Hillenmeyer in the middle."

" Let's just say that Tommie -- And there's a difference in this league between being hurt and being injured I may hurt but I'm not injured some and get out there and play. And what -- feast continues to suck. You know it it at some point. The Bears will realize that either they're getting diminishing returns. From a relatively expensive player not that there are are the cap ramifications that they thought there might be because there are probably out from under the most -- parts of it but. What's the next step within this year will we see him inactive again."

" I think if you can simply Q so you can see the same player that you saw for the first five games the rest of the way. I don't think Tommie Harris will finish the season as an active player because I agree with -- can't have that kind of -- and then when you look at. At the end of the year that's when you have to start thinking about perhaps saying goodbye to this guy because. If he can't get anything close to the the Pro Bowl version forty you know with the Bears had to do all over again. I guarantee you they would have not signed that contract they would of franchised tagged him and then the forced him on and on its yearly basis to go out there and prove that he can play that at at least the level that you saw in 2000. Big mistake."

" Guys -- pitino is that donors and audio there we discussed this that I feel wasn't you know it gets performance related news the fact he wasn't practicing and if you're not gonna practice. You've got to play better and I can see hasn't really bad that Tommy for the Bears 'cause I see what you see I see. Unlikely in my football world to finish the season than active player and then going. I mean I don't know if you say -- Eagles Soros who becomes a star that we have to listen to bats. I mean I I don't know -- If it's just the injuries are they just caught up will into the point -- just can't anymore and stuff like all I need more -- if he gets a week from -- he needs more time to he'll net. I don't think that's hit with Tom --"

" I I agree with you I think -- and I think the Bears are understanding that that there's a knee condition here than it might prevent him from playing. At that extremely high level that you saw when he first entered the week. But they still feel he can play better and if you can't then you have some serious issues all you do going going. Into the future here because I can you successfully run base defense without someone who plays. Three technique. At the kind of level. You saw Tommie Harris play. When he was approved of that was skill position in this defense that that is you got is that just me stand your ground to spot you must be disruptive. And if you're not it puts the pressure and everybody else -- and that's what -- when when you watch games. Don't look at Tommie Harris for statistics what you're looking -- with interest said you're looking for disruption you're looking for a guy they continually. Causes havoc for an offensive line and by the way I should point this out Alex Brown today calling the Cleveland offensive line the best offensive line that the Bears will face to this point in the season. This is one win team to hit the road we'll all. I think he just said it because the guy he's facing could be the best left tackle but he's faced this season. In Joe Thomas very skilled play began position but the other guys not so much. Now he did point out that at Cleveland is one in six not because of the offensive line. And some of that is true they do have just awful quarterback played their receivers dropped a total of twenty to catch more passes this season which is the most. Of any TV annually insist on bad quarterback play. I don't. And I think they're doing it because they don't wanna give Brady Quinn the big extension or feasibility no he had. He's he's out of wild don't know what is -- Yeah and inexplicable what was the season's over right but I think there's that there's a clause in his contract -- bet that's dependent on playing time you make a lot of money out. He's so that's I think that's one of the reasons that they've elected he's he can't be any worse than Derek Anderson has been so far this."

" Yeah what are awful situation he's gotten himself into here where. He got someone of a shot to win the job in many blew it and then the guy behind him Sox. Enjoy your outfit sucks stuff I've got a real like historically bad and and then everything goes so badly that because of the deal he negotiated to be their next star quarterback they won't let him do it will play --"

" Kent and by the way when you see historically bad and I think it it Bears repeating the Browns have lost their third straight game any -- that the Browns have. Play their third straight game right in which they have knocked. Accumulated 200 yards. Of offense and Derek Anderson's numbers are so bad you your purchase it's justified when he's dead it was guard belatedly that yes and in what he's talking about his. He's got 244. Passing yards over the last three games that's 81 point three yards per game and a rating of thirty point nine. During those three games and -- that's what he's talking about -- Nuggets entered this course plays right now the right tackle for the Browns guys is former -- John saint -- and I don't know what the scouting report says on him but the Bears have but we got a pretty good idea today where I don't Wally Kubiak said that quote. He tries hard to and then Alex Brown said quote he's going to try really hard."

" And -- good things look great defense that we. Doesn't what do we do over again just -- Jose player later on oh I can't wait by the way only. -- there's all access tonight with the Anthony Adams and Israel Idonije and happy birthday to -- the program Amanda Beard twenty. That you saw a shot on the radio -- scenario very -- shuttle can't go bad that they heard her alone famous people stay married off they're not that's true especially if you still lurking out there. Communities that we weren't -- the -- broke up the Greg Norman Chris -- he managed to -- unfortunately he was going after Greg nor. My shorts. I thought okay this is the Obama have ever seen you with your -- drive. --"
