Yeah, the organization is definitely dysfunctional. I'm reminded of a few years ago, after Emery was canned and the team was searching for a new GM. Chris Ballard, the team's previous director of scouting (who had been there through both the Angelo and Emery eras) who became director of pro personnel in Kansas City, was widely seen as the frontrunner, and George McCaskey liked him. And then in his final interview, which was with Ted Phillips, Ballard basically told Phillips that he sucked shit at running a football team, and if he were hired, he was going to go straight to McCaskey and demand that Phillips be restricted to running the business side of things, while he (Ballard) have control over the on-field product. Phillips went to McCaskey and said that Ballard would be a negative presence, and that's how the team wound up with Ryan Pace.
But, man, John Fox is the guy you hire to take a veteran team over the hump. The Bears still have so many holes, especially on offense (once again, even if Cutler were healthy, he'd have another year of having no one to throw to), and if some permutation of Loggains and Fangio departs, then Fox is going to have the same issue hiring new coordinators that Lovie Smith did near the end of his run -- no one wants to go to work for a head coach who's a dead man walking.
