Now, if you are a bears fan at all from before the 2001 season you will know that the 13-3 record had pretty much nothing to do with John Shoop, and everything to do with his predecessor.
On the other hand the following two loosing seasons had everything to do with John Shoop and his horrible….horrible play calling.
If you want a recap of peoples general hatred for John Shoop, just check out FireJohnShoop.com. I echo all of these feelings and was ashamed of how horrible the 2002 season turned out after everyone figured out the “First 15 plays” (read the website and that will make more sense).
Well, if you are Oakland right now I would wonder if you can do worse than you currently are by promoting John Shoop to offensive coordinator. I suppose it will be worthwhile to watch and see if they actually get worse…which is a distinct possibility in my mind.
