How long before Spielman or Zimmer are fired?

Zimmer should be fired after this season. Spielman is not the problem here. When a team is unprepared and flat for big games, you have to look at coaching. They appeared unprepared for this game. They knew for weeks this was going to be critical. And zippo, totally not ready and no game planning on offense to attack the Bears. Throw in ST coaching issues and the OC issues, you have to hold Zimmer accountable. He needs to go or he needs to be informed an overhaul is needed in coaching with Offense and ST.

Robert We have a terrible Offensive line. That is on Spielman who is supposed to be building the team. Plus he gave Cousins all that money. Should have been setup with some team options. Plenty of QB's out there.

The O-line cannot be fixed easily. They have tried in FA, which is not the way to fix the O-line as the best players stay with teams. They have drafted O-line the last two years in top rounds. They still need to fix OG. They were dominated yesterday and have been a problem all season long.
Remmers is often lost as to who to block. Compton is not as big of a problem. Easton, stop relying on him as the starter as he is injured every year. Make him a back up or release him.
Draft O-line in first and second round of the draft and possibly LB.
The defense had several players just flat out not play hard, LB is one such position. Safety is another where players did not show up.
Time for something different with coaching. Maybe someone who knows how to scheme and create game plans. Shurmur was able to do that on offense last year. With more talent this year on the team the offense was not able to hold its own. And the talent is there except on the O-line.

Robert We have a terrible Offensive line. That is on Spielman who is supposed to be building the team. Plus he gave Cousins all that money. Should have been setup with some team options. Plenty of QB's out there. I see it that way too. 6 OL guys went before we picked in the 1st round. We took O'Neill in the 2nd round and he turned out to be a gem. Spielman gambled and lost when he didn't get a free agent to help the OL. They thought they could get away with who they had. Plus the Reif and Remmers FA choices were both pretty much busts. All that's on Spielman. They give 28 mil per to a QB that they can't protect. Our guard and center play was abysmal. They have to blow up the OFF Line and keep O'neill and Elflein and maybe Isidora replace the rest. I'd give Barr a paycut or trade him and I'd trade Rhodes for a stud Off Line guy.
They always seem to cater to the defense so it better be offense line and TE all the way this year.

And the talent is there except on the O-line. Rob I agree with all above. It's hard to overstate the loss of Shurmur and especially Sparano who got everything plus out of his marginal players talent. Everybody played worse this year under the new OL coach. He has to go. They need another TE too who can block and catch. I like Kyle Rudolph but he's limited. He's a poor blocker. I'd ask him to come back for less.
As I said before, trade Rhodes for a quality starter. I'm tired seeing him get flagged or reach for him hamstring 3 times a game.
