Poles not being to big on himself and adding Cunningham imo is his biggest and best move yet. They feed off each other very well and both have a great feel for talent. Hope we can keep him around for a while.
That’s the absolute best trait in a GM or any position at any job. Being able to accept help and gathering people around you that will tel you the truth and not just a bunch of yes men
This move also shows George has taken advice & understands he had to let Poles bring an Asst in & these 2 make ALL football decisions, George & Ted have nothing to do with them!
@@peterstachura8595 nah, isn't going to happen, I think Poles is where he wants to be! Although that would be a great team, I think someone from in house will be President so they keep the same dynamics.
Never felt better about a GM/Upper Mgmt team in my 37 years as a fan! Let’s just keep this band together for a while, even after we win our next SuperBowl!!! 🐻👇
Also as a long time Bears fan it feels a little strange at times seeing such competence at work for Da Bears which does not have a history of that. And yeah I'm proud of my GM and his team and Da Bears team he's building.
@@electric8668 This team is going to be damn good next year. They might even rattle of a bunch of wins this year. At the very least its going to be competitive.
This is the kind of thing the Bears needed. A GM that takes his job, as his life and passion. That appreciates the details, and is taking the time to be in the moments that count. The kind of leader that is in the now, but is clearly got a plan for the future. Keep drivin' Ryan and Ian!!! Looking forward to seeing this team alive again!
Most importantly a GM that stood up to George & said it's going to be my way or I'm getting on a plane & taking the MN job! I think it was Tony Dungee that had a conversation with George over the past off season & whatever advice Tony gave, George thankfully listened lol. He has finally removed himself & Ted from the football decisions & the guys that actually understand football are in full control.. If you've been a die hard Bears fan for decades, you know this regime just feels different! Plus, we got a QB boys & girls 😜
Stellar absolutely Stellar. I really hope Bears ownership grasp how fortunate they are to have hired such outstanding men. There is a legacy of excellence and success being built that will become legend. Not only in Bear lore , NFL lore. But in sports lore.
I too want nothing more than to be a scout for the Bears and eventually succeed Ryan Poles 20 years from now (in a Newsome/DeCosta situation and after 10 more SB wins)
Glad you see it as well! It's very clear Poles has full control & George & Ted have finally slipped into the background & let the guys who understand football run the show! Thank gosh, this is exactly what this organization needed!
I think its fair to say we may be looking at another great Dynasty in the NFL my friends! This feels FAAAAR different then any other Bears regime, Even when we lose it doesn’t feel like loses in the past… We are building up to something very, very special!!!! I’ve seen in Chicago and I’ve been a fan for well over 30 years!! Bear Down!!!
Definitely feels different & it's sooooo freaking exciting lol! I think the losses aren't as bad this year cuz it's evident we have an elite QB & we know it's only going up from here! There were a couple losses early on where it still stung like it has the last 30+ years..
Wow!!! It can't get better than that, thanks Chicago Bears for giving us a great insight on scouting and a little behind the scenes on Poles and Ian's great partnership
Yeah I made this comment earlier, I say 2-3 years & it will suck to lose him but I bet Poles has already thought about a couple of names for when that day comes..
Usually when the bears are slumping people say. Oh well, at least they get a better draft pick. Well finally there's a gm/coach duo that seems that they're not gonna screw all the picks up and actually build a great team. Love to see it as a bears fan!
Such a stark contrast from the previous regime. As a 30+ year fan I'm impressed and all I ask is to do your jobs to the absolute maximum, for your growth and for the organization's growth.
I like the term that’s rubbing off on the players: I appreciate you. It’s nice hearing the young players saying it, especially to the media who nobody really appreciates.
Awesome stuff with these guys starting the process of evaluating talent so that they can get an idea of what or who their looking for that'll help the Bears next year & beyond 🙂👍👍
Especially because they had a full year & it's their scouts! Last year they had so much more on their plate & they had to rely on the scouts already in place.
Bears nation, we gotta teach our GM how to use the Bluetooth function in his SUV to go hands free while chatting up his scouts. can't have the entire brain trust going down in a singular indecent.
The jury is still out on poles but must say he is a breath of fresh air compared to Ryan pace the last 7 years. Poles is not afraid to be front and center to the media and fans.
@@chetsenior7253 exactly why you never make that move in the first place lol! Poles has been transparent & owned every move so far, I think he has done great for what he had to work with..
I have to say. Welcome to the 21st century Bears. I've been commenting for years that you need to let us see into the business more and have fun outreach with the fans via omni channels.
Great job so far Ryan👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I hope we can get some pass rushing, a linebacker, OL, WR, etc.. love Jack Campbell and Jermaine Burton.. keep it up.. great luck in the next draft 🙏
This is pretty impressive to see both GM Poles and AGM Cunningham scouted college players during the NFL season and NCAA Football season, months before the annual College Senior Bowl in January and the NFL Combine in March. I don't think, before Poles and Cunningham were hired for their F.O. duties, that unsatisfactory GM Ryan Pace would scout college players during the NFL and College Football Season. I hope the players that both Poles and Cunningham saw at Georgia Tech, Clemson & Alabama, were good enough to possibly draft in the 2023 NFL Draft and the help the Bears on the O-Line, D-Line, Edge Rusher plus WR. Bear Down, Go Bears!!!! 🐻🏈🏈🏈
Cool to see 2 well spoken brothas…. It’s funny, I think the term “dumb athlete” is accurate in a lot of cases… But what I learned from sports…. The sharpest minds in baseball is usually the bat catcher,in basketball it’s the point guard… And in football it’s the Offensive Linemen.
It starts with a franchise quarterback that box has been checked. From that point on i would build the offensive line with the next two picks then go defense. You can find weapons in free agency or trade. If Justin can get a top 7 oline he will gives this offense a prolific boost.
So refreshing to see a Bears GM that’s this active and this transparent
Poles not being to big on himself and adding Cunningham imo is his biggest and best move yet. They feed off each other very well and both have a great feel for talent. Hope we can keep him around for a while.

Wow, this was such a cool production and well done video! Would love to see more behind the scenes vids like this :D
You’re a Bears fan 😭
@@nangmung772 if there is one thing to know about Chicago kids it's that we will always be loyal to our teams. Hardcore dedication.
Bears have been doing these videos for a while now
What a great GM hire. Ian Cunningham will one day be a general manager also.
@Jordan Silva My hope would be for Poles to be promoted to be the Bears next President and then have Ian be our GM!!
@@peterstachura8595 that’s exactly what I’m thinking too. Don’t let him get away!
Yeah and we will get that draft pick too I think it’s a 3rd rd pick
That's the plan y'all.. y'all see he hired Cunningham as an assistant manager... I'm down if poles moves up
@@peterstachura8595 nah, isn't going to happen, I think Poles is where he wants to be! Although that would be a great team, I think someone from in house will be President so they keep the same dynamics.

Huh? He’s had one draft

Has he made some mistakes? Sure, Velus pick I'm sure he'd like back, but man his overall long term direction is spot on. I can support that 💯

In Poles/Cunningham we trust! 🐻⬇️
Shooting my shot, Dream Job: scout for the Chicago Bears. I'm on the West Coast and couldn't be more serious...
I too want nothing more than to be a scout for the Bears and eventually succeed Ryan Poles 20 years from now (in a Newsome/DeCosta situation and after 10 more SB wins)
Justin giving the game ball to Coach and to Poles will always be a classic
I love the fact that they get down on the field and see players up close.
Thanks poles for letting us see your side of things
In Stone Cold Poles we Trust 🐻⬇️
I'm excited we finally have the right group of guys in management to make it happen!!!
Ownership giving Poles the Keys to the whip is something i thought id never a Bears team do .... Future is bright !!!!
Glad you see it as well! It's very clear Poles has full control & George & Ted have finally slipped into the background & let the guys who understand football run the show! Thank gosh, this is exactly what this organization needed!
So glad we got GMs like Poles and Cunningham! General managers also scout out potential Bears!? That's rare in my book. 🐻⬇️

Time will tell but I hope so. BTW Finks and Vanisi were pretty good GM’s. They built the 85 Bears
@@Tony-r7v The thing that impresses me most about him is that how transparent he is and that's something we didn't have with the last regime
Our future looks bright Chicago! Let's be patient and trust the process. Poles knows this town in hungry for a championship.
The fact that most of this video was shot on a cell phone makes it even cooler. Quality video!
Wow!!! It can't get better than that, thanks Chicago Bears for giving us a great insight on scouting and a little behind the scenes on Poles and Ian's great partnership
The content this new regime puts out is on another level! Thank you for remembering us fans! 💯
Draft gonna be solid i can already tell by how they scout
Dynamic Duo ..been a fan all my life ...this is special...can't wait for off season.. my husband has watched this 2xs...
Glad we have Ryan and Ian, Ian will be a GM in a few years.
Yeah I made this comment earlier, I say 2-3 years & it will suck to lose him but I bet Poles has already thought about a couple of names for when that day comes..
Probably for the Bears. With Phillips leaving I see them promoting Poles to president of football ops and Ian to GM
@@misfits12o this would be amazing
I love the transparency
That was very good no cliches just honest talk that's what people like to hear.
Behind the scenes.... please more of these!
Building trust with college coaches. Love this that’s how you can learn a lot about a player
Usually when the bears are slumping people say. Oh well, at least they get a better draft pick. Well finally there's a gm/coach duo that seems that they're not gonna screw all the picks up and actually build a great team. Love to see it as a bears fan!
Very well done. Love the mutual respect of the staff.
I love this stuff the behind the scenes on how football teams operate and build! So far I have to give Poles a A on what he doing so far!
Poles really putting in the work, I'm so excited
Bears got it right with these guys. 🐻⬇️
You guys are killing it by allowing us a window into the making of a franchise. Thank you.
Man I can’t wait for this! 🔥🔥🔥
Ay love the video but LOVE to see the boss himself on the road. That’s our boy
Good stuff gentleman looking forward to the fruits of this labor

In Poles we Trust! He knows what he is doing

Two of the best making out organization great...

I feel really good about the Bears future
Mr. Poles sure does love his gum when scouting 😂
as someone that wants to be in this field it’s great information to take and use for this line of work in the future
Wow Bears allowing us fans to see what scouting is like. Nice.
Love the insight!
Now this what I’m talking about!!!
There is a pair who know where the team is, know where it has to get to and have a clear strategy on how to do it. Great insight!
The jury is still out on poles but must say he is a breath of fresh air compared to Ryan pace the last 7 years. Poles is not afraid to be front and center to the media and fans.
I mean, would you go in front of the media after Mike Glennon?
@@chetsenior7253 if I was a coward and a bad GM probably. But that was pace in a nutshell.

Keep these coming
With Phillips leaving I see Poles being promoted to president of football ops and Ian picking up GM. They will be a duo for a long time
Great job so far Ryan👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼 I hope we can get some pass rushing, a linebacker, OL, WR, etc.. love Jack Campbell and Jermaine Burton.. keep it up.. great luck in the next draft 🙏

This is what component upper management looks like. They are in the process of building a Championship team.

The boys are out there working
Poles, Hear out Bear Fan channels on there breakdown of who to Draft there perspective with yours
GOD I can’t wait!!!!!!
I get major Billy Beane vibes from Ryan. I mean this as an ultimate compliment.
I love it

Poles will go down as the Bears best G.M in Bears history, you can take that to the bank 🏦 😀

This is sick. I love that we have a young, fresh GM that's committed to transparency

@@jtneverfolds facts💯
Pretty sure they've been a few other places too. Important for the head scouts to interact with their scouts. Bear Down!
Let's go Poles. We believe
Spielman alert!
Did that one area scout at the beginning say Breesee when asked about his top guys?
Much better than picking a guy because of the car they drive. These men know what they are doing.
It starts with a franchise quarterback that box has been checked. From that point on i would build the offensive line with the next two picks then go defense. You can find weapons in free agency or trade. If Justin can get a top 7 oline he will gives this offense a prolific boost.
New Jack GMs. Don't hate, celebrate!!
Poles is not playing for next year OMG THE BEARS GOING TO THE PLAYOFFS
Kind of bummed they passed up on Khalil Shakir. Great wr talent taken in the 5th round by the Bills who are stacked at WR.
Very excited to see this team develop with Poles. 🐻 👇
Nice pink SUV, Chicago.
Make sure you can squeeze in Jack Campbell IL from Iowa somewhere in the draft before Green Bay does
