Of course that's Tony Dungy and Lovie Smith.
Dungy was Tampa Bay's head coach prior to being fired in favor of Bill Parcells--oops.
In favor of Steve Spurrier--oops.
In favor of Marvin Lewis--oops.
In favor of Jon Gruden, actually.
Lovie Smith coached linebackers with the Bucs under Dungy until he was lured away by St. Louis in 2001 to improve their erratic defense.
Both coaches are class guys. I was sorry to see each one leave Tampa Bay (and if Parcells had been given the coaching job after Dungy I'd have been wearing Colts gear to the games).
I can't stand the Bears, which is a carryover from the Bucs' years in the NFC Central.
The Bears have the better defense, but they're vulnerable to the pass.
If the Colts--especially Peyton Manning--avoid turnovers, they should win the game as the Saints were unable to do this past Sunday.
The Bears have a decent shot to win if they keep the turnover pipeline open. The Colts played well against New England's running game; I think that the Bears will give them a better test in that department.
Go Colts.
