    It's been a busy day at Halas Hall, and new head coach Marc Trestman is already making significant changes to the Chicago Bears coaching staff. Specifically, nearly a complete overhaul.

    The team's official Twitter account reports that offensive coordinator Mike Tice, LB Coach Bob Babich, QB Coach Jeremy Bates, TE Coach Mike Debord, WR Coach Darryl Drake, OL Coach Tim Holt, and RB Coach Tim Spencer were informed they won't be retained.

    Earlier today, we learned that defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli would not be re-joining the team in 2013, but that was a decision he made himself, not Trestman.

    Definitely the right move. This team needs to start over with a new mindset and a fresh view of how to attack the game.
