With the ink still wet on his new, two-year contract with the Bears signed Tuesday, special teams coordinator Dave Toub joined The McNeil and Spiegel Show to discuss the state of the Bears.

Bears Coach Lovie Smith said Monday morning that the Detroit Lions' Matthew Stafford should have been ejected along with D.J. Moore during a rough play, but the real story is the Bears' strong playing that led to victory.
I want to care only that the Bears dismantled and humiliated Detroit, ran their record to 6-3, and established themselves as something more than a fringe postseason contender. But I have been seeing football more through a cloud of anger, revulsion and sadness.
Charles Tillman and Major Wright returned interceptions for touchdowns early in the third quarter, and the Bears picked off Matthew Stafford four times to beat the Detroit Lions 37-13 in a heated game on Sunday.
As he works to return from an ankle injury suffered in Monday's win over the Eagles, Bears wide receiver Devin Hester missed practice Thursday afternoon.
