The Chicago Bears have not made a decision on the future of head coach Lovie Smith.

Bears general manager Jerry Angelo denied a SportsNet/Chicago report that Smith was going to return next season.

“At the end of the year, we sit down, we talk,” Angelo told the Associated Press. “It’s not about money, it’s about doing what we feel we need to do to be a better football team.”

Smith is owed $11 million by the Bears for the 2010 and 2011 seasons.

The Chicago Bears fell to 5-9 on the season after getting trounced Sunday afternoon by the Baltimore Ravens in a game that was delayed due to snow.
