I think the top coaches that will be considered by the bears will be Jim Caldwell, Todd bowels, Doug pederson, Josh McDaniels, The Bills OC, and the Packers OC.

Jim Caldwell, Todd Bowles and the packers OC would be my top three in that order

Lol are we tanking Jets or D kitties style for the next couple of years? Honestly don’t mind sinking to the low if we’re getting new ownership.

Lions up 24-3 on the Cardinals. How will they lose this one? They will try.

Would be such a Bears move to hire one of those three.

Cardinals faded badly last year - I don't trust them at all with how tiny Kyler is.

They got beat up on Monday, pretty much got handed the game against us with all of the INTs/short fields.

I would counter that the Lions earned those penalties imo

Did the refs just rob the Cardinals on that touchdown?

caldwell has two losing seasons as a HC. the first is the year manning was out for the season. the second was his first year with the Lions. He's been to a super bowl and had back to back winning seasons with the lions and went to the playoffs with them.

in between thos two teams he won a super bowl with the ravens as OC

Brady just got picked off with 3 minutes left, pretty much sealing a win for the Saints. After the play, Brady went right up to the Saint's bench, like 6' away, and was yelling at one of the Saint's coaches. Reminded me of the Bears game when they flagged our player for taunting at a key moment. But I guess if you're Tom Brady, the rules get bent a little.

Byron Leftwich is often mentioned, as well as the Northwestern HC Fitzgerald, and the Ohio St. HC (who coached Justin Fields).

Leftwich, I would be against for the same reasons we got snowed by Nagy. He could be floated by talent and his head coach, and it is impossible to judge him as a result of his circumstances. Caldwell Bowles and Pederson appear to be good choices, although less of sure things as I would want to see. We can’t afford any amount of risk anymore

Caldwell would not excite me as a fan, at all. I have no name to recommend but I do know I don't want either Caldwell or Bowles.

Dazz Newsome finally makes the team due to Covid. And Nagy is calling plays tonight. Justin Fields is wearing Kevlar.

If Caldwell were 55 and not in his mid 60s, I'd be down - to win with the damn Lions is a miracle but he's just too old.

Bowles would be again too old, 59 but at least he was a great DC at two different spots - just feels like his ceiling is a Lovie Smith type of run which I really wouldn't want to go through again - so many OCs ruined Jay.

Read on Twitter


Good for Quinn. He's had a weird career but his peaks and valleys have been pretty absurd - 19 sacks with the Rams, we'll see what he winds up with here.
