Sounds like the same gameplan they've used since Lovie left. Guess they should do it again huh

You mean getting a new coach every 3-5 years?

That's exactly what they'll be doing with Carroll.

Andy Reid is the oldest coach. Pete got 7 years on him.

Matt Nagy, Eberflus
:unimpressed:

Who else was interviewing and coveting either of these guys? I kinda remember Nagy being out there, but Eberflus wasn't some hot name on the coaching market.

:comeon:

Eberflus is 54 years old :gucci: Before Nagy was John Fox.

There was a report a couple weeks ago talking about how Indy was about to fire Eberflus before we scooped him.

I think he's probably too old to be a viable long term coaching decision personally.

obviously he has a proven track record, name value, and would instantly demand respect from the entire locker room. but the bears are DEFINITELY getting a proven offensive head coach for their next hire, which would eliminate pete's chances.

Bears job has Ben Johnson on it if I was a betting man. Pete probably would be a good secondary option though at least for a couple of years.

I'd like to think Johnson is too smart to tie himself to a bad ownership group. Working with Caleb has to be a major incentive but it's not worth the risk IMO. GM prob gonna draft another weapon instead of an o-lineman too lol.

Bears ownership is one of the worst in the league...Ben Johnson would probably be smart to avoid in all honesty. I'm not fully sold on Williams either tbh
