Yet another snippet from Brad Biggs Q&A today. I can't wait to see this new staff's team this Fall. My gut feeling is that the offense could be fun to watch, and Fangio will have that D working at an awesome level. Yes, I am into my "feel good" off-season mode now

Any idea what advantages the Bears thought Nagy had over the other candidates? Specifically vs. Josh McDaniels and Pat Shurmur. — @avgjhon
One advantage Nagy offered after the Chiefs were upset in the wild-card round was that the Bears could hire him immediately. The Patriots are a nine-point favorite over the Jaguars in the AFC Championship Game, so there is a good chance they advance to Super Bowl LII, meaning McDaniels would not be available for another three weeks. Shurmur and the Vikings are also a favorite over the Eagles in the NFC Championship Game, so there would have been a wait to hire them as well. Hearing general manager Ryan Pace talk, I got the feeling he felt he connected best with Nagy. They hit it off from the start and that means a lot when heading into a partnership like this. It’s hard to overlook the wild success McDaniels has had in New England and Shurmur has done a terrific job this season but Pace felt best about Nagy.
