What do you think? I remember reading about how Jay and Loggains were close, and then we read about how the two guys worked together this off-season to refine the existing O scheme. Jay said they tried to keep what worked in 2015 and then added some things too. But the main point was to not jump to an entirely different scheme. Continuity. Even keeping the same terminology.

Do you think the Bears promoted Loggains to OC due to Jay Cutler wanting him there?

There were a number of articles about the Cutler/Loggains love. But here's just one quick one I dug up with a Google search:

LINK

Cutler enjoyed the best statistical season of his 10-year career in 2015 working closely with Loggains.

"I hate saying this, but we're probably a little more similar than maybe I'd like to be," a smiling Loggains said, drawing laughs. "But I do appreciate his work ethic, his professionalism and I love the way the guy competes."

The offense has been tweaked a bit from last year's unit that was led by Adam Gase, who parlayed his performance into the Miami Dolphins' head coaching position. Even if Gase stayed, subtle changes would have been made. And the new version has more similarities than difference to last year's attack.

"He's kind of like fine wine; he's better with age a little bit," Cutler said of Loggains. "He's getting more of a feel. I think the offense has really come into its own, at least on paper. I feel we've still got some things to clean up a little bit. I think he's getting more comfortable with his role and what the team has and how to use it."

No he is the oc bc fox has a buddy buddy system in place. Claussen here bc be played for fox. Barth here...he played for fox. Loggains here....he was already here working for fox.

Dude loves to bring in his guys no matter how terrible they are.

With our luck they'll do just that - and anoint Loggains as the new HC. Wouldn't that be a living nightmare come true? Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top

He was hoping that Loggains would see what gase did under him and following his gameplan. Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top
