New head coach for 2025 - who should they hire?

You're not suggesting that the Bears will make another bad OC hire, are you?

Yeah, there's zero reason to believe they won't chose the wrong guy yet again.

You have to look at what Poles got with his lucky two #1 picks compared to the players he passed over in the draft.  We need a couple more years to fully expose that.  Same applies to Smith, Edmunds, Davis, Claypool deals.  He tried to trade Davis this week and even offered to eat some of the money but no takers.

I should have said Daniels winning OROTY depends on avoiding injury.  I wouldn’t bet against him.

Oh I think he will win OROY.  My comments were more long term.  With his physique and playing style, I don't see Daniels being built for the long haul.

Anyone here pique your interest?

Also has a list of Special Teams Coords who might be ready for a jump to HC as well as non OCs/DCs who might be moving up into those positions, giving them a head start on future HC-ing positions.
