****2024-25 Chicago Bears Thread 💩****

No. As a fallback option, sure. But first choice needs to be someone with an offensive background to help the young qb.

The problem with hiring a defensive guy is that if he nails the OC hire, that guy likely moves on after a year or two and you have to start over again. Not to mention the bears just tried this with eberflus.

I don't want another conservative coach in charge of one of my football teams.

Harbaugh did NOT want the Bears job. He had no interest in it.

Due to Kevin Warren or the ownership?

Ownership according to Hub Arkush who is friends with Harbaugh - both Michigan guys. He has said for years that Harbaugh doesn't want the Bears job.

I don’t believe Warren was in the picture when eberflus was hired.

Harbaugh would have been a great short term but likely bad long term hire. He leaves a mess behind everywhere he goes bc he's 2/3rds nuts.

Right, I just felt like if the Bears could have landed him last year, they would have kicked flus to the curb

Maybe; as others said I’m not sure if the interest was mutual or not.

I hated that they did just well enough down the stretch last year to rationalize bringing Eberflus back.
