Aight.... I'm excited hearing this Reich might get canned talk.... Who's your head coach target?

Here's the thing.... If Reich is fired, we cannot hire a permanent until after the season.  The only real options would be to promote either Evero or Brown.  IF Evero saw this as an opportunity, and was basically promised the job (Violation of the Rooney Rule BTW) he would be the logical choice.  What Frank lacks is fire and demanding leadership.  Wilks would have these guys ready to run through a wall, and made sure his staff was adequately prepared.  He then let his coordinators cook on their own.

The issue with hiring an offensive guru as the HC is that he will want to focus on  play calling and be derelict to the CEO aspect of a HC.  Frankly, pun intended, I feel that is the case here.  Frank is overwhelmed and cannot fully perform the functions of his job fully.  The idea of collaboration is great in the business world, but even then, you need a leader to make decisions to achieve action items rather than just mire around in the brainstorming/sharing portion of the process.

These players need to be led period.  Frank's inability to acknowledge his way is not currently successful and refusal to adapt has resulted in players on the team not accepting his leadership on offense.  Evero has that mentality to lead, you can see the influence of his military upbringing in how he carries himself and how he prepares himself and the defense.

Cam need to come back and give the old pig and chicken speech to the offense.

Brown wouldn’t get promoted. He hasn’t even called plays in the NFL before. He was a position coach prior.

Would be Evero, Tabor, Jim Caldwell, or (god help us) Dom.

I just can't believe that he'd fire a guy in the middle of his first season. 

 

As for Head Coach, I think whoever eventually hires Ben Johnson will be in a great position to win big.

He’ll be the Bears coach and get Caleb Williams and Harrison Jr

Here's how I want it to play out. Reich and Fitterer are canned during our BYE week after we go 0-6 (we not beating the Lions or Dolphins). Evero gets a full 11 games to show what he's about. He actually lets Thomas Brown call plays and implements a lil of his scheme during the bye week. If we still look like sh*t at end of season, go offer Ben Johnson a contract he can't say no to. Boom.

I agree, but I doubt Evero would do that. He saw what happened to Wilkes after Wilkes did a decent job as an interim.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
