“It’d be foolish to just take one offense that you’re accustomed to running and try to adapt it to another team,” Daboll said. “Some of the plays suit, some of the plays don’t suit. So, your job is to go ahead and mix and match and really find the best results for the guys that you’re working with for that particular year.”


As Daboll likes to say, “Plays are plays,” but it’s more than knowing what to call when. In his time in Buffalo, Daboll has become more attuned to the skills of his players, worked to develop a comfort level with them and, perhaps, most importantly, been unafraid to be creative and deviate from what he’s done in the past.


“Once they read man coverage, they sold the run. We call that a run-action pass, low hats, it sells everyone on the run and then with the speed and the techniques of all the receivers versus man coverage, everyone created separation and you got three guys popping open.”

Three guys popping open. On one play. In an NFL game.

Which other teams are rumored to be looking for a coach?

Many thought Russell Wilson would be in a Bears uniform too. You couldn't reason with them last summer.

You have a shit ass take.

The Bears DID try to get Wilson. They were told no at the 11th hour. You talk like the whole thing was pure fiction.

Just because they didn't succeed doesn't mean the attempt didn't happen, genius.

I'd much rather have Roman, just seems like he has a more reputable track record. But if Daboll can bring some of the defensive staff from the Bills I'd be all for it.

I'm pretty sure you were one of the guys I'm referring to. Seems like you're still upset about it.

Wtf does this even mean? Every season teams go after coaches & players and miss out on the opportunity. The Bears actively looked into Wilson this past offseason and more than likely will look into Daboll for HC. That doesn’t mean they will land him. You are special….

I don’t think you can go wrong with either candidate for fixing the offense. But you make a good point if Daboll can bring some guys over.

That’s refreshing to read. I’m excited. Pace will get his third coach. Maybe 3rd times a charm. But I’m no doubt excited to get rid of Nagy and they are looking at real coaches

Would be ok with daboll but Roman, Toub, and Bowles are my top 3
The only problem I have with hiring Toub or
Bowles are the coordinators they bring in. Who does Toub bring in for OC & DC and who does Bowles bring in for OC. The problem with this scenario is that the better OCs are going to get HC jobs or stick with their current teams.

Ditto. Based on his track record, i worry that the Bills success the past couple years if more due to talent and Josh Allen being a unicorn than it is a coach with a history of failure magically being able to turn water into wine.

It just doesn't sit well with me. Idk if he is a victim of circumstance over the years but outside of Buffalo his offenses have never ranked higher than 29th in points. That's alarming.

Their staff will definitely be a key factor but they’ve both been around for a long time and should have plenty of connections. I just don’t want to be pigeon holed into hiring an offensive guy. I want the best overall candidate available.

Roman's got the longer list of QBs and his offensive line/TE background is good for what we have currently on our roster. But the Bills are currently 1st in O/D PPG. Grab some fresh faces on the D coaching side of the ball to make the most of the aging players.

Bruh, logic isn't your strength. The random dots you connect in your head coupled with your butthurt sentiment and inability to let things go is comical.

LOL @ Daboll being the front runner .

Its amazing how people quickly forget what $hit show of a franchise they are dealing with.

You think they are going for Daboll but then you end up with non other but

Leslie Frazier who brings along Ken Dorsey as the OC

Daboll would be my pick but yeah his abilities on defence and as a head coach are unknown but I'd be willing to bet if he was on this teams staff currently our offense would look miles better

I mean it's fine if you want to put together a "dream sheet" of coaches the Bears are going to get. I'm going to wait for more substance before even trying to guess. If Pace is going to be picking...LOL!

...what could go wrong? Just look at the last 35 years.

I completely get where you are coming from. The only reason I lean towards an offensive guy is because of Fields development. And even though Toub or Bowles have their connections, can they bring in the best guy for the job. We hear a lot about the great OCs that will get looks at becoming a HC. But who are the guys in the tier below them? And would Toub or Bowles be able to hire them away from their current teams.
