Schefty just said that Johnson will be signed mid-week at latest.
This is going to happen fast.

Yea, one of mighty joe youngs shitty twitter sources leaked that first

Because no one guessed a guy with 3 choices would make a decision pretty fast once he's finally able to interview lol

I expect him to be hired on friday

Maybe eddie george has interest as being a RB coach or some shit?

He's only getting paid 400k to coach in college

Ok, but there's more than just that one pointless interview. Bears are interviewing 17 candidates and people are acting as EG is somehow the next HC.
I’ve already said 80% of the requested interviews were pointless.

Just guesses.

BJ should hopefully make his choice by friday then the rest of the dominoes will fall quick. I'm not sure how many teams are holding out for joe brady or kliff.

Friday is when I heard BJ will make his decision. He will take final in-office interviews with both the Bears and Raiders according to the rumors yesterday.

WOW amazing stuff there. He's meeting in person with the top 2 teams he has interest in?

Schefty just implied that he won't be going to Vegas, then Jax, then here.
He knows what he is doing and there won't be any dicking around.

Who said they did. George could have leaked it to Glazer at that point to get as much media coverage of it as possible. Glazer could be doing George a solid by leaking it right after the game with millions watching.

So you are assuming the Bears chose the timing of the announcement. We dont know how Glazer got his info and there are plenty of times when things leak that the team doesnt want known at that time.
Now your just doing that @remy thing. How would NFL fans hearing EG is being interviewed be doing him a solid?

He won't or he will? Ie, was that a typo?

Seems like a typo.

If he's ending with the Bears that's a good sign.

From what I've been reading, He absolutely will not be one of those who will agree not to leave the building and be convinced that way.

He wants to give everyone a fair shot and then he'll sit down and make his decision by Friday.

We will see if that holds up.

I’m not a big fan of the, Ben Johnson, “won’t go to the Raiders because of the other teams” thought. Maybe that’s what he wants.

Every team does not, in fact, announce a Rooney Rule interview minutes after a top candidate becomes available. The Raiders became compliant Friday before the divisional playoff round, the Jags have done only virtual interviews and haven't panicked to do token in person interviews moments after BJ became available.
The Pats did. Everyone knew they wanted Vrabel. They certainly weren't interested in Pep.

But it isnt pointless if they are using the HC interview to assess his abilities for another job or future possibilities or to just see if he has any great ideas about how to run the Bears.

Your statement was for them to just let the HC make the call and the point is the Bears have interviewed people before in advance of the main decision maker and also interviewed people before for one job and then hired them for another.
So the Bears are interviewing 17 people to get great ideas on how to run the Bears? Thats a ridiculous statement.

The Bears have interviewed potentialHC’s to be HC and OCs to be OCs or lesser positional coaches. Who have they interviewed for a HC for that person to take a lesser role for the team?

I was just going to post this. You beat me to the punch with this scoop. Who leaked it to you? Curious if we have the same source.

The Rooney rule interviews were thinly veiled but not made in a weeks long avoidable panic like the Bears was.
