Multiple people have questioned Ben Johnsons skills as a “leader” too for what it’s worth.
Agree, and his handling of his interviews last year felt McDaniels like. He has a very talented offense too, but he is a very very good play caller. I think he's earned a chance, but he should not be rubber stamped. I am hoping he can grab Dennis Allen for D, as he will need help. I don't like first time head coaches who are calling plays, it's tough.

Yes that’s worrisome too. Really want a HC that commands respect, has game management skills, pays attention to the minute details and can hire the right coordinators.

That is Vrabel. But he wanted GM power in Tennessee and you’re always going to be replacing OC’s with him.

There is no slam dunk Andy Reid type hire unfortunately

Speculation season is when this board is at its worst.

Ya'll come up with the dumbest shit.

The Commanders are 15th in the NFL in passing offense. There's nothing Kingsbury has done to deserve becoming the new head coach.

So you may not realize this but you can run the ball too!

Honest to god, I think I would rather see them give strong consideration to McCarthy than Kingsbury. I don't really want either at this point in their careers.

Oh yeah! Let's do as much as we can to take the ball out of Caleb's hands so he's not getting the ball to Moore Odunze and Kmet. Let's just run the ball like we have for the 75 years and bring in a QB like Kyle Orton.

Running the ball behind cast off oline for 1-2 yards does nothing for the pass game, that’s Bears football.

If you pay attention though, teams like the Packers, Eagles, 49ers, Ravens they are consistent in the air because they are GREAT at running the ball.

So it’s the OC’s fault the defense gave up 30+?

The offense scored 26
You weren't paying attention to that game. The offense was inept until like the last 4 minutes in desperation time. I think they had 13 points at that time. I think they only had 6 points in the first 3 quarters

It's almost like several of us weren't just going back and forth about that in the last couple of pages. Why do you always come in like such an arrogant prick? Read a thread before you start lashing out at invisible people.

Oh yeah, I'm aware. It was a disaster. I am not at all concerned the Bears will hire him, but he is in about last place of candidates I would want.
Kingsbury record with cardinals.

2019 - 5-10-1
2020 - 8-8
2021 - 11-6. they went to the playoffs and lost in the 1st round to the eventual Super Champion Rams.

He got better every year and took them to the playoffs in his 3rd year.

Signed an extension in 2022 and went 4-13 and got fired. Kyler Murray only played in 11 games that season.

Don't know if anyone remembers but many blamed Kyler Murray as part of the problem with him being seeing multiple times yelling at Kingsbury from the field and on the sidelines.

It’s obvious the guy can’t handle a locker room of professionals, yet Bears fans still want him because a weak leader is what this team needs! (Amazing after the disasters of Eberflus & Trestman)
Hmmmmmm i haven't read any posts with anyone saying they want him. Can you point me to those please? If there actually are any of course.
