LOL, turned down.
Sources: Johnson nixes HC jobs, stays with Lions
Ben Johnson is opting to remain with the Lions as their offensive coordinator rather than pursue the head-coaching vacancies with the Commanders and Seahawks, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.www.espn.com
He lost out on several HC jobs and only had 2 opportunities left ie Commanders and Seahawks neither of which he was a lock for. So probably saw the writing on the wall. If he was so gung ho about staying be would not have interviewed and been turned down by Falcons, Panthers and Chargers.
Remydumbass confirmed.

Wrong coaching staff, but Campbell did cut Perriman, oh my, it cost the Lions 2 mill.
What did Claypool cost the Bears again?

Johnson had also interviewed for the head-coaching vacancies with the Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers and Los Angeles Chargers before those jobs were filled by Raheem Morris, Dave Canales and Jim Harbaugh, respectively.
While the abrupt pivot by Johnson was considered "surprising" by several league sources, he was not considered a lock for the Washington job
Again he got beaten out for 3 jobs and was not a lock for the other 2 left.

W-L record is no longer a QB stat. The NFL actually changed that going into 2024, what a coincidence!!

Lets be clear.....CCS ( Bears forum) is for Football talk. Please go to another website for that stuff above. Lets not initiate that perversion at CCS.

The Steelers are 3-0 with JF. And it does not matter how the Steelers WIN with JF.

Yeah it does matter because they're not going to keep him if he keeps playing like this.

Oh so you want to talk about the Steelers okay. Yeah they're s great defense with one of the worst offenses in the NFL led by the worst QB in the NFL over the past 4 years. Mike Tomlin figures out ways to win with some of the worst QBs in the NFL. It will be interesting to see what they can do when they finally get a legit QB instead of QBs that have them amongst the lowest scoring offenses in the NFL like they are again this year.

I remember hearing Wanny on The Score one day, and I think it was last year, but Parkins and Spiegel were asking him about firing Flus. Wanny said that if you look at Chuck Knoll's first three years it wasn't good (it was 12-30). Rooney wouldn't fire him, and the quote about it was, "he hasn't lost the locker room." Flus, despite his poor record, has shown zero signs of losing the locker room.
Now for those of you who breathe primarily through the mouth and drag your knuckles on the ground: No, Wanny was not suggesting that Flus is the next Knoll. No, I am not suggesting that either. What I am suggesting is that George/Warren/Poles are some combination thereof, are not giving a knee-jerk reaction to what is going on.
I would not be surprised if he was fired at the end of the year (won't be midseason, we all know that), but I'm not betting my house on it.

Ok so he didnt withdraw to learn from Campbell. He overestimated his value, was told to fuck off by 3 teams and then took his ball and went home before the other two teams could tell him to eat a dick.

I appreciate Wanny's sentiment but the reality of the NFL today is far different than 65 years ago.
Back then Knoll could act as defacto GM draft his own players and build and develop his own team without having to worry about free agency or the salary cap. He also didn't have the benefit of free agency so your team only got better through patience and development of players year over year.

So is your point that "Knoll" would have lost the locker room if he had to worry about free agency?

They are in the process of losing the locker room.
The team saw what they were capable of in the second half of the year and they're about to be 1-3. This is about to get messy.

No my point is the Bears should have already fired Eberflus and when they finish with a losing record this year whether or not he still has the respect of the players they'll have to fire him.
Then maybe we'll find out if they hired someone in Kevin Warren who has more balls than Ted Phillips.
