Goalposts moved. Your comment was about calling plays. Brown was an Asst HC with McVay when they won a Super Bowl if you are going to talk about non-play calling roles.

There is no goal post moved
The guy shouldn't be the HC for the bears next year based on 2 games as OC calling games at home.
He has zero track record and not a single person around here pounded the table for him as OC 10 months ago; let alone knew who the hell he was.
It's almost as fantasy as all the fire fluberbus in season chatter......I say almost, because the bears mgmt is dumb enough to hire him......
Prob immediately after they fire fluberbus and Poles on black Monday and 45 days before they hire a new gm....because

Yes you have. Your comment was about calling plays. Andy Reid called 0 plays before becoming a head coach. Instead of addressing that fact you then tried to talk about Reid's non play calling experience which has **** all to do with the fact he didnt actually call plays.
Once again no one has said make him the HC after 2 games. Like if you want to debate, then debate the actual topic. Don't make up shit that no one said.

Ironic since you're posting in a thread literally titled "Thomas Brown for Head Coach"

Can you read at a 5th grade level? The OP is as follows.
The bold clearly says to close out the season ie not after 1 or 2 games but at the end of the season. That would be 8 games or about half a season's worth of games.
So again stop making shit up and read.

Now screenshot this thread title....and then share the other thread titles that say essentially the same thing.
If I squinted hard enough and they broke out yards/points/wins last 6 games.....I'd almost get on board with him being the OC for a guy like Vrabel (once all the offensive HC turned down the bears job for another)

So you just read headlines and not the actual OP? That explains a lot.
The OP in this thread made it clear it was dependent on Caleb playing well to close out the season and not just based on 1 oe 2 games. Also don't give a shit about what troll threads say. Go cry about them in those threads.

Lions players do not view him as a Beta, although, anyone would be a Beta next to CampbellFeel free to ask the Lions players why they don't have Johnson ranked higher especially when Aaron Glenn was voted the No 1 DC and the Lions ST coach was voted 4th.
NFLPA survey identifies NFL's top coordinators
The Lions' Aaron Glenn, the Dolphins' Frank Smith and the Cowboys' John Fassel are the top-ranked defensive, offensive and special teams coordinators in the NFL, according to a survey of NFL players conducted by the players' union.www.espn.com
Also, the vote was last season when Brown was still with Panthers so nothing to do with Bears.
Could be Johnson is just a beta so the players don't really view him as leadership material. I mean he doesn't scream confident when he has all these stipulations to being a HC because he is worried about failure.
Then again could just be the Lions players are dumbfucks which there is ample evidence of that as well.

It’s really not that difficult. The Bears should hire Bill Belichick and retain Thomas Brown as OC.
Brown can take over HC duties when Bill retires after he breaks the NFL record. Great opportunity for him too. He’ll end up having McVay & Belichick as mentors. Unreal.

Belichick is making $25 million/year for his halftime shows and other bullshit. Why would he take relative peanuts to hc here?

Also Bills.
Also Bengals (this year notwithstanding).
Also—let’s not forget—Chiefs.
People act like it’s impossible for a historically shitty team to hit it lucky, but we’ve seen it happen multiple times.

Still a lot of time left to figure out what Thomas Brown is and whether he’s actually worthy of OC or more.
I kinda like this idea, but it requires the Bears NOT to name Brown as interim HC (not that they would fire Flus mid season anyway), because there’s no way a guy sticks around for a lesser job after being the interim head coach. It just doesn’t work that way.

It’s widely known that he wants to coach again and he’s only 16 wins away from the NFL record.
“Coaching is in his blood. He wants this,” a person close to Belichick told The Athletic over text.
Bill Belichick reportedly wants to return to coaching in 2025 after season as NFL analyst
Belichick has spent the last few months appearing on every NFL show and podcast known to man, but his passion remains on the sideline.
sports.yahoo.com
He was rumored to have interest in the Bears last year, but Poles didn’t want to move on from Eberflus. At times he’s been critical of how Poles has built the roster, but it’s clear he’s done his homework on the Bears.

Agreed 100%. The last 5 games are tough - @ SF, @ Min, DET, SEA, @GB. If he goes 1-4 in that stretch, would that make him a failure? Let Flus take those L's and leave Brown to focus on fixing the offense. If the offense/Caleb continues to improve, then he will be up there with Johnson/Brady/Coen as the top OC names for the 2025 cycle
