I know some thought it would be a nice landing spot for a few potential coaches. Two first round picks, a lot of cap etc. 
 

Seems like some good news for the Panthers

I think they will give him another year

Even if you’re 50/50 about keeping him. You gotta move on you won’t get a perfect storm of having all this draft capital to attract a premier coach again

Honestly Bears haven't been all that bad this year and Fields clearly ain't the answer to me so if he/they can get a QB and more draft capital by trading Fields to build out the OL and holes on D, maybe another WR I think Eberflus could have them in the playoffs next year. I never thought much of him when they hired him but I think he's done a good enough job with them this year for them to keep him around for a new QB era. He inherited Fields.

They have played very respectfully. Good for them.

They can flip the 1st round pick for a 1st round pick next year again and probably more.  Which is honestly the prudent thing to do. Take a bidding war in the top 5 knowing that if you want MHJ you're more than likely able to still get him or Nabers.

Pretty dumb imo

 

You have the #1 overall pick and another top 10 pick. Sounds like a good recruting tool to get a upgrade at HC.

 

Bears gonna Bears.

Fine with me, one less destination for a coach to go.

TBH, I don't really view any of the other openings as competition in the same race.

If you want the most money, no one will beat us. If you want the best situation, we were never in the running in the first place.

It’s gonna be another spicy off-season for us. I know the reports from Josina (I think) said we won’t go after him, but it’s so early to tell that, I don’t think anyone has a clue what we will do. Thanks for the update Scot.

Multiple sources have reported that.

Honestly, I think they're likely right.

More good news...

I think keeping there head coach is a horrible mistake let him go and go get college coach from Michigan
