The Bears appear to be nearing the end of their search for a new general manager and head coach, but the process itself hasn’t been an encouraging one.
Chicago has requested second interviews to three head coach candidates at this time — Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and former Lions/Colts head coach Jim Caldwell.
As you can imagine, Bears fans aren’t taking it well.
A big part of that has to do with a rather uninspiring list of finalists for head coach — especially given the final four teams in Super Bowl contention are offensive minds. But it’s the fact that Chicago already has a finalist list for head coach before they’ve even hired a GM that has really irked the fanbase.
After all, any respectable organization knows the GM should be in place first. But this is the Bears.
