There’s no way they will take someone without NFL head coaching experience. Fitz is here to stay.

Frazier deserve another chance after teh QBs he had to deal with in MN. The Bears... would not be that fair chance.

You know this is the Bears here, kidding

Please please take Fitz so he can end up getting fired in a year and he can end up being an analyst.

Surprised that the famous Chicago based knower of all things football known as corbi isn’t a leading candidate.

I'm sure he is in his own mind

I've actually not seen Fitz's name come up consistently in articles speculating on the Bears' head coaching search - even saw one recently where he wasn't one of 27 candidates that were mentioned. It's funny how fickle this whole process can be, and how timing is everything. I mean...whether you're angry with Fitz after this season or not, is he really that much different of a coach than he was one or two or five seasons ago?

Ironically, seeing Kafka's name come up regularly, albeit as a longshot. Very cool to see him doing so well in the NFL coaching ranks.

On the WBBM Newsradio 780 website, an article by Chris Emma (from The Score 670 AM) does list Fitz as a candidate. IMHO it is highly unlikely Fitz would actually be offered the job

He will not consider the pros until his last son is college bound.

Whoever becomes the next Bears coach, would Kafka "jump ship" to become the Bears OC (or QB coach) ? He is a native Chicagoan so presumably was a Bears fan at one time .

OTOH for his mental health it probably would be best for him to remain with the Chiefs..as long as McCaskey is in control the Bears are likley doomed to be perpetually mediocre(at best)

It’s gonna be Flores. I’m still pissed Miami let him go. Hopefully his schtick doesn’t wear out his welcome in Chicago — he’s a good coach.

Eh. He’ll listen, especially if it is the Bears. The question is who might want to actually talk to him.

 

[Smolmania]

It would appear that Flores' issue in Miami was an inability to bring in coordinators. Perhaps Kafka could come "home" as OC? I for one would love to see a competent Belichikian head coach in Chicago. There appears to be some real talent on that side of the ball for Flores to utilize.

Good coach but abrasive personality. 4 OC in 3 years and reportedly was hated By Tua and GM. That’s not exactly a formula I think makes sense for the Bears given that how Justin Fields is handled is the key to their future success. I doubt he is the guy. I really think Harbaugh is the best fit for the Bears but there are several other good candidates.

Noteworthy that Emma used to cover Northwestern for one of the other fan sites, so it's natural that Fitz would be on his mind...not saying Fitz has been completely nixed from media conversation, but this time a year ago he would have been in every. single. article.
