It’s getting very loud in Chicago proper now for Bears head coach Matt Eberflus.
After successful a mixed 10 video games over the earlier two seasons earlier than 2024, the previous defensive coordinator is getting a number of criticism.
By 9 video games this yr, the Bears are 4-5 and are presently driving a three-game shedding streak.
If issues don’t finish effectively for Eberflus this season, ESPN analyst Joe Fortenbaugh believes the Bears ought to rent a brand new coach if he’s out there subsequent offseason.
“If he’s available, the No. 1 candidate for the job in Chicago, if he’s available, Kevin Stefanski,” Fortenbaugh stated Tuesday on Carlin vs. Joe.
This might be an attention-grabbing transfer for either side if it ever got here to fruition.
To begin with, the Browns have been a giant disappointment this season, and that may all the time be the accountability of the pinnacle coach.
Nonetheless, beginning quarterback Deshaun Watson has not performed as much as his contract, star operating again Nick Chubb was not wholesome for a giant chunk of the season, and the crew did promote two of its higher gamers earlier than the commerce deadline in extensive receiver Amari Cooper and edge-rusher Za’Darius Smith.
Earlier than this season, Stefanski was considered one of many league’s higher coaches.
He has guided this Browns crew by adversity to a number of 11-win seasons.
That might be a steal if the Bears needed to convey him in.
The one downside is that Cleveland might not be inclined to let him go after what he has completed in his tenure and what he has needed to work with this season.
