Scenario 1: Eberflus is retained as HC but fires entire O-Staff, meaning he needs to bring in a new OC and DC. Who you bringing in for both positions?
Scenario 2: Eberflus and the entire coaching staff is fired. Who are you bringing in as HC, OC, and DC?
We’re in the back half of the regular season. Should be starting to get a decent idea of who might be available and who might be desirable. Curious who people would take in either scenario. I’m not savvy to who might be available to offer up my choices.
Scenario 1. My DC of choice would be Ron Riviera. He adds a more aggressive approach to the Cover Two. For OC I’m bringing in Greg Roman. He’s proven he can take QB from point A to point B. The problem becomes can he take a QB further? If you’re giving Fields another year and you should if you’re bringing Flus back, that’s the guy.
Scenario 2. I have two minds on this. I KNOW that Harbaugh would make this team into winners right away. The question would be, does he want to do more than coach? The Bears finally seem to have the proper structure in their organization. Harbaugh might want to change all that. So if they go back to a more traditional coach, Waldron is probably the guy I’d go with. He’s worked for 3 great coaches, Carroll, McVay and Belichick. He would have a fairly seamless transition on offense as his is also based on the Shanahan/McVay model. This is the offense that Poles has been building up and there will be less tearing down. Riviera could still be the DC.
