Based on the responses, bears fans would not be pleased lol

 

With a young QB, I'm sure they want an offense guy.  I know I would.

[Hebert19]

I'd guess he wants Dorsey as OC...so that could hurt a bit.

Frazier has to be near the top of teams lists interested in a retread, especially when you look at his body of work in Buffalo and fielding the top ranked defense with no probowlers this year.

 

If we do lose him the silver lining is a guaranteed 3rd round pick and we can probably land Vic Fangio as new DC if we choose to look outside the organization.

I love what Leslie Frazier has done for our defense, and I'm sure he's an outstanding coach

 

But any team that hires him isn't exactly firing up their fanbase and with a young QB needing to be developed, it's hard to see the Bears, or many other teams choosing him as head coach

[gjv001]

Frazier is certainly deserving of a HC position. Would hate to see him go.

I'd hate to see him go, but he deserves another shot. 

 

I hope we suggested Daboll to them. He is a super amazing offensive mind and I think he should be coaching Fields.

Why so he can call the same QB draws and running plays to useless 3rd string RB's over and over?

Yes.. for the Bears..

How are the Bears already looking at Head Coaches?  Don’t they need to hire a GM first?

I’ll take them 2 3rds easily 

 

I'll take the coordinator that has the #1 D. 

[GunnerBill]

He will get interviews. Just look at our defense stats! 

 

Not sure he lands a job but if he does good luck to him. Great dude has done an absolutely brilliant job here.

Traditionally runs a 3-4 so that would be a pretty major change to our scheme. For that reason alone I don't see him as our DC

Fangio would be a great get. 
 

people sort of forget, but a Fangio basically invented the 2-high shell that is the rave.  

[TheFunPolice]

Maybe there IS something to the Dungy-Riddick-Frazier rumor....

 

 

[TBBills]

I really don't see any of the Bills coordinators  getting HC jobs.

McDermott went out of his way to be clear during his post-game presser that this is Frazier's defense.  It's not McDermott's defense.

 

 

I noticed that too. McD seems like a natural teacher/mentor type. I'm guessing he'd like to start a new dynasty: the McDermott coaching tree. Not from an egotistical standpoint, but to know that he's helped people to become what they're capable of being.

Well we get comp picks from it plus McDermott has always been the kind of guy to give everyone credit.

[foreboding]

Leslie is such a class act and, like Daboll, the players love him. I think they will both get HC gigs this year.

True.  Because of the Rooney Rule, certain guys have to get paraded in for interviews for the optics.  Too bad, I always thought that the Rooney Rule hurts the people it was meant to help.

 

It worked out well for Mike Tomlin. Rooney (the son) said that the rule was the only reason they interviewed Tomlin. He interviewed so well that they hired him.

 

Edit: That worked out well for the Steelers too.

Agree. Growth mindset is all about developing leadership.
