On Thanksgiving day, Chicago Bears General Manager Ryan Poles unexpectedly parted ways with Matt Eberflus amid concerns regarding his in-game management skills during a match against Detroit Lions. Since then, Ryan Poles and company have taken active steps toward filling Eberflus’ head coaching vacancy; providing substantial updates along the way.
Underdog NFL on X’s Jeremy Fowler revealed on Wednesday that Chicago intended to interview Pete Carroll as their head coach this Thursday; following reports that Mike Vrabel may also be interviewed, this development indicates their next possible move in their search. This news followed reports indicating Chicago intended on interviewing Mike Vrabel as part of Wednesday plans.
Add to that drama an unfortunate development regarding Mike McCarthy of the Dallas Cowboys; reports state they denied Bears permission to interview McCarthy indicating their intent to retain him despite an underwhelming season for most measures.
With these developments, the Bears appear determined to find experienced leadership for their upcoming seasons.
