Even though there's no HC opening, it doesn't stop the Agenda Drums:

I’m told the Chicago #Bears are expected to have interest in #Commanders assistant head coach/ offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, among others, with general knowledge that current HC Matt Eberflus is under evaluation with the team at 4-8, per source.

looking at various offense efficiency stats out there, they're in the bottom of the top half/top of the bottom half of the league (12-20 range).
Not sure where you expect them to be based on their offensive roster.

Isn’t Howell tops in the league in all passing statistics?

Howell does not suck. His oline blows and he’s still putting up numbers. His weapons are just ok outside of Scary Terry. The Dolphins were laughing about how easy they were to scheme for.

quote:

“All you really have to do to defend this team is just be disciplined,” Long said via Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. “They kind of struggle with the routine parts. When we watched them play, their best stuff was when [Sam] Howell was scrambling, or they moved the pocket and just let him try to make plays. There’s gonna be rollouts and breaking the pocket, plaster. But if you just stay on your man or find somebody when you don’t have nobody, it’s really easy to defeat stuff like that.”


quote:

Howell has been excellent off-schedule. Bieniemy doesn’t move the pocket enough for Howell, often keeping him in shotgun. Long wasn’t done. He had the following to say about the receivers. ‘They have some good dudes,” he said. “Terry [McLaurin], [Curtis] Samuel is cool, too. But I wouldn’t say that they have a dominant dude that you come in saying, ‘Oh, we gotta make sure to stop bro.’ I say that respectfully, too.'”

I can't say how good or bad of an OC he is but honestly Washington has almost no real offensive threats on their team for him to work with and Howell at least seems to be improving to some extent. I don't think he's a franchise QB but he has improved.

Isn't he considered to be a jackass? I thought that's what kept him out of HC jobs so far? IIRC there was talk about him going to CU at one point, but he'd burned so many bridges there that it was a non-starter.

That and the giant sex/drig scandal from when he was at Colorado. Pretty sure he has some personal issues too.

The Bears have consciously tried to hire boring yes-men since they fired Ditka. Most of their coaches over the last three decades have been like corpses in front of the media.

It has also been reported locally that team president Kevin Warren and Harbaugh don't like each other from when Warren was B1G commissioner.

That said, the Bears might be desperate enough to overlook all of that. One of the last things George Halas did was take a chance on Ditka. Maybe Virginia McCaskey tells the front office to suck it up and get Harbaugh.

Why would anyone want to hire Eric Bieniemy? Has he excelled anywhere in his career?
