The Deuce

Then odd to have him listed as "requested" and not "accepted"

No. He's interviewing for the job
"
But semantics.
Previous Message
The Bears don't need to formally request an interview for him but they've made clear he has an interview.
They can interview him at any time anywhere.

I haven't heard anything. Seems like Jerry's hands-on approach would be a turn-off.

January 16, 2025, 10:56:19
Jerry is also massively cheap when it comes to coaches.

VIV

so the bears flew mccarthy in on a private jet. what's going to happen if the saints offer him
-
Ari Gold
January 15, 2025, 15:35:13
Hopefully the saints save us and hire him. *

In previous years the Bears flew candidates in on coach. This year they're using private jets*

He talked about it on the St. Brown bros podcast
-
CanHartlebHireSnider

Are you asking how the organization that didn't allow him to talk to the passing game coordinator
-
longsnapper
January 15, 2025, 9:04:48
forget about the decison. just keeping him in the loop as to how things are going to play out?*
-
Ari Gold
January 15, 2025, 9:45:47
bold of you to assume that the people in the loop have any idea how things are going to play out*
-
Sammich
January 15, 2025, 10:46:41
In the Loop, plus maybe 6-8 blocks in all directions.

FWIW Bears jumped up to -250 overnight to get Ben Johnson per Joe Ostrowski
-
illini21
January 15, 2025, 7:16:20
Which is interesting because all day yesterday there was Ben Johnson to the Raiders buzz*
-
Carl Spackler
January 15, 2025, 7:18:03
Just my theory: these betting sites really have no insider info*
-
longsnapper
January 15, 2025, 7:25:57
maybe the betting sites don't, but you're naive if you don't think others do.*
-
Ari Gold
January 15, 2025, 9:47:04
Yeah I think that’s right. Thought the buzz yesterday would move the line the other way*
-
Carl Spackler
January 15, 2025, 8:48:08
The betting sites are just reacting to wagering
-
GMAW
January 15, 2025, 7:45:43
Yes it’s mostly just a feedback loop
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 15, 2025, 9:58:38
Bears completed interview with David Shaw per Bears Twix, Rooney Rule satisfied
-
DanSaint
January 14, 2025, 20:02:18
They’ve more than satisfied that already*
-
OB25
January 14, 2025, 20:10:40
They need two external in person interviews*
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 20:13:38
Ah ok, I didn’t know the in-person part*
-
OB25
January 14, 2025, 20:36:46
Yeah the Patriots pumped out Pep Hamilton and Byron Leftwich in a day
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 20:40:31
I don't think Thomas Brown counts because he's an internal candidate
-
DanSaint
January 14, 2025, 20:13:03
I didn’t realize Shaw is employed by the Broncos so this seems like it was virtual
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 20:22:06
that'd be my concern if I were a Bears fan. McCarthy is a "settling" candidate
-
DanSaint
January 14, 2025, 20:25:44
i don't think he has a high floor at all*
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 20:27:38
He has 9-8 or 10-7 written all over him. I guess that’s kinda high*
-
MC
January 14, 2025, 20:31:03
The Bears have had one season of more than 8 wins ONCE since Lovie was fired for 10-6
-
PapaDels
January 14, 2025, 20:35:43
not arguing that at all. in fact...I firmly believe Bears will not win with the family owning
-
DanSaint
January 14, 2025, 20:43:19
if he coaches the bears? 7-10, 7-10, 5-12, fired. *
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 20:35:06
Surely he could do better than Eberflus and reach 8 wins once. You think he would be Fox bad?
-
MC
January 14, 2025, 20:44:44
that's not quite as bad as john fox, but yeah, i think mccarthy would be a bad hire
-
VIV
January 15, 2025, 9:59:56
by high floor I think the Bears would be semi competitive. But wouldn't be in any position to win
-
DanSaint
January 14, 2025, 20:33:24
Yeah I’m with you. McCarthy isn’t a bad coach but he’s not good neither.
-
MC
January 14, 2025, 20:36:26
Was Shaw in person? If not then it’s not satisified
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 20:16:14
That I wasn't sure of. Reading it, i was under the impression it was in person
-
DanSaint
January 14, 2025, 20:24:30
johnson and mccarthy pretty much tied on kalshi; johnson the clear favorite for the raiders.*

McCarthy interviewing at Halas Hall tomorrow*
-
OB25
January 14, 2025, 12:38:07
listening to WMVP and them rationalizing/defending/encouraging McCarthy as a candidate
-
IlliniSax05
January 15, 2025, 7:44:30
For those with more robust NFL Twitter connections: anyone else interested in McCarthy? *
-
osklister
January 14, 2025, 14:55:14
I wasn't really worried at first that he was a serious candidate
-
illini21
January 14, 2025, 13:11:23
He's not who I'd pick, but there are worse candidates on this long-ass list*
-
AintHatin
January 14, 2025, 13:29:23
he literally lied to get the cowboys job. *
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 13:40:12
I think lying is expected. Admitting to in your introductory press conference is not.
-
Chuck Woodaby
January 14, 2025, 14:09:15
maybe he was visited by the ghost of George O'Leary just before the presser*
-
Sammich
January 14, 2025, 14:47:41
Agreed. He’s mid to me
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 13:36:56
Also I think Todd Monken has jumped to #2 on my list from #3
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 13:52:05
Heh, we're on the same wavelength here, he's now at 2 for me as well.
-
Carl Spackler
January 14, 2025, 13:58:25
Definitely do not want Flores either
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 14:07:02
Agreed that I'd take him over any of the defensive coaches.*
-
Carl Spackler
January 14, 2025, 13:47:05
definitely give me glenn and flores over him. not weaver. definitely not chico. *
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 13:51:36
Why do you like Glenn? His defenses have never been good.
-
Carl Spackler
January 14, 2025, 13:56:52
high reputation as a "leader of men" type. made great strides with the lions defense
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 14:09:38
If I'm hiring a DC, he'd better have had awesome defenses for awhile.
-
Carl Spackler
January 14, 2025, 15:21:56
That’s fair. I’d still rather take the swing on the unknown than McCarthy. *
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 15:24:03
They were comparing him to Fox on the Score this morning.
-
AintHatin
January 14, 2025, 13:43:14
rodgers said it was clements that developed him, not mccarthy*
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 13:46:12
It's a fair nit.
-
AintHatin
January 14, 2025, 14:43:04
to me, he's a known quantity. i don't think he's even a top-half-of-the-nfl coach

what are the chances they are just interviewing him to get insight into what they can do better/?
-
IlliniSax05
January 14, 2025, 13:03:29
I think interviewing at Halas Hall means he’s a serious candidate
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 13:06:49
is he the first one in-person?*
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 12:51:36
No Rivera was in person Sunday. He’s the 2nd.
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 12:54:05
i can't believe they interviewed him*
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 12:55:06
Rivera? McCaskeys love him and he checked a box
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 12:55:57
that's fair. i'm reaching the point of being defeatist about the whole thing.

VIV
January 14, 2025, 13:04:44
That should be your default setting at this point.*

January 14, 2025, 13:24:41
Rivera was in-person*
-
AintHatin
January 14, 2025, 12:53:33
1st day he’s available too. Had to make sure to get him in the door
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 14, 2025, 12:39:34
i hate this so much*
-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 12:52:22
It’s gonna be McCarthy or Johnson, IMO*
-
OB25
January 14, 2025, 12:53:24
Replace Johnson with Rivera*
-
bjl63
January 14, 2025, 12:55:52

-
VIV
January 14, 2025, 12:55:42
A twitter stat I hope is true - Gerald Everett and Mercedes Lewis accounted for negative
-
gvibes
January 13, 2025, 22:13:42
Saw that too. Look at Gerald Everett's yearly receiving yardage totals
-
HamptonSki

-
Ari Gold
January 14, 2025, 13:27:10
i really can’t remember them being involved in any positive plays so probably true.*

-
PapaDels
January 13, 2025, 20:49:04
Cowboys if you’re ok with Jerry Jones micromanaging you. Bears if not. *
-
VIV

Agreed.*
-
PapaDels
January 13, 2025, 21:15:36
Bears.*

-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 13, 2025, 20:24:25
Trade Dak to Vegas for pick 6. Trade 6 and 12 to CLE for pick 2. *
-
VIV
January 13, 2025, 20:27:42
doesn’t he have a huge cap number and no trade?*
-
Ari Gold
January 13, 2025, 20:29:43
The cap isn’t real and NTCs can be waived. *
-
VIV
January 13, 2025, 20:33:37
Dak has a $90 million cap hit and an NTC
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 13, 2025, 20:29:01
The cap isn’t real and NTCs can be waived. *
-
VIV
January 13, 2025, 20:31:59
Also, the raiders have $92M in cap space. *
-
VIV
January 13, 2025, 20:34:23
Sure they can be waived but it gives the player control
-
CanHartlebHireSnider

-
Warrin'_Illini
January 13, 2025, 15:51:14
Maybe. Who knows if they would have actually done it.
-
Carl Spackler
January 13, 2025, 15:54:16
He is. He’s also the guy that fist bumped Poles after he traded down and passed on Carter*
-

If the Lions make the Super Bowl they can’t interview him until after the Super Bowl*

That doesn’t appear to be true. Can interview him the first of the 2 SB weeks*

-
IlliniSax05
January 13, 2025, 11:33:42
The Bears are a very insular organization. They deal with people they know and trust
-
CanHartlebHireSnider
January 13, 2025, 11:40:22

The wide net I might have issue with but there's really nothing more the Bears can do.
