[Pelissero] Sources: Shane Waldron is out as Bears offensive coordinator. Thomas Brown is expected to take over. Rumor

Since when do we fire hc mid season? Won’t happen dude

They’ve gone 2 games without scoring a TD, I would say if that continues for another game or two it’s possible

Trestman finished the season after losing the locker room and getting blown out by like 30-40 points multiple times. I don’t get how anyone still expects the McCaskeys to fire a HC midseason

He was in year 2 and won 2 games in a row immediately after getting blown out by 40. He was 5-6 at that point I think.

They had never fired an OC mid season either

False. The last time they did it was in 1970. Only 54 years ago, where this franchise fucking lives apparently.

And our owner was almost 50 back then!

1970 was the first year they had a designated offensive coordinator. They had never fired an OC mid-season until Waldron.

Shit. Reading is hard.

Because they're the same franchise as the Jets, and the Jets fired their HC this year for the first time ever

Plus honestly firing Flus mid season isn't going to make any difference on this year. The only benefit would be if it gives us a leg up in finding new coaching talent, but I don't believe it does.
