Report: Bills DC Leslie Frazier linked to Bears head coaching job

There’s not much to be hopeful about with the Chicago Bears right now, with the exception of rookie quarterback Justin Fields, as Chicago sits at 4-8 and on the precipice of a head coaching change.

The expectation is Matt Nagy will be relieved of his coaching
duties by season’s end, if not sooner. And there are already a number of
potential coaching candidates being linked to the Bears, including
Byron Leftwich, Brian Daboll and Josh McDaniels.
But there’s another name gaining traction with the Bears, according to ESPN’s Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler: Bills defensive coordinator — and former Chicago Bear — Leslie Frazier.

There’s
a fair bit of smoke connecting Bills defensive coordinator Leslie
Frazier to Chicago. The question then would be who he would bring as
offensive coordinator to oversee the development of Fields. Current
Bills quarterbacks coach Ken Dorsey could be a candidate, though he is
also a candidate to get the Bills’ offensive coordinator job if the
current holder of that job, Brian Daboll, gets a head-coaching job
elsewhere. Daboll remains high on the list of candidates expected to get
interviews this time around, as he was last year.

A
new rule this season is that teams can begin interviewing head coaches
two weeks before the end of the regular season, assuming the head coach
is no longer employed by the team.
The
Bears have never fired a head coach midseason, but if Chicago gets
blown out by the Packers on Sunday Night Football, perhaps that changes.

Bears still get to play the Vikings twice...

I can't see Les getting another HC opportunity - and this from someone who respects and admires him greatly as a person

Who knows? Maybe a second go around could be the charm. Belichick got a second chance. Not saying that Frazier is equivalent to him but I am sure he has learned a lot along the way

Well, "I'll have to look at the tape" before I comment on this.
In any case those are "correctable mistakes"

[Guest]

They won't, but I would LOL if the Bears hired Les. Imagine having a young QB you need to develop and thinking Les is the guy. No chance they do it but great for us if they do.

In our case it was  “missed opportunities”…!  B)

Frazier is one of those guys who’s “paid his dues”. If he could repeat his D in Chicago it’d be a nasty two games.

Hope this is true
