Chicago Bears request to interview wrong Buffalo Bills coordinatorRyan Heckmanon January 10, 2022 at 10:30 pm

Let’s just say, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Fans are never exactly thrilled to hear from those two, but have no choice to hold some hope that the organization will get the hires correct from here on out. Speaking of which, the Bears have officially requested their first formal interview.

There will be more to come, but being first on the list is at least notable.

The Chicago Bears picked the wrong Buffalo Bills coordinator, Leslie Frazier, for their first interview.

Let’s start with Leslie Frazier, whom the Bears requested to interview Monday afternoon.

The Buffalo Bills did, in fact, lead the NFL in total defense, allowing just 17.0 points per game. Their pass defense was especially stingy, giving up only 163 yards per game through the air.

Frazier is notoriously a defensive guy, and a former Bear as well. He is well-connected and well-respected around the league, and he wouldn’t necessarily be a poor hire.

He’s just not exactly the right hire.

This next hire has to be mainly about Justin Fields, and developing him going forward. This is not saying Frazier couldn’t find the right coordinator, but if the Bears wanted a more qualified quarterback “guru,” so to speak, they should also interview Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll.
