The Chicago Bears are rumored to be considering hiring Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka as their next head coach, a move that has raised eyebrows and concerns among fans and analysts. The author argues that Kafka's lack of experience and the Bears' history of questionable coaching hires make this a potentially disastrous decision.
There were only a few teams worse than the Chicago Bears in 2024. One of them was the New York Giants, whose offense -- like the Bears -- ranked among the worst in the NFL . So, of course it makes sense that Chicago would tap into the Giants' coaching staff to potentially find their next head coach . 30th in yards per game, 28th in passing yards per game, and 31st in points per game Make this make sense.
Someone, anyone, please explain how the Bears and Ryan Poles could possibly believe Kafka is the kind of coaching hire who would rally the locker room and rejuvenate the fan base. If, in some alternate reality, the Bears actually are considering hiring Kafka, it'd be like slamming a hammer onto the final nail in Poles' general manager coffin; it would conjure nightmares of Marc Trestman. It would be a disaster. I'm not sure what about Kafka's resume makes him a head coaching candidate right now. Before joining the Giants' staff in 2022, Kafka was with the Kansas City Chiefs as the quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator. In other words, he held the clipboard for Patrick Mahomes, much like Matt Nagy did before he was named Bears head coach in 2018. We know how that went. Maybe Kafka will one day emerge as a fantastic head coaching candidate, but that time isn't now. And it certainly isn't now for the Chicago Bears. Let's hope someone inside Halas Hall stands up and stops the madness before the Bears make a coaching decision they'll quickly regret
