Pole's needs to go its obvious to any non brain dead human. Go enjoy your franchise punter he/they selected in the foirth round. Most good punter's are undrafted and this dumb ass spent a high selection on one. Then he/they drafted a tackle who spent his/there time blocking economists and doctors from brown and Harvard. And this is the guy your fine with. Your about as savvy as LGBTQ Time Guy.

I've been here over 2 months...yet to experience "Florida Man". But...I'm in Manatee County, not Jacksonville.

Bears GM trying to steer team away from Ben Johnson

If he’s not counter programming that narrative within a day he needs to be fired.

I didn't catch that much of it but apprently Johnson is interested but only with a lot of influence on draft etc.
Poles obviously is not in favor of that.

Falls in line with my rhought that he wouldn't want the job if Poles was here.
Apparently he would take it with promise of a lot of influence.
:

Any HC will openly challenge the way Poles evaluates lineman and will laugh at his imaginary crystal ball he uses that told him to draft project guys like Velus Jones, Dominique Robinson, Amegadjie, and to draft a punter in the 4th round.

Even the NFL's reigning village idiot George must realize that a top HC is going to want to have control over his roster, especially when taking over a roster as poorly constructed as the one he will inherit from Ryan Poles.

The most Bears like outcome is that they whiff on the top candidates and then panic and settle on a guy that is just happy to take the job and will be a nice guy that does not swear.

Color me stupid but why wouldn't a GM want his HC to have BIG voice on who is drafted? Otherwise you are asking a coach to get guys to perform that he doesn't necessarily want. I think we have seen this act MANY times.

‘Smartest guy in the room’ types don’t like to be told anything different than what they believe. It’s an incredibly stupid attitude especially in today’s NFL where everything is so specifically system driven. You almost need the coach to help pick players so they can run their system properly and no one is going to understand the system better than the guy who creates it and runs it.


It’s so frustrating that after 3 years of failure and drafting like shit this organization needs to see several more years of that same shit to say ‘yeah this guy ain’t it’. Why does it take them so damn long to know it’s bad..?

Sir, ‘Florida man’ will enter the chat at some point. Give it time.

Some lady on the score this morning was all in for Ben Johnson. The tie with Poles at BC one point of hers.

I think he is a strong candidate in the mix. I wouldn't be all in when a guy like Vrabel is sitting there.

What is it about Vrabel that convinces you he could be the right option for Williams?

At least these dudes were naming sources lol.. but seriously I don’t read too far into ‘Ben likes that job’ because he’s going to say that about most openings.. it’s the ones he actually sits down with that will clear things up.

I'd like two jobs if I was him too. Get the best offer from both.

The rumor is McDaniels is his guy at the next stop.. I’m not sure thats a ‘spectacular’ pick tbh. Tho I will point out Josh did well with Mac Jones so maybe McDaniels is one of those ‘coordinator’ only guys

Pretty much. It’s ‘lying’ season right now. The Bears and Jags have always been the two rumors with Ben tho

With Belichick off to college and the threat of him coaching against the Patriots neutralized, I think Kraft will feel like he has to get the band back together and bring Vrabel/McDaniels back in. He'll want to take the credit for rescuing the notoriously awful Belichick tree. Whether it works, anyone's guess (probably not).

Ben Johnson would like to coach a team that just inked a 25-year old QB to a deal that would see him with the team for 4 more seasons after this one lest they enter dead cap hell, and who is being out-performed (per game basis) by a rookie as awful as Caleb Williams?

If nothing else, someone should put Mark Brunell on the spot here.

Well, good call a year later. I wanted Harbaugh around this time myself, but Ben a year later works too
