We have to draft a QBOTF.
Most will say a new head coach will want his to develop his choice at qb. Well, the Bears drafted Williams and fired their head coach AFTER his rookie year. Williams took his lumps with a sub par roster.
Ben Johnson has done a fantastic job in one off season and training camp.
However, their GM attacked the needs of their o-line. They stacked their rb room. Drafted a TE even though they had Kmet and suddenly have one of the best offenses in the league.
So do we stay the course, let Brissett mentor a rookie while filling the holes on the o-line and at running back? If those additions don’t get us contending for a playoff spot then we hire a new head coach.
I think this is the way we will go. Gannon and his staff will have 1 more year, mainly because Bidwill doesn’t want to pay another staff. He will justify it pointing to many injuries and close games. Additions to the roster and returning players will give Gannon what he needs to develop a winning team. Brissett will be our qb. Depending on injuries or how the season unfolds our QBOTF could be starting by week 10.
Not saying this is the route we should take but I just don’t see Bidwill firing the entire staff.
