The Bengals loss was a debacle … so I expect all the coaches were feeling that including Leslie..
It’s debatable in my mind whether Leslie “stept away “ or not…the initial story seemed a bit confused about whether he was stepping away for 1 year or walking away from the job completely…is that still up in the air?
Given Leslie’s ambitions to become a HC … this is obviously not the way to go about achieving that goal…but again I wish the man all the best …nothing personal there about a member of the Bears 85 defence ..
My thoughts on McD calling the D this year .. this in my mind will be a positive and an upgrade from last year even with a confused position at MLB… McD is betting on himself…he won’t have a scapegoat to hide behind anymore
Bring on the season..
I’m keen to see how he goes if he has another gig …I think his time has come and gone … that may sound blunt but I can also respect his long career as a player and coach
I recall that we also had a disagreement immediately after the playoff loss (Cincy) about whether they should keep him or move him on … I certainly don’t regret the decision made.
The NFL is not about what you have done over the course of your career but what you can do now …
He isn’t exactly a sexy pick for some young OC trying to get hired to a HC gig to be sprouting off about in his interview…
Do you expect him to have success if he gets another gig?
