The Chicago Bears have been living up to their word of conducting a wide-ranging search for their next head coach. With interviewing a list that has at least 14 names on it, the Bears won’t be hard-pressed to find their next coach amongst one of them.
So far, the Bears top two candidates are down to former Dallas Cowboys Head Coach Mike McCarthy and current Detroit Lions Offensive Coordinator Ben Johnson.
The Bears recently conducted two more interviews for their head coaching position with Baltimore Ravens Offensive Coordinator Todd Monken and, most recently, the Buffalo Bills Offensive Coordinator Joe Brady.

To have either Monken or Brady as the Bears next head coach would be a dream. Both are among the best at their position, and both have the top two candidates for the NFL MVP award in Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen.
The 35-year-old Brady has been with the Bills for a few seasons after first coming into the organization as a quarterbacks coach in 2022. Brady was known for his talents and ability to work with the Bills franchise quarterback Josh Allen so well that the Bills elevated him to their offensive coordinator officially on Jan. 28, 2024. Brady has the chance to be the next top young coaching candidate to get an NFL head coaching job. With designing and formulating one of the league’s best offenses, it’s not hard to see why teams would be lining up to try and bring Brady in.
According to Fox Sports, the Bills were ranked in the top 10 for all major offensive categories this season. The Bills were tenth in total offense (359.1), ninth in passing (227.9 yds) and rushing (131.2), second in scoring (30.9 points), and second in red zone offense (71.6%). It also helps to have an MVP candidate in Josh Allen, who threw 28 touchdowns to just 6 interceptions and threw for 3,731 yards this season.
Would Brady join the Chicago Bears?
The Bears are a really interesting team from the standpoint of being that they’re not too far off from competing. They have a young and hungry quarterback in Caleb Williams who is looking to further expand on what was a tremendous rookie season and come back next year looking to dominate. With virtually not being far behind Allen stat-wise, with only throwing 3,541 yards to Allen’s 3,731 and having just having eight less touchdowns (20) and the same number of interceptions (6).
Bringing in Joe Brady to do what he did with Allen and have him replicate it with Williams would unlock so much potential for both Williams and the Bears offense, as well as rapidly further Williams development as a quarterback. With already having other offensive weapons in Keenan Allen, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze, and D’Andre Swift, the Bears with Brady could be a force to be reckoned with in both the NFC North and the NCF.
