Two days after the Chicago Bears introduced their current head coach, the coach they fired is a finalist for his next job.

The Dallas Cowboys are promoting Brian Schottenheimer to head coach, making his first defensive hire -- potentially defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus -- all the more important.

According to NFL insider Ed Werder, Eberflus has emerged as a candidate for the Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator job under new head coach Brian Schottenheimer.

Andre Curtis interviewed for the Cowboys' DC position, and he is a prime candidate to land a spot on the team's staff. More at PFR.

Before the 2024 season started, there seemed to be a clear top quarterback in the NFC North, but who actually ended up being the best?

The Bears hired Johnson, 38, after three seasons as offensive coordinator for the Lions. In his first season, he helped them jump from 25th to fifth in scoring, then they finished fifth last season and led the NFL with 33.2 points per game this season.

Not only does it work for the Rooney Rule, it also makes sense that Matt Eberflus will want Andre Curtis here to oversee his secondary.

Bears Nation was not psyched when the team inked Matt Eberflus as their head coach. Same deal with Matt Nagy, John Fox, and Marc Trestman. They were kinda-sorta happy when Lovie Smith was brought into the fold, but that was mostly due to the fact that Smith was replacing the justifiably maligned Dick Jauron.

Unfortunately, the coaching situation was far worse than anyone could have imagined, and the Bears fired two coaches, Eberflus and offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, over the course of just 17 days.
