All three Bears coordinators have coronavirus

All three Bears coordinators have the coronavirus.

Offensive coordinator Bill Lazor, defensive coordinator Sean Desai and special teams coordinator Chris Tabor tested positive this week.

The team is still working through who will call plays if they can’t coach Monday night against the Vikings. They will participate in meetings via Zoom.

The Bears changed Thursday’s practice to a walk-through, and may do the same Friday, coach Matt Nagy said Thursday.

With very few exceptions, all coaches league-wide are vaccinated. Vaccinated players and coaches must test negative twice in 48 hours to be eligible to return.

It’s ok, Nagy will handle this

[wab]

I guess Flip and Townsend fill in?

[HisRoyalSweetness]

The perfect excuse for Nagy to reclaim play calling responsibilities on offense. (Well to do so openly at any rate.)

[UOK]

Let chaos reign.

[The Cooler King]

Just forfeit.

[The Marshall Plan]

Have Fields and Roquan call the plays. Let's do this!

My Deep Bear Conspiratorial Mind is thinking Nagy is sneezing on people and touching their stuff after wiping his nose.

I'm guessing Nagy will call plays on offense and Pettine on defense.

[EricTighe]

The train wreck continues.

[Bears Whiskey Nut]

Just forfeit.

This is about where I am at.

However I don't think the sneezing thing is as conspiratorial as TMP thinks. Totally plausible.

[Arkansasbear]

Just forfeit.

Maybe whoever fills in for them (at least on defense and special teams since Nagy likely reclaims the offensive play calling) call "Wally Pip" them. Maybe it's addition by subtraction. Much like I hope to see at CB with Burns out (although I was one of the fools that thought a change of teams might help him).

If whoever fills in for Desai makes that defensive backfield into a pro unit, sign them to a lifetime contract lol

Thielen and Jefferson against the Bears DBs =

I predict a big day for Cousins.

Other than Cousins tends to blow on the big stage so I still say we beat them.

[Artbest]

This is a significant organizati0onal failure

[Ditka’s dictaphone]

I just hope they’re all healthy

[Ditka’s dictaphone]

Imagine if the Bears absolutely ball-out against the Vikings.

Nagy is going to be completely bullet-proof

[HisRoyalSweetness]

From the Sun Times: "Nagy hinted that senior defensive assistant Mike Pettine was the likely choice to serve as defensive coordinator if Desai is out."

No surprise there.

[dave99]

The team can hardly look less coordinated that it has most of the season, so probably no discernable change.

Is it the Big Stage just because it is Monday Night? Because it is not a "marquee" matchup by any stretch of the imagination.

Interesting stat - Cousins has the 5th best passer rating in the league , all time, and the only QB in the top 12 with a losing record.

Along with 12 players on the Reserve/Covid list and 8 on the Non-Covid list. Might be having open auditions over the weekend to find enough players.

Do you think they would take a 51 year-old with bad knees? I'm 5'10" 200lbs. I'm a svelte at 18% body fat. What's the minimum check for one game? Like $100K? I'm be down for that.

Hey..I got a call from a 312 area code.. Didn't answer just in case...

You want to play CB or S?

It might be Virginia calling to talk to George one more time. Just humor the old woman and sound like Papa Bear for a few minutes.

Or maybe a Sweet Emotion kind of a vibe?
