GM Candidate: Reggie McKenzie (requested)

[The Cooler King]

Feel like I wanted him during one of the past searches. 40-72 record with Raiders though, with 1 playoff appearance. Coach hires were Dennis Allen and Jack Del Rio.

Speculative

Yuck. He drafted Mack, Carr, and Amari Cooper then did nothing with them but set the table for his successors to make wild trades.

After interviewing Flores, Bears request an interview with Caldwell, who was Flores original plan for OC in Miami before he had to step away for health reasons. Now the Bears are requesting an interview with McKenzie, also with the Miami Dolphins.

I’d say they are doing their due diligence on Flores. Wouldn’t shock me if they hired Flores and he brought Caldwell and McKenzie with him.

I would not hate Flores, Caldwell, McKenzie. I'd hate Caldwell as HC but as Flores OC I kinda like that setup. I always felt McKenzie was solid. They could do alot worse than that trio.

[Grizzled]

Just say 'no'.

[wulfy]

Pass.

The answer to this question has to be an emphatic "no", but do the McCaskey's realize they've made a fucking joke out of this whole thing?

How did they not make a short list of candidates last year when it was readily apparent to pretty much everybody that at a minimum Nagy would be gone.

Unless if their name is so tarnished around the league. And they are such dumb ass goobers during these interviews that they have to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find anybody willing to take the job?

Jim Fucking Caldwell? Who said that was a good idea? Good grief!

Well, when you lean on Bill Polian and Tony Dungy for direction, doesn’t seem like a huge surprise that Caldwell would be considered.

This is interesting and would make a lot of sense as to why they made the late request.

Jim Caldwell is 67 and just took a leave of absence due to health reason. By itself, that's a sensible reason to pass on him, so perhaps things will work out.

You don't see the Flores/Caldwell connection? If you made me guess, I'd say it was more to get to know Flores, and to see if Caldwell would be his OC.

I didn't.

But that's a fair point assuming the McCaskey's are smart enough to play 4D Chess like that.

Pass.
