    That is why I think Weidl should be in on the hiring, or at least given a chance to give his input. However, Rooney didn't mention his name.

    Watching Ram’s defense is giving me flashback to watching Tomlin’s defense. Would Shula be so highly thought of if he didn’t have Shula name. Not excited about Flores either.. I think his act will get old after 4-5 years. I liked what young Patriots defensive coordinator has done, but he took over during the season and is not a candidate. Some of the coaching could be just Vrabel. Watching Stafford somewhat struggle against Bears leads me to conclude that Mason’s effort wasn’t that bad

    I keep waiting to hear something from the younger Dan Rooney.

    Art Rooney is now a year older than his father Dan when he retired and let Art take over. The new head coach will probably be spending more years under the younger Dan Rooney that his father Art.

    Very, confusing on the Rooney Family when they keep just reusing the same first name. :) I was told that Dan Rooney was at the Art Rooney end of year Press Conference, but did not say anything.

    I get that. Im against Shula because I think you are right about his last name. His defense just gave up 31 to the panthers. I like Flores as he fits in well for our division. Im kinda warming up to Aden Durde...Seahawks DC....after what we just saw his defense do to the 49ers and his defense has been stout all year and he's only 46.

    That Seahawks DC doesn't even call the plays their HC does.

    Just to add to the confusion there are 5 Rooneys in the front office and two of them are named Dan

    The one you mention is Daniel Martin Rooney he has only been regularly involved with the team since 2022 is a business guy not a football guy but is the heir apparent

    Chris Shula's finesse pansy-ass southern California defense seems to be doing okay in 5 degree snowy Chicago.

    Thats true. But he's learning under MacDonald. Kinda like Aaron Rodgers learning under Brett Farve or any coach or player that is getting groomed. Durde will be a head coach soon.

    Yeah?...theyve already given up over 300 yards of offense in the snow. Bears defense is actually doing better.

    I thought the Rams played well on defense. Caleb Williams is an athletic freak. If any QB was playing for the Bears that’s still playing in the playoffs, Rams might have won this comfortably.

    It was freezing tonight. And tired and beat up. And still the Rams Defense was getting turnovers.

    Why were they tired and beat up?....because that supposed great defensive coordinator and his defense gave up 31 points to the lowly Carolina Panthers.

    The best defense in the NFL allowed 28 earlier. Maybe you should get with the times. Shut down defenses don’t exist in todays NFL anymore.
