topwop1 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 2 minutes ago, WindyCity said: Our secondary is incredibly well coached. He knows the personnel. He has sat beside Fangio for years. Â It just makes too much sense to promote Donatell now that the #1 option is gone. It makes a lot of sense, but since Donatell is out of a contract and is being recruited by Fangio to join him as his DC in Denver while considering that Nagy's first choice to replace Vic was Bowles, do you think it's likely he wants to stay here?

Madmike90 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Caldwell or Hewitt for me if Donatell is gone...although it will be interesting to see if he also looks at the college ranks like he did for Helfrich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had one good regular season followed by a quick exit. Hope you enjoyed it kiddo. 31-0 at Lambeau. Fun times had by you. I hear the Bucks are really good this year tho.

Looks like it helped tremendously compared to what they had going on previous years. Nagy also didn't make guys push through injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to be a position coach first. Me neither. I want a respected guy who has previously coached (and as a bonus played) on the defensive side in the NFL. Losing a guy like Vic you need to replace him with someone with some clout and who the players on can respect. This defensive unit is used to a no nonsense approach.

Word is that Bowles orally told Arians he would be his guy. He really wanted Bears job, but didn't want to go back on his initial word. Kind of the anti-McDaniels.

WindyCity Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Did some reading on Mike Hewitt, there are some interesting points there. He has never called plays, but his work with the secondary there is pretty impressive. It would be a risk, but someone who could grow into the role.
