Favourable Outlook: Thomas Brown’s Bears Future Looks Bright: Here’s Why

Interim coach is never a desirable position.

It’s perceived team management is always thinking of you as a place holder until they get the chance to look over what everyone else has to offer on their coaching staff.

It’s usually a situation where something bad is happening with the team. After all, unless it’s like when Chuck Pagano had leukemia and the Colts turned it over to Bruce Arians, someone got fire and the interim coach is someone on staff taking over for the rest of the season.

It’s not an ideal setup for Bears interim coach Thomas Brown. He no longer has the backing of an experienced defensive signal caller trying to stop the opposition the way the Bears did with former head coach Matt Eberflus performing the task on game days.
Defenses will be called by Eric Washington who has had only minor play calling experience with Carolina and wasn’t entirely successful. Ron Rivera took the duty back at the beginning of December in the 2018 season after Washington did it all season. The results under Rivera that season weren’t a great deal different than they were for Washington, and now Washington has gained more experience over six seasons since then.

Still, it’s a team that nearly beat three straight high-powered divisional opponents.

His first opportunity comes on the road, and if he can win there the confidence will really soar because the Bears have only been able to win three times on the road in three seasons, and none within the last calendar year.
