The Chicago Bears wanted to go with somebody who had more experience as an offensive coordinator after firing Luke Getsy this off-season. After an extensive search, they opted for Shane Waldron. He’d done three years at the job with the Seattle Seahawks, during which he got good production out of both Russell Wilson and Geno Smith. He’d learned under top offensive minds like Sean McVay and Josh McDaniels. He seemed like a safe bet. So naturally, he turned out to be the exact wrong choice.
At least, that is how it looks at present.
