    Jeff Fisher Interested in The Bears

    Report: Jeff Fisher has eyes for Bears

    By Sean Jensen on January 3, 2012 7:24 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks



    Bears president and CEO Ted Phillips emphasized Tuesday at a press conference that coach Lovie Smith's job is safe.


    Any general manager hired to replace Jerry Angelo must keep Smith, signed through 2013, through at least the 2012 season.


    But according to a story on NFL.com, former Bears safety Jeff Fisher -- one of the biggest free-agent coaches -- wants to return to Chicago.


    Reportedly a candidate for the vacancies with the St. Louis Rams and Miami Dolphins, Fisher "will keep an eye on Halas Hall."


    NFL Network reporter Albert Breer cited a source with knowledge of Fisher's thinking as saying of the Bears coaching job, "That's the one he's always wanted."


    According to Breer, Fisher is fond of Bears quarterback Jay Cutler. Fisher's former offensive coordinator, Mike Heimerdinger, worked with Cutler in Denver in 2006 and 2007. Heimerdinger passed away in September.


    Breer, though, points out that Fisher's likely landing spot is St. Louis. Fisher is represented by agent Marvin Demoff, whose son Kevin is the chief operating officer of the Rams.

    They could change their minds, but I doubt it. I would rather have Lovie anyway.

    Six of one is a half dozen of the other. Lovie and Jeff Fisher are proven winners, and both did so in less than ideal situations. If there is a difference in the two coaches, it would have to be that Fisher was a better gameday coach than Lovie. His defensive strategy is straight up 4-3, but he plays more man coverage. Urlacher might benefit statistically from Fisher's style of defense than he will from here on out on Lovie Smith's.

    Overall, though, I don't think there is any reason to believe that Lovie will ever be fired before the 2013 season unless things go from bad to worse next season. He's already gotten two loads off of his shoulders with the firing of Jerry Angelo and the resignation of Mike Martz. For all the difference, I think continuity is best unless the Bears get to a point where return to pre-2005 levels of ineptitude, which, in the last six games of this season, cost Angelo and Martz their jobs.
