CHICAGO -- Chicago Bears defensive coordinator and former Indianapolis Colts head coach Chuck Pagano has decided to retire, league sources told ESPN, confirming multiple reports.

The Bears are likely to retain head coach Matt Nagy and general manger Ryan Pace, sources said.

Pagano, 60, spent just two seasons in Chicago after a six-year run as head coach of the Colts. He was hired by the Bears on Jan. 11, 2019, to replace decorated defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who left to become head coach of the Denver Broncos.

As I understand it, Nolan and Capers are both available.  Either would be another win for the Packers.

Sounds like Wentz did not want to go to the Bears.

Indy gets a shot with Wentz working with Frank Reich again with an OL exponentially better than he's had recently.

Indy gives up a 1st and a third for him and the Eagles absorb the huge cap hit. Indy gets him for 22 million a year which is not bad for a guy that has at least shown he can be a good NFL QB and is still young. More importantly, it he doesn't work out there is no cap hit to just release him. You'd have given up draft picks, but you haven't compromised your cap for years to come.

Why would anyone want to play in Chicago?  Just the "Chicago Style Pizza" is enough to clog arteries and shorten life.  And I haven't mentioned the pocket draining tolls, the suicide traffic, the gangs, or going to an actual Bears game. 

1968 season finale.
Bears playing for the Central Division title, Packers at the end of an era (or perhaps the beginning) playing for pride, and reminding Chicago that TBSS.

I can't stop....So hilarious

I doubt it. Dalton playoff games, 4.  Record 0-4.  TD passes, 1 total.  INT, 6!  Completion % 55.7.   Chances of Bears making playoffs with Dalton, not good.  Chance of winning a playoff game,  0!

If Dalton is worth $10 million there are a bunch of QBs worth $40 million.
