You can almost Bank on Barry joining the Bears staff. Vikings and Bears "Packers trash is our treasure!"
It would be classic Bears, that's for certain.
Former Chargers head coach Brandon Staley is interviewing for the Packers vacant defensive coordinator position, sources tell @mattschneidman and me.

Sure, why not.
Staley is MLF connected and perfected the now obsolete Fangio system back when he had Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey in their prime.
Add in that Staley was in charge of some of the worst performing defenses in the NFL the past couple of seasons and his defense had one of the all-time choke jobs in last year’s playoffs and Brandon seems like the ideal candidate to succeed Joe Barry and continue the proud tradition of defense in GB.
I hope not. Based on his record he had one good year. This year was a disaster for his team defensively. Maybe I just don’t understand.
Bryan Bulaga, who played for him in LA, just trashed Staley on ESPN Wisconsin.
Unbelievable.
Bulaga and Tauscher are hard no’s in Staley.
Who is up for more of the same?

Maybe this is MLF’s plan to make us appreciate Barry?

No doubt he had success with the Rams. However, an * should be placed for also having Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey as wll. Arguably, 2 future HOF'ers. Having those 2 game wreckers would make pretty much any DC look pretty damn good.
Dude has Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack
him
hard pass
Give someone new a chance. No more retreads.
Bears new DC? Yess pleeeeasssee!
The Chicago Bears will interview Joe Barry for the defensive coordinator position per sources. They are also meeting with #Bills AHC/DL coach Eric Washington for defensive coordinator per sources. https://t.co/KGScqAIoqn

Welp if he gets it....one thing is certain.....he knows MLF's offense 🤷♂️ - I thought Bears did a pretty good job stopping the Packers in the red zone in week #18. 400 yards of offense but they held the Pack to 17 points
I don't get it.....why even interview the guy? What a waste of fucking time
This is BS (pun intended)
Seeing lots and lots of Mike Zimmer as Packers DC.

Exactly. WTF is he thinking...
Anyone know who Christ Hewitt is? He's the Ravens Passing Game Coordinator/Secondary coach.
If he shuts down Mahomes on Sunday. Wouldn't he deserve an interview??
The #Packers have interviewed rising #Broncos DBs coach Christian Parker for their vacant defensive coordinator job, source said. Just 32 years old, Parker has impressed.

Fuck! I’ve got a kid older than him. All he’ll do is make me feel old.
@Pakrz posted:Any grumblings out there about who GB is considering for DC? I haven't run across anything official other than random dumdums offering up their opinions.
So far more rumblings than grumblings, but that will surely change when we start to hear reports of who is actually interviewing.
Widening that net..

The #Packers requested permission to interview #Bills LB coach Bobby Babich for their defensive coordinator job, source says. Babich, who recently interviewed with the #Giants for the same role, will meet with Green Bay.

Green Bay's defensive players would really relate to Parker, and that's a big deal. Also, he might be willing to keep some of the assistants since he worked with most of them in '19 and '20. That seems to be a big deal to Mark Murphy, who doesn't like paying coaches not to coach.

Bring him in, win a Super Bowl, and pick up a 3rd round compensatory pick when he gets a head coaching gig.
Profit.
Zimmer is a 4-3 guy, so I don't know how he'd fit in GB with the current personnel.

This is the Fritz Shurmur argument. People loved him, but he had at least 4 star level guys on defense when he won the Super Bowl as the Packers DC. This doesn't include very good players like Santana Dotson and Gilbert Brown.
Two Hall of Famers (Reggie and Butler) along with two other guys that were not that far from Hall of Fame material (Sean Jones with 113 career sacks and Eugene Robinson with 57 career interceptions).
If you replaced any DL the Packers had this year with prime Reggie White or Aaron Donald, Joe Barry probably looks like a genius too.
This is a solid take from Andy ... 👇🏼
Listen, I have no idea if the Packers are going to interview Jim Leonhard again or if they have any interest. I also have no idea if Leonhard is interested in the job. But to say he's not a quality candidate when the Packers literally offered him the job last time & the Eagles…

Pete Dougherty laid out a compelling argument why GB's personnel would fit better in a 4-3. For example, he suggests LVN and Gary would be better DE's as both have played with their hand on the ground, also that Walker could then be used in the role Parsons has in DAL.
Gute has embraced being new the last couple years. We'll see how far that goes and if MLF is up for the same. Another angle is that you don't hire the scheme, you hire the coach.

If we're going to hire more of the same we may as well have kept Ed Donatell or Capers. I would like to find someone innovative and run something like a 5-1-5. Mix in zone and man coverage on the same play.

I agree you hire the coach and not the scheme. I'm just saying that there might be a big lack of depth for at least a year if we go LVN and Gary as DEs as the roster is currently set up for a 3-4. Who would be behind them? Quay might be great in the Parsons role; I could see that, and he did have success rushing when Barry let him.
Another issue was that many players in MN had well-documented issues with Zimmer in that he was old-school, unbending, caustic, didn't listen, etc. Here's what Cam Dantzler said: “'I don’t talk to guys who are hurt.' Dantzler recalled Zimmer telling him, according to Dunne.
“I’m like, ‘Whoa. OK.’ Those words came out of his mouth,' Dantzler continued, per Dunne. 'I’m an outgoing person. People like my personality. I bring joy to the room. I don’t know. He’s an old school type of guy. He wasn’t feeling it.'"
And from the same short article: "...the anonymous former Vikings assistant who referred to Zimmer as 'Satan' in a previous interview with Dunne." story
It was well known how much players did not like Zimmer as another player said in the later years guys dreaded going to work. No thanks, I'll pass.
