Ideal Replacements For Every Lost Chicago Bears Assistant Coach

-

Outside Linebackers:  Fred Pagac

It looks like the Denver Broncos are making a total change with their head coaching staff. Gary Kubiak has retired, leaving defensive coordinator Wade Phillips a free agent. Already Washington jumped into the sweepstakes to sign him. While that’s great for him, it leaves his staff in somewhat of a limbo. Often this is a great opportunity for another team to swipe a quality assistant.

The Bears would be foolish not to go after outside linebackers coach Fred Pagac. The 64-year old has been coaching since 1978. Since getting to the NFL in 2001 he’s developed somewhat of a reputation for being a pass rush specialist. Every team he has joined sees an immediate uptick in sack production. Since 2001 across five different stops, his teams have averaged 40.1 sacks a season.

He now has a Super Bowl ring after doing some outstanding work in Denver.
