Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has two interviews lined up. He’ll meet with both the Broncos and Dolphins on Monday, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter). 
The Broncos and Dolphins submitted interview requests for the Bears DC earlier this week and they were quickly granted, even though the Bears are gearing up for a playoff showdown against the Eagles. Their interest is understandable – Fangio produced a top-10 defense without a Pro Bowler in 2017 and now has the top DVOA unit with three Pro Bowlers. Khalil Mack has certainly boosted the Bears D, but Fangio has a track record of results.
Fangio was largely overlooked in last year’s cycle, but things should be different this time around. Assuming the experience works in his favor, Fangio’s five career stints as an NFL defensive coordinator should make him an attractive candidate for even more teams.
Pay him whatever it takes to keep him in Chicago!!! We have a great thing going, let’s not take any steps back!! Bear Down!
If the man’s goal was to someday become a head coach, money should not be an object. He is already one of the highest paid coordinators in the league, but it would be a huge loss for the Bears.
This guy is a real catch. Good luck, Vic. You’re a head coach somewhere.
It would kill me to see Vic go to the Broncos who dumped Cutler and Fox on us. Denver had a top DC in Wade Phillips and instead of promoting him to HC they let him get away.
I’d hate to see him leave Chicago, but he deserves a HC job. I wish him the best, someone will hire him. The Bears should immediately promote his top assistant to DC and keep the same principles and sets, before another team scoops him up as well.
Unless he’s not really interested in becoming a head coach and just trying to get some leverage on a new contract, the 49ers made a huge mistake in not giving him the job after Harbaugh left.
Would hate to see Fangio leave, but if he does, Chicago sports radio already has Tood Bowles with the inside track to be DC.
Don’t go, Vic! You’re in the early
stages of seeing the fruits of your expertise and defensive genius come to fruition.
This thing is just getting started and will last a loooooong time. The grass isn’t always greener, and you’re beloved in Chicago.
H e ll, you’re the “head coach” of the defense. Give it some thought.
