DJ Moore Reveals What He Wants Next Bears Head Coach To Be

The Chicago Bears are limping to the finish once again. This 2024 season will mark the fourth consecutive season with a losing record. DJ Moore has to wonder why his luck is so bad. He endured similar problems in Carolina for years with head coaching changes and an inability to forge a cohesive program. Like other veterans in the locker room, he’s worried if he’ll ever get a chance to play for a Super Bowl while in his peak years. After watching Matt Eberflus get fired last month, he has eyes on January for who the replacement could be.

It’s not hyperbole to say this upcoming decision could determine the course of the franchise for the next decade. Moore was asked on 670 The Score what he is hoping for from the search. His answer was interesting.

“We’re all on the same page as far as getting somebody in here who’s going to lead this team in the right direction, have a solid game plan week in and week out and is just going to let it loose no matter what.”

That comment reinforces the belief that players were fed with Eberflus’ rampant conservatism, showing a constant unwillingness to make aggressive calls in key situations. Those moments added up to way too many close losses.

DJ Moore must hope and pray the Bears get it right.

He’s only been here two years. The wide receiver has no idea what fans have endured for the past decade, watching this organization bumble through four different head coaches who all saw their tenures end with controversy and disappointment. One could argue this period has been even darker than the late 1960s and early 1970s. Either way, DJ Moore is relegated to the same status as everybody else. He has no say in what happens for the next month as GM Ryan Poles and team president Kevin Warren work to fix a problem that has bedeviled the organization for years. Faith is at an all-time low. Nobody trusts the decision-makers inside Halas Hall to have the intelligence or instinct to pull it off.
