A Few Notes on the Hiring of Declan Doyle as Offensive Coordinator

Declan Doyle is the brand new offensive coordinator of the Chicago Bears. What does it imply?

Ben Johnson is now firmly positioned within the lineage of Invoice Parcells, which hint via Sean Payton to Dan Campbell. (The Dennis Allen hiring at DC furthers this.) Few teaching bushes have been extra profitable than that of Parcells, and everybody in Chicago ought to hope that continues.
A good friend who has labored with Declan texted me the next: “He’s a stud. Outstanding hire. He’s a super genius.” Mentioned one other good friend, “Guaranteed to be a head coach down the road.”
That is an fascinating rent for Johnson, and in some ways it’s a legacy rent. Younger coaches satisfaction themselves on their staffs getting employed across the league and that’s certainly what Johnson is projecting right here.
I’m not notably excited about Doyle’s household tree. Don’t care that his dad was some terrible school coach. (Most school head coaches are terrible folks.) Don’t care that Mike Ditka is his uncle. (Would like to see an finish to the hero worshipping of the 1985 membership, title of this website however.) Declan is his personal man.
I might be barely stunned if Johnson doesn’t add a veteran coach to his offensive room, and his interviewing David Shaw prompt such.
