Bears Interview Vic Fangio For Head Coaching Job
7 years agoThe Chicago Bears interviewed defensive coordinator Vic Fangio for their head coaching position Wednesday. Fangio, who has spent 31 years as an NFL assistant and 18 as a defensive coordinator, is a well-respected defensive coach who coached an underrated Chicago defense in 2017. They finished ranked ninth in points allowed and 10th in total yards allowed. The Bears were also No. 6 in sacks and No. 7 in passing yards allowed per game. While Fangio has never really been much of a head coaching candidate in the NFL, the Bears respect him enough to give him an interview. He's probably unlikely to land the gig, but if he doesn't, Chicago will surely try to keep him on as the defensive coordinator.
