Chicago Bears: 2017 Quarterbacks That Fit Dowell Loggains

At this point nobody is sure what fate awaits the Chicago Bears coaching staff in 2017. It seems like everybody could be fired or retained.

Such is how the rumor mill goes for a losing team. By and large though, expectations are for head coach John Fox to get one more year to get things rolling. The big question will be whether or not he shakes up his staff. The Chicago Tribune reported over a week ago that both coordinators Vic Fangio and Dowell Loggains were in danger of leaving.

While fans have cried for explanation as to why Fangio would be in such a position, nobody has rushed to the defense of Loggains. Not surprising since his offense has scored just 17 points per game this season. Granted, a lot of that is due to injuries across the roster from the offensive line to the receivers and quarterbacks. It’s hard to execute in such a situation.

Then again Loggains has also delivered some very curious play calling. Despite the problems at quarterback, he refuses to run the football. Rookie sensation Jordan Howard has 969 yards rushing this season. That’s despite averaging just 16 carries per game. Good offensive coordinators realize what their team does best and finds ways to maximize it. Instead he’s trying to attack defensive with an emergency backup quarterback throwing to backup wide receivers.

Nevertheless he’s fortunate to have Fox as the head coach. In his history the 61-year has never fired a coordinator. He’s known for being loyal to his staff and trying to work around such problems. So current odds say Loggains will be back.

If that’s the case, then who do the Bears get to play quarterback?
