So instead, they paid him for a season, still have to pay out his contract, and will have to pay an incoming coach.
Brilliant!!
I'm hearing he had a 3 year deal averaging about 3.5 mil per

Vrabel at 17 mill

Point was that the idea of having to pay a buyout is what prevented them from pivoting from Mayo is ridiculous. They paid it anyway
Alas, not hearing any complaints from the Mayo camp so it sounds like maybe it was a bit mutual

What he should do is have a couple "administrative assistants" he pays well to take care of things. Pay their bonuses in cash, under the table, for their "favors."

$17m per year?

Does that mean Mcvay should be on $100m per year?

I think special is a bit much. Would you expect him to go to the Bears and have the type of impact that McVay instantly had with the Rams?

I know I wouldn’t.
I would, but I sure hope he loses on the 20th.

I wouldn't expect the X's and O's to change anywhere near as much as the culture. But that's what Chicago needs.

Bears IMO should be focusing on one of the offensive minded candidates and get their guy. If they waste time on Freeman they risk losing out on a guy they can get that will help them. And then we're back to them ruining another QB as they miss on guys in the NFL and Freeman turns them down.

In the end I really believe this is where Ben Johnson ends up. IMO, from a talent standpoint I believe Johnson wants this job and the fans want Johnson. Obviously other things have to play out, but I strongly believe when the dust settles, Johnson will be their next Head Coach with a former Head Coach as his DC.

I think you have totally nailed it. This is the scenario that I see happening.
