Calm the alarms.
Lovie was fired, and most likely took his best friend Bob Babich with him, who was our LB coach. Mike Singletary as a LB coach would be great, he is doing monsterous work with Chad Greenway, and would be a very good option for helping to groom Urlacher's eventual replacement.

Especially having him back home.

What is this monstrous work he has been doing? Just going over the stats, Greenway was doing just as good before Singletary joined the Vikings.

Didn't you hear? It all starts with the FIRE and the PASSION

But what if he can't coach with them?

Hey guys, this is a great idea for your team, you should definitely choose Singletary!
Just ignore my flair.

SF?
So rooting For the Bears?

They're interviewing him as a Head Coach out of respect to him, I think. I would assume they are probably more interested in him as a linebackers coach or perhaps D coordinator if Rod goes.
I really wouldn't mind him as an assistant coach somewhere. Pref linebackers.
And there is the added benefit that he has been coaching for the Vikings. If nothing else, they will pick his brain.

Vote "A" if you feel that this interview will be conducted with pants around ankles.
Vote "B" if you feel that this interview will be conducted with pants around the waist.

Always vote for pantless Singletary.
A.

Please... no... I know it's just an interview but all of the good faith Emery has built up would be lost in a second.

Could this be just to satisfy the Rooney Rule or have the Bears already done that?
3
I believe they already did. Armstrong, maybe? They've interviewed so many guys I really can't remember.
PS: Don't expect Singletary actually is hired...at least I hope. Looking like McCoy or Arians at least to me.
3
I just want the Broncos to get eliminated from the playoffs already so they can hire McCoy
2
This would be a fucking disaster! Singletary already proved he isn't head coaching material. If Emery hires him, then his credibility is completely out the window.
4
Maybe he's not trying to hire him as a HC.

Noooooooooooooo

BOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Add 2 more names to #Bears interview list for Phil Emery: #Vikings assistants Mike Singletary and special teams coach Mike Priefer.

There was a post about Phil interviewing people just to pick their brain for info. LB is something we need to get fresh talent for and singletary is pretty good toward that stuff plus he was one of the greatest a linebackers ever.

Two more names popped up late Monday night. Former Bears linebacker and 49ers head coach Mike Singletary, currently a Vikings assistant, is expected to interview with Emery. It is believed Singletary's inclusion comes at the suggestion of the McCaskey family, led by Chairman George McCaskey
From an article I just read. So that explains that. Hopefully he's doing it to appease the owners, and hopefully he has the say, and not anybody from the McCaskeys.

Singletary as LB coach = cool
Singletary as HC = Oh god why?

I really don't want Mike Singletary to be the next HC but I assume Phil Emery knows what he's doing.
I forgot who said it but some reporter was joking a couple days ago saying if you're an Offensive Coordinator and you haven't been interviewed by the Bears yet you have to be wondering what the hell is wrong with you
I'm pretty sure Emery has interviewed every Pop Warner OC in the Chicagoland area at this point.
