Bet the Next Head Coach of the Chicago Bears

As of Tuesday January 11, 2022, there was no clear favorite as to who will be hired as the new head coach of the Chicago Bears.

Co-favorites for now include Doug Pederson and Jim Harbaugh, each paying out $550 for every $100 bet.

The Bears on Monday opted for sweeping change by firing both their head coach, Matt Nagy, and GM Ryan Pace.

Nagy’s fate seemed sealed as the Bears struggled through a 6-11 season that ended with a loss at Minnesota on Sunday.  In fact, he was among the favorites to be fired first throughout much of the season.

Much of the focus for teams in search of a new head coach centers around Michigan Wolverines head coach Harbaugh. 

“I can tell you this — Jim Harbaugh has been calling around asking for people in case he gets an NFL job if they would join his staff,” Fox Sports Jay Glazer said. “He is interested in possibly returning to the NFL.”

Here are your Next Bears Head Coach candidates and payout odds (How to Read the Odds: +500 means that a $100 bet pays $500 or a $10 bet pays out $50)
