Rob ChudzinskiCHICAGO -- ESPN's Chris Mortensen mentioned two more possible candidates for the Bears' offensive coordinators position via his Twitter account: San Diego assistant head coach in charge of tight ends Rob Chudzinski and Indianapolis assistant head coach in charge of receivers Clyde Christensen.
According to the Chicago Tribune, the Bears could ask for permission to interview him early next week. Formerly the offensive coordinator of the Browns, the highlight of Chudzinski's resume is turning Derek Anderson into a Pro Bowl QB in 2007. Colts WRs coach Clyde Christensen has also been mentioned as a possibility in Chicago.
Chudzinski served as the Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator from 2007-08, while also calling plays for his alma mater Miami from 2001-03. It would be interesting to see the feedback Chudzinski would receive from fellow Chargers' coaches about potentially coming to Chicago, since after all, head coach Norv Turner is the brother of ex-Bears' offensive coordinator Ron Turner. Not to mention, San Diego's staff also includes Ron Rivera, Steve Wilks and Don Johnson, all of whom were let go at one point by Lovie Smith.
