Dead or alive, NFC North staying busy

The Minnesota Vikings are preparing to play the Philadelphia Eagles for the right to represent the NFC in Super Bowl LII.

The other three teams in the NFC North fell short of the playoffs this year.

But that doesn’t mean the Packers, Lions and Bears aren’t staying busy. Chicago made a coaching change, replacing John Fox with Matt Nagy, Green Bay made a switch with both coordinators, and hired a new general manager, and the Detroit Free Press reports the Lions have picked their next head coach. Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia is expected to replace Jim Caldwell, as soon as New England’s season is over.

But will Patricia keep offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter?

We’ll ask Jamie Samuelson at 4:15 on SportsLine.

Then, we’ll be joined by Manny Hill at 4:45 … not that there’s anything to talk about with the Vikings.
