Shane Waldron, the offensive coordinator of the Chicago Bears, has been a bit of a disaster throughout the start of the NFL season.
However, his team still has confidence in him. According to a new report, Waldron even got some nice advice from 40-year-old veteran Marcedes Lewis. Essentially, Lewis told Waldron not to worry about ruffling any feathers. Instead, he wants his coach to go out there and do his best regardless of the situation.
«Sometimes, as the coach coming in, you might be walking on eggshells,» Lewis said. «I just kind of put that to bed. Nobody's sensitive in here. We want to win games just as bad as you do. It's a collaborative effort. This is not Pop Warner. We work together, side by side, to get things done.»
Lewis went on to tell Waldron that everybody on the team wants to be coached, regardless of experience level. Needless to say, he wants his coach to feel comfortable and to succeed.
«From the oldest guy in the room - being me - to the youngest guy, don't feel like you can't coach us,» Lewis said. «I want to be coached. I want to be great. This is not, you know, this is not for play. This is our job. We understand that. It's a stressful, production-based business, and we've all got to be doing the same things or everybody gets fired. Ego is supposed to be left at the door. That's what it's about. He's very receptive to that.»
