"[Poyer] put together a really special group of guys, family and friends, and just happened to get connected to Aaron Rodgers on the trip, which was pretty cool," Colbert said.
Bears coaching search: Ranking top candidates after Week 15
The man behind Josh Allen's incredible MVP campaign, Buffalo's 11-3 record, and an undeniable head coaching candidate, Joe Brady has been on fire this year.

Brady gets the top nod this week over Johnson because of his ability to do more with less weapons than Detroit has and getting the most out of Allen's dual-threat ability. Brady has launched himself atop of coaching conversations and feels like a home run hit for whomever hires him.
