 Much more to that consider between Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars than just that:

• Bears will probably retain GM Ryan Poles. Is he good enough? vs. Jaguars may remove Baalke and may let you help pick the GM.
  
• Bears have half their team as FA's next year that will eat into their FA cap space but that means you have more say in changing stuff faster vs Jaguars who would be retaining most of their players.
  
• Bears have an extra 2nd round pick next year vs. Jags have extra 3rd and 4th round picks next year.
  
• Chicago has much stronger microscope and media scrutiny vs Jacksonville media and market means out of limelight unless something happens -- bad or good.
  
• NFC North Division strength vs AFC South Division strength
  
• NFC has overall easier path esp since leaving Detroit weakens 1 elite teams with Detroit/Philly/SanFran/GB/Wash vs AFC having considered tougher playoff path with KCC/Balt/Bills/Texans/Bengals/Steel/Charg
  
• Familiarity with NFC defenses he has faced and staying in same division vs. AFC defenses he hasn't seen as regularly.
  
• In 25 face NFC East/AFC North and in 26 face NFC South/AFC East vs. in 25 face AFC West/NFC West and 26 face AFC North/NFC East.
  
• Don't have to deal with yearly London trip vs 2 London games a year.
  
• Bears have new stadium proposal up for vote, but can still play at Soldier during that time and construction vs Jags already guaranteed to play outside Jax in 2027 which would be year 3 and there will be a lot of pressure on whatever coach is here no matter what.
