Why isn't he fired yet? That was dog shit effort and even worse coaching.

Because it’s not his fault.

The defense is playing fine. The running game works about as well as it could under the circumstances. The special teams has generally been pretty good.

You just have a quarterback who you cannot bench who plays like a fifth rounder, fucks with play calls and generally just does everything completely wrong. If Eberflus were continuing to play him under his own volition it’d be one thing, but we know that there is a mandate from Tanesha Wade that Williams must play every down.

The Bears are not firing a coach they can control. Bring in a new guy who wants to showcase himself? He might play Bagent and we see just how worthless Caleb Williams actually is and what a DEI disaster it was to draft him first overall.

Not sure which is a worse take from you. It is not on Eberflus or the White Sox are a couple players away.

Eberflus' post game press conference pretty much gave the same answer for each question asked. He's got 2 years left on his contract after this year and after that he'll always be working if he gets fired. So now it's just going through the motions treading water.

Team has no enthusiasm and spark.

It's a mess. But, common in Chicago pro sports teams becoming nearly unwatchable.

Why did they give Eberflus a five-year contract? He was not a hot prospect. He was the defensive coordinator for some mediocre Colts teams that won maybe one playoff game. This team, I swear.

I don’t want to do a look back right now, but wasn’t this an ass backwards process where they hired Poles and gave him a list of like two people to choose from as his coach?

no doubt Bears were hoping Waldron would work the same magic with Williams like he did with Geno.

Prior to taking over as OC in Seattle in 2021, Waldron was the Rams passing game coordinator and QB coach from 2019 til Seattle. Goff's QBR peaked the season before Waldron assumed the QB handler role for the Rams and proceeded to decline each season under Waldron, until the Rams paid a draft pick in compensation to send Goff to the Lions for Stafford.

Bobby Slowik or Brian Griese would be good choices for a QB whisperer, based on Brock Purdy and CJ Stroud's performance.

Or maybe these QB's need to broken down and desperate to hang on in the league, so they'll take the coaching.

Quote:
"We're less than 24 hours after the game," Eberflus said. "We're in the process of that. ... Again, there's gotta be a change and adjustment to what we're doing because we obviously lost three in a row. ...

"There will be changes, adjustments being made. I'm not gonna disclose those right now. I'm not at that point in the process."

Monday's a long day in terms of the evaluation of everything, in terms of lineup, in terms of coaching in terms of how we need to do better in that coaching," Eberflus said Monday. "... It's important that we take time to make those decisions and make the right decisions for the Bears."


The professionalization of coaching/managing brought about by the statheads has resulted in press conferences now sounding like an HR seminar. Thanks a lot, nerds.

I have a hard time believing that.

I find it hard to believe as well, but lest we forget the "Coaching to not get fired" phase of Bears Hell, where even more silliness abounds from guys who want to keep bilking a clueless family ownership group.

I wouldn't expect it but there must have been some rumblings about it for it to make it's way to Schefter.

Eberflus bragging about good walk throughs and meetings is out of the Nagy playbook.

He's going to start coaching to not get fired. Any lead the Bears get will immediately be followed by a switch to insanely conservative play calling. Trestman, Fox, and Nagy all ended up doing it.
