Five Thoughts on the Bears and the Matt Eberflus Situation
It illustrates why the Bears’ organization is considered a joke.
Matt Eberflus never fails to amaze. Matt was in rare form Thursday as he watched the clock run down with a timeout in his pocket as the Bears lost to the Lions 23–20. With under a minute to play, the Bears appeared in position to actually win the game or at the very least attempt a game-tying field goal. However, sacks and penalties coupled with Eberflus pulling a Joe Biden/Mitch Mcconnell intervened again.
And as usual, Eberflus poured salt into the wounds of Bears fans with a post-game interview that shows just how out of touch with reality he is. Eberflus said of the game-ending fiasco, “I like what we did there.” That response was even more disgusting than the clock management. Now, on to five thoughts about the Matt Eberflus situation.
1: How about some accountability?
Offensive coordinator, Shane Waldron was sacked because of poor performance. It seems like he was scapegoated to some extent. Obviously, he needed to go. Now that Thomas Brown had taken the reins of the offense, Williams has performed better. The idea behind sacking Waldron was he was hurting Caleb Williams. I doubt retaining Eberflus is helping Williams.
