I’ll be honest, I didn’t even know who Matt Eberflus was before the Bears hired him. I then saw the notification and didn’t really know what to think, but seeing that we hired a defensive minded guy for (at the time) a QB going into his second season had me confused.

I thought maybe it would work because anything was better than Nagy (at that point lol), but here we are today. I think a lot of fans didn’t like the hire at first and still don’t like it obviously.

Who did the Bears pass up on/who is someone they could’ve had if they didn’t hire Eberflus?

    I agree it was a foolish hire. But, I do think that we will go offensive minded for the next hire for whatever reason we seem to alternate between the two.

    I’m liking Eric Bienemy from Washington or Ben Johnson from Detroit as of right now, but I wouldn’t mind Harbaugh being our guy either.

    Harbaugh is defensive minded but he knows how to build a football team and run one due to prior experience.

    I’d be fine with any of the 3 candidates I listed though, but Eric Bienemy really should be a guy who Bears fans want because he’s making a 5th rounder in Sam Howell look decent as a passer and he’s doing that behind the worst o line in football

      I agree on Harbaugh and Ben Johnson (harbaugh is offensive minded btw) but completely disagree on EB. His play calling was terrible today and from what i have seen (and heard from Washington fans) is a lot of what Howell is doing is making plays out of nothing moreso than Bienemy scheming plays for him. Some of the calls today had me thinking Getsy was coaching.
