BONUS CLIP: Chicago Bears retain Matt Eberflus, fire OC Luke Getsy | Justin Fields impact Jan 10, 2024

Show notes

The Chicago Bears are moving forward with Matt Eberflus as their head coach in 2024 but make a change at offensive coordinator firing Luke Getsy. Will Justin Fields and Eberflus be enough to attract a top OC candidate like Zac Robinson? Or will the allure of the first overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Caleb Williams and Drake Maye be the hook needed to land the next offensive architect?

2024 Chicago Bears offseason will make or break Ryan Poles' legacy as general manager Jan 10, 2024

Show notes

What Ryan Poles decides to do this offseason at head coach, quarterback and the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft will shape how he is remembered as Chicago Bears general manager.

If he keeps Matt Eberflus and passes on head coaches like Jim Harbaugh, Mike Vrabel or others, Bears fans will always wonder "What If?". Whether he keeps or trades Justin Fields or the No. 1 pick, we will always second guess his choice if he gets it wrong.

And if he gets the coach and the quarterback right, he will forever be a legend in Chicago.

Kevin Warren, Ryan Poles need to send message that mediocre isn’t good enough for Chicago Bears Jan 09, 2024

Show notes

The Chicago Bears will hold their end of the season press conference this week. Team president Kevin Warren and general manager Ryan Poles need to make it clear that the job Matt Eberflus has done as head coach has not been good enough.

Both Warren and Poles have talked repeatedly about working toward a championship, and it's hard to make the case that Eberflus and his staff are the right coaches to get the Bears to the Super Bowl.

Matt Eberflus, Luke Getsy show why they should be fired in Chicago Bears loss to Green Bay Packers Jan 08, 2024

Show notes

The Chicago Bears' Week 18 loss was the clearest example yet of why Ryan Poles should fire head coach Matt Eberflus and offensive coordinator Luke Getsy.

The defense was much worse than the 17-9 final score suggests, and Justin Fields and the offense couldn't even score a touchdown against a struggling Packers defense. It was bad all around.

Chicago Bears offensive coordinator choice is more important than quarterback decision on Justin Fields Jan 05, 2024

Show notes

Whether the Chicago Bears stick with Justin Fields or draft a rookie like Caleb Williams, the team needs to have the right offensive coordinator in place to put the quarterback in the best position to be successful.

Luke Getsy hasn't been good enough as a play-designer or play-caller this season, and Matt Eberflus needs to find a better option to develop his quarterback.

Chicago Bears need to prove their progress by taking back Green Bay Packers rivalry to end season Jan 04, 2024

Show notes

This is the biggest game of the season for the Chicago Bears (and for the Green Bay Packers). They aren't playing for the playoffs, but this is a playoff game and the ultimate measure of how much progress Matt Eberflus and Justin Fields have made against the team they've never beaten.

Peter Bukowski from Locked on Packers joins us to preview the matchup and the progress both teams have made since Week 1.

Taking emotion out of Chicago Bears decisions on futures of Justin Fields, Matt Eberflus Jan 03, 2024

Show notes

The discourse about what the Chicago Bears should do with Matt Eberflus and Justin Fields is getting out of control, and it will be important for Ryan Poles to take emotion out of the decision, regardless of what happens this week against the Green Bay Packers.

The most important thing is not what the fans want or what the players want. It's what's best for the team.

Did Matt Eberflus save his job with Chicago Bears win over Atlanta Falcons? Jan 02, 2024

Show notes

The Chicago Bears put together their strongest all-around performance of the season in their win over the Atlanta Falcons, and it will go a long way toward Matt Eberflus keeping his job as head coach.

It was also one of Justin Fields' best games of the year and another dominating performance from a defense that we shouldn't take for granted.
