Here’s a question:
Do you want the Bears to go 4-3 the remainder of the year taking 1 of 2 from the Lions thus showing tangible improvement? The danger is Flus comes back
- or -
Go 1-6 the rest of the year and have a new coaching staff with potentially Poles gone?
Pretty sure the majority pick the latter.
I want the team to win. I’ll do whatever it takes to win, but do I think that Eberflus is the guy that’ll happen with? Likely not. I feel like firing him is the best move because it’s looking like Justin Fields may not be here in Chicago next season especially if Carolina gifts us the first overall pick. Unless Fields goes out there and balls out for the last 7 games assuming he comes back, they aren’t gonna keep him. I really want him to be the guy too, in an ideal world we keep Fields and just keep on building bc around him instead of starting over.
But, I don’t want Eberflus/Poles to draft a QB, then get fired and then it becomes a thing of “well this new HC and GM didn’t draft this QB!” Because that’s already happened twice, with Nagy it was the literal reason why they let him stay because “he didn’t want Mitch” and people actually thought that with a better QB Nagy would be amazing (laughable lol), I mean look at the dude in KC rn, that offense isn’t good even with Mahomes.
Overall, I just want to see if we can retain Fields, if so good for the future but if not, fire Eberflus and bring in an offensive mind to develop that QB.
