2024 Chicago Bears Season Thread

It would be easier to determine if it's because of the offensive line and him hearing foot steps....if we actually had a offensive line
His accuracy was one of his strengths in college.
That's why I keep saying they need to get more passes to the TE and backs.
Quick assist for you fam, this team has quit on Eberflus…..
Special Teams coach Richard Hightower.
Washington or Hightower
... but more realistically, they have to take play calling away from Waldron now. They have other people on staff that have done it before so they need to pivot to something else right now.
How would that improve the team?
You might as well let him finish the year
If you get rid of Flus and Waldron that would be the epitome of stupidity and you're hurting Caleb and a bunch of other young players which could be long term.
You fire a coach midseason, for the betterment of the team
I think Flus will finish the year.
But if they did make a change before that, I wouldn't be mad at this point. I don't think we'd be any worse off, not when the people responsible for the preparation, strategies, and decision making are this horrible at their jobs.
They're already hurting Caleb by not protecting him, not designing plays to get the ball out of his hands quicker, and leaving him in the game with 2 mins left to be tee'd off on, etc etc.
We're on a trajectory to lose every single game left on the schedule. How much worse do you think it can get than it is right now?
I heard they interviewed him for OC though. If they wouldn't hire him for that, I doubt they'd hire him for HC.
His two worst decision was keeping Flus and building that O line. Other than that he's been ok but he definitely deserves the heat he's getting right now. His main priority is developing Caleb and he's failed him with the coaching decisions and how he's built that O line.
I do.
The team has talent but they are making mistakes and not being put in the best positions to succeed. I blame coaching.
Poles focused on weapons last year. He could've sign a decent vet like Connor Williams instead of bargain shopping. Even still, I didn't expect the line to look this bad. You bargain shop for depth, not starters. I get that he was trying to put Caleb in the best position to succeed, but the damn kid has been running for his life most games due to the shitty line play.
Poles should feel some heat but I don't think his job is on the line. Flus on the other hand, appears to be as good as gone. Coaches will be lining up to coach Caleb and even if Allen isn't here next year, Moore, Kemet, Odunze and Swift are good weapons to have once the line is straightened out.
Pace was given time and drove the team into the ground with his win now decisions. I can clearly see that Poles has replenished talent. The offensive line needs more talent. I expect it to be addressed this off season.
I also have a hard time seeing the Bears win another game this year with the injuries and coaching.
He drafted a project in the third round for a position of need
and a fuckin punter
and a wide receiver after trading for Kenan
We've waited for him to address the offensive line for two years
and we're probably losing Teven this offseason
For #4, I’d argue that the justification given for the play call BEFORE the Hail Mary is what broke this team. Instead of Flus just saying “I fucked up and I shouldn’t have rushed 3 and give Daniels all day to find McLaurin” he didn’t take blame. THAT killed him as a leader with these dudes IMO.
what's been Poles biggest free agent offensive line signing...Nate fucking Davis
Velus Jones a 28 year wide receiver with no hands....hell no, I'm not sure how you dudes trust him to do anything
The best thing he's done as a GM is benefitting from an organization even more fucked up...Carolina

Caleb was a WANT, not a need. Was he SO locked in on Caleb that he didn't even entertain offers for the 1st pick? I have heard some pundits say that passing up on qb's in consecutive drafts is a fireable offense. Also, Fields was taking too long to develop considering the money he'd be due soon. That may be an argument, but aren't the Bears paying Keenan Allen, Nate Davis and Everett the TE about $40 million combined? The could have rolled with Fields another year or signed Russell Wilson-only making about 3 mil this season and had the Bears on his list and fortified the team elsewhere.
2 of the best players on the team-Kmet and Jaylon Johnson were Ryan Pace picks.
Would y'all hate Anthony Lynn as our next HC:

We needed a punter and Taylor is 3rd in punts in the league
I cant complain about him, 21 of those punts where inside the 20.
I agree Flus and Waldron gotta go, not midseason tho.
I had to turn the game off, I seriously couldnt take it. Shit is beyond heartbreaking and absolutely ridiculous.
Kyle is right. I'm not even upset anymore. I'm numb. I stopped paying attention at halftime. After the first quarter I knew it was the same shit.
and we have our answer about Waldron being fired
Bears fans, we're officially in a abusive relationship....and we keep going back to our abuser
