Matt Eberflus: ‘We’re starting to create the culture we want’ | Chicago Bears

You say that now but watch Bears fans in the middle of the season saying fire Matt I know not every bears fans are like that but I know there are some that would say that

@Electric believe me he is 10 times better then Matt Nagy

@Cristian Gomez I know

As long as he calls plays that fields can throw more than 5+ yards we good.

You really don’t understand the why’s??? 🤣🤣🐻⬇️

That’s because Eberflus knows what he’s taking about, Paul. Nagy was in over his head — and relied on the flim flam.

First he says they were notified early on. Then he blames the players going to hard. Says they had a meeting with players about it. Of course, it happens again and then he says he doesn’t know how it was found out.

I like Flus, but he lied, sidestepped, and blamed the players without taking any ownership of the issue. Really lame.

I think your Caps lock is broken

just like everyone with nagy

That’s because the Chicago sports media are all weasels that have never played the game — other than Madden NFL.

@Thomas Gena It could also be that the Bears organization threatens to take credentials away for asking questions they don’t like. I believe this is why JJ Stankevitz left the Chicago media market for Indianapolis.

@Jose Bahena Absolutely. These WRs have more talent than the ones that Mitch Trubisky had in 2018, when the Bears went 12-4.

@Thomas Gena I would say they are about the same. And that year they went 12-4 because of the defense. They will be lucky if they get 6 wins. Don’t believe the reports. The o-line and d-line need significant work. The Bears will be good in two years. At that point they will detrone Rodgers.

@Jose Bahena You forget Jose, no more Matt Nagy killing drives in (or approaching) the Red Zone, by insisting the offense run plays with J.P. Holtz on the field.
Now you may think that Holtz was fine (a good blocker?). Simply not true. Plays that involve inept blockers make life a lot more difficult for the o-line (I speak from experience). And you may not realize it (the Chicago sports media “weasels” never did) that Nagy’s use of J.P. Hotlz was “a tell” to the opposing defense. The defender assigned to cover the TE could come up in the box; act as a free safety or “monster man” or Mike LB — because there was no chance Hotlz would break though and catch a pass for a long gain — Nagy only threw to Holtz one time in two years — J.P.’s last 29 games — ONE TIME. And that pass was incomplete!
So, you and the media can blame the offensive line — but under Nagy’s silly schemes (and I haven’t even mentioned Juan Castillo and Mike Furrey’s inept position coaching) even solid players like Kyle Long looked confused.
The Bears are a better team, today simply through addition (of H.I.T.S.) by subtraction (of Nagy & Co.).
Want proof? Watch how quickly this, largely Ryan Pace roster, comes together under Eberflus, Getsy and Morgan.
You are.right about the D-line, however. But that was Ryan Poles little ego trip — losing: Akiem, Eddie, and Bilal, without even a try.. At least Poles got something for Khalil — and he still might sign Ogunjobi (although the Jets passed on Larry, too) or trade for Da’Ron Payne (Poles can only take so much money with him to next year). So, we’ll see.

@Thomas Gena I agree Nagy was beyond predictable and his play calling was abysmal. But the team is still full of inexperienced players. I think people are underestimating the Lions. Everyone thinks that they will be two easy Ws for the Bears but I am not too sure. I will bet you $20 that the Bears don’t get more than 7 wins.

@Jose Bahena I appreciate a man who puts his money where his mouth is — probably because I don’t (bet, that is).
But, I think you’re right about the Lions, Jose. As a matter of fact, I was having a similar conversation regarding the Lions, and expressed my concern that if they replaced Goff with Mitchell Trubisky, the Bears and the rest of the NFC might be in for an unpleasant surprise.
The Lions have quietly added some quality players — and Mitch would be affordable, and allow them to use a future first-round selection on a position player other than QB.
If you still think the Bears are a 7-10 team (I’m thinking 10-7) after training camp, let me know. I can aways use the money.
Enjoy the season!
