Another week, another ugly Bears loss. And after this, there’s no question: Matt Eberflus has to go. The issues with his coaching aren’t new, but this game has only confirmed that he’s not the guy to take this team forward. The Bears have talent on the roster, but it’s being wasted every week, and the responsibility for that starts at the top.

Lack of Adjustments and Poor Game Management

From the first whistle, Eberflus’s Bears have shown a disturbing trend: failing to adjust. The offense looked flat, and the defense seemed to be playing without a coherent game plan. Adjustments are what separate good coaches from great ones, and under Eberflus, we rarely see this team pivot effectively during games.

His clock management is also an ongoing issue, costing us crucial yards and points. How many more timeouts do we have to burn just to avoid delays of game or to figure out where everyone is supposed to be? Watching his sideline presence, you don’t get a sense of a coach with a clear strategy or a handle on the game.

The Team Isn’t Improving—It’s Going Backward

Great coaches build a culture of constant improvement, but this Bears team has stagnated. There’s no development in the fundamentals, and it’s impossible to ignore how the defense, Eberflus’s supposed specialty, has failed to deliver time and time again. Players aren’t being put in a position to succeed, and it shows in their inconsistent, often chaotic performances.

Failure to Use Key Players

Even beyond play-calling and game management, Eberflus’s personnel decisions have been a disaster. We’ve got solid players who aren’t being utilized properly. Nate Davis is a liability (and frankly, why is he still starting?), yet we don’t see the kind of accountability you’d expect from a winning program. Eberflus seems disconnected from what’s happening on the field—and it’s showing in the losses.

The Verdict Is Clear

At the end of the day, the job of an NFL head coach is to win games and make the most of his roster. Matt Eberflus has shown week after week that he’s not capable of doing either. For the Bears to turn this season around, they need someone who can inspire this team, make smart game-time adjustments, and maximize our players’ talents.

It’s time for the Bears to make a change—Eberflus out.
