Not really surprised with today's game, I only caught bits but the chiefs going up 5 yds then falling asleep at the wheel was pretty expected.

I just don't know what this team does from here. They seemed to be having fun last year, sure as poo poo aren't now

The bears would have lost 70-0 if the chiefs didn't put that win in their pocket at the half and go home

The Broncos were losing by less than the Bears at halftime too. Could have been much worse if they weren't concerned about Mahomes' ankle

I am a ghost




Thinking about the firing Poles talk, and I'm not sure you can do it this year. I'm not a Bears fan, but it seems like if you hire a GM and fire him after 2 years under the following conditions:

1) Having allowed the previous regime an extra year to mortgage the future of the franchise - Poles's years - on a desperate Hail Mary attempt to save their jobs,
2) Stuck him with the previous regime's desperate Hail Mary attempt at drafting a QB
2) Gave him a choice of three pre-selected head coaching candidates as opposed to letting him be a part of the entire hiring process

Well, no one good's going to consider being your new GM.

I get moving on from Eberflus, dude is bad. I called it before his first year when the story about him was that he was pop quizzing the players about various Bears of ye olden times (because that's what Bill Belichick does), because that's dog poo poo that doesn't loving matter. You can tell you've got a myopic middle manager type by that kind of poo poo.

But I think you kind of have to keep Poles around, let him hire his own guy for HC and give him at minimum two more drafts to figure poo poo out. Especially since the Bears are not a top flight organization that anyone is all that excited to work for, I don't think. No one wants their boss to be demi-lich Virginia McCaskey's broodlings.

I get all the arguments in favor of moving on - Poles's drafts haven't been great, his free agent signings haven't been great - but moving on after two years for a GM severely hamstrung by the past regime... I doubt you'll attract anyone better. :shrug:

Poles probably hasn’t gotten a fair shake, but that doesn’t matter. Nothing about the NFL is fair. He hasn’t shown enough to be worth keeping around to pick your next QB and coach and determine the future of the franchise. He’s also just poisoned by his association with this utter failure. You’re worried about which GM would want the job (probably plenty, they’re looking at two very early picks in a QB heavy draft) but what coach is going to look at this Bears team and think “yup, I definitely want to go work for whoever is running that place.”
