NFL: Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears
CHICAGO — Matt Eberflus brief stint as a head coach has been a disaster.
It has nearly been a full calendar year since the Bears last won an NFL game. Eberflus is 3-18 as a head coach, with 14 straight losses.
The Bears had the Denver Broncos on the ropes Sunday but coughed up 24 unanswered points to lose 31-28.
Eberflus got a pass last year in what was a teardown season, but it’s hard to keep the heat off during a 14-game losing streak.
With the Bears entering Thursday night as five point underdogs it very well could be consecutive loss No. 15.
Some wonder whether that will result in an end of the Eberflus experiment in Chicago.
It should, but it probably wont.
There’s no former head coach on the coaching staff, and there is no future head-coaching candidate on the list.
At this point, the best move could be to just ride out the season and make decisions once the season ends.
It simply just not a great time to be a Bears fan.
