The Bears are a conservative organization. They have a new GM and a new President. Poles knew from the get go that this was a complete tear down and rebuild. He probably said as much to Eberflus when he was hired. In general coaches are usually given 3 years to turn an organization around, though that’s becoming less of a norm than it was 15-20 years ago.
So, yeah, there’s a dozen reasons to think Eberflus will be back for year 3. It will all come down to whether Poles thinks Eberflus has been irredeemably bad as an HC or not. We can point at a handful of outwardly apparent red flags, but we don’t know if there are mitigating circumstances.
I think he’s gone, but it’s absolutely in doubt.
I can see flus staying for next year if he scapegoats getsy and getsy gets canned.
Yeah no shot both of them stay and to be honest if I have to choose one of them to go, I think I choose Getsy.
