Eberflus: "Hey, can I talk to you for a sec?"
Chicago media: "Yeah, hey!"
Eberflus: "Hey, um, I came up with a really great idea, dude."
Chicago media: "Yeah?"
Eberflus: "I'm gonna play both sides."
Chicago media: "Why would you tell me that?"
Eberflus: "Should I not have?"
Chicago media: "Probably shouldn't, because if you're trying to keep a secret from me, well, now I know."
Eberflus: "Should I tell the Panthers?"
Chicago media: "No, I don't think you should tell either side because if you're trying to play both sides and they both know you're not playing anybody."
Eberflus: "What should I do now?"
Chicago media: "I don't give a shit. Why are you here?"

Calling it now. Our next head coach is going to be Frank Smith. He’s 42, the Dolphins OC, and was the Bears TE coach from 2015 to 2017. This will initially seem like a great hire because he’s young, he’s an offensive minded guy, and he’s coming out of the Mike McDaniel offense. However, he’s never had to call his own offense and probably isn’t ready to be a HC yet. He’s only in his second year as an OC under a genius who calls his own offense. He’s a TE and OL coach by trade. He will fucking fail royally and we’ll be in the exact same spot in like 3 years. This is what the McCaskeys do. They get so close to getting things right and then just left turn off a fucking cliff.
I’d love for us to just once have a GM who had an ass load of cap space and draft picks and didn’t royally fuck up on the daily.
I wonder what George S. Halas would say if he could see what his descendants have made of his once revered NFL franchise.
I’m terrified that all it’s gonna take for Flus to keep his job is just win one more game. He can technically sell this season as “progress” over a literal tank attempt last year.
