A Chicago Bears season that looked extremely promising just a few weeks ago has quickly turned sour. After a heartbreaking loss to the Washington Commanders on a last-second Hail Mary, the Bears were blown out by the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9. The team hit rock bottom on defense when they allowed a 53-yard touchdown […]

While the Chicago Bears fans pine away for Ben Johnson to become their next head coach, rookie quarterback Caleb Williams and his star receiver are having chemistry issues on the field. But amid calls for the firing of head coach Matt Eberflus, a revelation about his contract came to light. It appears Eberflus has a […]

We’ve officially reached a point in the NFL season that fans of the Chicago Bears have gotten to be all too familiar with — hoping and praying that a new head coach will soon be on the way. It happened with Marc Trestman. It happened with John Fox. It happened with Matt Nagy. And oh-so-predictably, […]

Following a disappointing 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals last Sunday, Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore has seemingly become the embodiment of the frustration and disappointment that surrounds this team. Not only did Moore make very telling comments about whether Bears coach Matt Eberflus had lost the locker room, his commitment has been called […]

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus clarified on Monday that wide receiver DJ Moore’s unexpected mid-play exit in Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals was due to an ankle injury, putting to rest speculation about the team’s morale. Eberflus confirmed through NFL reporter Ari Meirov that Moore rolled his ankle, forcing him to leave the […]

The Chicago Bears have dropped their last two games and might have dropped Matt Eberflus’s impact as head coach, according to DJ Moore. Despite Moore not being certain about if his head coach lost the team, he echoed that sentiment, according to NBC Sports. “I want to say no,” Moore said. “The message yesterday was […]

The Chicago Bears are coming off their worst performance of the 2024 season in Week 9, suffering a demoralizing 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in yet another road defeat for head coach Matt Eberflus. At least in Week 10, the Bears will be back at home to face the New England Patriots. Just a […]

The Chicago Bears came into the 2024 season with a new sense of life. They seemed to luck out in the NFL Draft, thanks to a pick swap in the previous year’s event, which allowed them to draft one of the best quarterback prospects in years, USC’s Caleb Williams, at No. 1 overall, as well […]

On the very same day that former Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy was relieved of his duties as the offensive coordinator of the Las Vegas Raiders, most Bears fans found themselves hopeful were that Matt Eberflus would make a similar decision regarding current offensive coordinator Shane Waldron. It didn’t take long for Waldron to come under […]

There was no holding back from Matt Eberflus on why he kept Caleb Williams in the game during the final stages of the Chicago Bears’ 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9. In the fourth quarter, Williams limped off with an ankle injury, but played out the final drive despite the huge deficit. […]

During the closing seconds of the Chicago Bears game against the Arizona Cardinals, Caleb Williams limped off the field after already being down 29-9. Williams crawled and rolled over, holding on to the back of his leg. He then got to his feet and limped off the field, as many people were concerned about the […]

Just a little heads up coming right out of the gate… as a Chicago Bears fan myself, I can promise you, this Most to Blame column is going to be a little unhinged, not only because that’s exactly how I’m feeling after an embarrassing 29-9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, but also because I’m positive that’s […]

The Chicago Bears were hoping to go into the locker room at halftime of their Week 9 game vs. the Arizona Cardinals with a 14-9 deficit, hoping they could find their stride and reverse their deficit in the final 30 minutes. But just before halftime, when it appeared the Cardinals were content to run out […]

For the last week, the buzzword inside of the Chicago Bears organization has been ‘accountability.’ In fact, a quick Google search of ‘Chicago Bears accountability,’ will yield all sorts of results, ranging from whether Tyrique Stevenson has taken enough accountability for his blunder on the soul-crushing Hail Mary loss to the Commanders, or whether Doug […]

One week after Tyrique Stevenson infamously played a big part in the Chicago Bears Week 8 loss to the Washington Commanders, the cornerback will not be on the field to start the game with his team. Head coach Matt Eberflus made the decision to bench the 24-year-old for one game, per Ian Rapoport. “Sources say […]

The Chicago Bears were feeling good — really good — as they appeared to be improving to 5-2 with a low-scoring win over the Washington Commanders. And then Jayden Daniels hurled a hail mary as time expired, elating Commanders fans, depressing Bears fans, and potentially angering rookie quarterback Caleb Williams’ father. Since the loss, Bears […]

As bad as the Chicago Bears’ last second Week 8 loss to the Washington Commanders was, the aftermath of the embarrassing defeat has been worse. After Jayden Daniels connected on a walk-off Hail Mary touchdown as time expired, players and analysts alike have lined up to drag Matt Eberflus. And Chicago’s head coach has made […]

It’s been a taxing week for Matt Eberflus and the Chicago Bears. The team suffered a devastating loss to the Washington Commanders on Jayden Daniels’ walk-off Hail Mary touchdown. The final 25 seconds of the Bears’ Week 8 defeat revealed several cracks in Chicago’s facade. Eberflus has been dragged by players and pundits alike, as […]

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus has received a lot of backlash after their loss against the Washington Commanders and how they finished the game. Jayden Daniels was able to throw a Hail Mary that was tipped and then caught in the endzone by Noah Brown, but the way the Bears handled the play was […]

The Chicago Bears took a tough loss against the Washington Commanders in Week 8 because of a Hail Mary, and some of the players have called out the team and the coaching staff. One of those players was Jaylon Johnson, and he didn’t hold back his thoughts in an appearance on 670 The Score. “At […]

Despite a 4-3 start to 2024, Chicago Bears fans are beginning to put pressure on head coach Matt Eberflus. The 54-year-old is just 14-27 overall in his Bears tenure and saw the tension reach a boiling point after the team’s devastating last-second loss to the Washington Commanders in Week 8. As conversations with the Bears […]

How Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus can still call himself head coach of the Chicago Bears on Monday is somewhat baffling. If Chairman of the Board George McCaskey had any guts, he would have “recommended” to owner Virginia Halas McCaskey that Eberflus be let go of his position after the Bears’ disastrous loss to […]

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus reveals what his defensive back should have done on the Hail Mary play, and D.J. Moore broke his silence on the play that cost the Bears a victory. But Colin Cowherd forgives not, destroying the Bears’ coaching staff after the brutal Week 8 loss to the Commanders. Cowherd pulled […]

The Chicago Bears lost in devastating fashion to the Washington Commanders in Week 8 on a Jayden Daniels Hail Mary.

Athletes and coaches must walk a fine line when speaking about a disastrous loss. It is important to acknowledge the mistake without publicly reprimanding anyone, so as to keep locker room morale at a reasonable level going forward. Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus stood by his team, but fans would have liked him to […]

The Chicago Bears pulled off an all-time fumble on Sunday. After the Bears’ defense kept them in a game that they almost certainly should’ve lost due to the level of offensive ineptitude that they displayed for most of the day, the offense caught fire. All of a sudden, Caleb Williams and the Bears offense could […]

When a team suffers a devastating loss in the final seconds of the game, the mind typically wonders into unfortunate places, namely the land of regret. “What could we have done differently on that play?” “Would the outcome have changed if we converted that opportunity?” The Chicago Bears should find it unbearable to review the […]

The NFL got exactly what it wanted when it flexed the Bears vs. Commanders game into the late window. The Chicago Bears almost completed an impressive second-half comeback against the surging Washington Commanders. Unfortunately, they gave up a touchdown on a Hail Mary as time expired and lost the game 18-15. Bears coach Matt Eberflus […]

Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels squared off in a battle of the top two picks on Sunday. The Washington Commanders came out on top, beating the Chicago Bears 18-15 in Week 8. Why are Williams, Tyrique Stevenson, and Matt Eberflus most to blame for this loss? The Bears had a brutal first three quarters on […]

Everyone knows the confident person who says, “nah, I’m just going to wing it,” the night before a big presentation. Their aplomb is admirable, but it can sometimes be rendered completely invalid by the time the demonstration is done. The Chicago Bears’ offensive coordinator learned this the hard way after a rough start to the […]

After a pair of losses to the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts in Weeks 2 and 3, the Chicago Bears were able to get back on track in Week 4 against the Rams, and now enter a Week 5 matchup with the Carolina Panthers as favorites to win the game and get back above .500 […]

Following a few shaky performances to begin a much-hyped pro career, on Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams quieted some of the naysayers who were concerned that his trajectory was looking a little too similar to Bryce Young’s in Carolina. In Chicago’s 24-18 win over the short-handed Rams, Williams had his cleanest and most […]

Just three games into his rookie season, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has already shown a tremendous amount of growth and maturity in his game even in the most frustrating moments of his young career. Williams, who threw for a Bears rookie record of 363 yards in a Week 3, still has his flaws, but […]

The Chicago Bears took a Week 3 loss against the Indianapolis Colts, and there were times that the offensive play call by Shane Waldron was questioned. One of those play calls in question was late in the second quarter on a third down and goal situation, where the Bears decided to run the ball. Nothing […]

By way of a 21-16 defeat at the hands of the Indianapolis Colts, the Chicago Bears took their second consecutive loss on Sunday afternoon in what could only be described as an ugly, disjointed, and remarkably frustrating game, especially if you are, as I am, a fan of the Chicago Bears. It’s the third such game […]

The Chicago Bears and Caleb Williams thought those better days would come sooner than later after the 2024 NFL Draft. Now the Windy City is staring the prospect of a long, frustrating season square in the face following a brutal loss to the Anthony Richardson-led Indianapolis Colts. Even the offensive line is starting to let […]

In the head honcho chess match between Matt Eberflus and Shane Steichen, the Indianapolis Colts coach came out on top this time. Caleb Williams may have been throwing out passes like they were hotcakes but it was not getting the Chicago Bears anywhere. This is where Anthony Richardson and the rest of his weapons took […]

Caleb Williams was a gunslinger against the Indianapolis Colts. The rookie was tasked by Matt Eberflus to carry the Chicago Bears offense through a lot of air attacks and he did not disappoint. In fact, they may have been leaning on him to produce a little too much but it was not a problem for […]
