I imagine they have more influence than we know. The level of failure noted above is staggering. Absolutely. Remember it was Polian helping with hires and or always hiring from within. Guys like Trace Armstrong have way too much pull in the organization for not being part of it. Armstrong was Nagy's agent, Flus' agent, Poles' agent, and Waldron's agent, maybe more. That is a huge problem if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wanted Flus gone last year, you were right on him being bad but he wasnt. If you find joy in us losing and every everyone looking bad is your thing, good luck with that. I dont live my life that way. I supported Fields last yr, even thou I noticed his flawes, because he was our QB. I am very happy now we have Caleb and hope of a top 5 QB but I like when we win. i was at a B-GB party with 12 people/half and half fandom. As we we went up in the game, I have been programmed to think something might happen at the end of the game. I dont look it as a reward because I was right. Im not rooting for the Bears to lose. Now that we have Caleb, Im not in tankathon mode. What Im rooting for is for Caleb to develop, and to win as many games as possible this year. All Im saying is even if we win more games I want the coaching staff gone in the offseason, and probably Poles too. ANd that is because I am rooting for us to win as many games as possible in the future. This isnt about me being right, its about Eberflus being terrible.

Plus they seem to be one of the more woke team in a woke league, which doesn’t thrill me either. Maybe if people stopped watching something would change?

He is a bottom 10 HC that will never get this team into the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What bothers me more than in game stuff has been his choices of coaches he is responable of bringing in. Poles has shown a lot of trust in him to sign off on these picks but Poles is a smart man and has to see his flaes. Loyalty is a good trait but we are ready to take the next step that will leave Flus behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyalty is a good trait but we are ready to take the next step that will leave Flus behind. So now we have to sift thru the noise and figure out if Poles is actually good or not because we know the answer on Flus, it has never been more obvious that he is just a boob. For Poles, here are his 1-4th round draft picks, you have to hit on most of these and the 1st rounders have to become close to Pro Bowl level players: 2022 - Gordon - should've been OL Brisker - On IR Jones Jr - released 2023 - Wright - when not hurt, he is not playing like a top 10 pick, could've had Jalen Carter here Dexter - has improved from his rookie year, but still just a rotational guy Stevenson - showed some flashes in his rookie year, but now is the worst CB in the NFL Pickens - waste of a pick, should've been OL Johnson - decent backup RB Scott - healthy scratch all season in year 2 2024 - Williams - no-brainer pick, but Daniels and Nix have outperformed him so far, something to watch Odunze - I love Odunze, but Poles could've traded down and gotten Thomas Jr AND another pick that could've been used on an Edge, DT, or OL Amegadjie - Head scratcher with his known injury while other OL went after him are playing at elite levels. Could've had Goncalves, Zinter, Puni, Bortolini, or Limmer (6th round). If you take a step back, that is terrible roster construction, especially when the big money when to your MLB in FA. Edmunds and Allen take up $45M in cap space. Walker makes close to $9M. None of those guys are playing up to their contracts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
