Eberflus literally went through a 14 game losing streak and didn’t lose the lockerroom. I don’t think effort or motivation has been questioned very often outside of the PAMan’s irrational rants.

Does having your player standing around taunting in the middle of the last play of the game instead of doing his job count as losing the locker room?

I guess really the players won't lose confidence in him, they will lose confidence in Stevenson

Welcome to The Dark Side.

I've been on the dark side. Eberflus should have been fired after last year but the Bears being the Bears man.

I do not hate everything. I have been very complimentary of the Bear secondary. That is Poles' bright spot.

PAMan likes the secondary. Build a statue to commemorate this moment. Secondary didn’t exactly do their job Sunday, did they? Specifically Tyrique Stevenson.

I even said that if you’re going to draft Caleb, it makes sense to fire Eberflus. Instead, for the third time in a row, The Bears will be giving a 2nd year QB a new coach and a new system.

No, that’s a one-off situation.

He didn't lose the locker room at that point because he runs a damned country club and there were no expectations (especially with Sh1t under center). It sure as hell sounds like he is losing the locker room this year after he told Lewis (I think I have this right) to go speak with Waldron about scripting plays (so much for Eberlose being the "head coach") and after this weekend where even the players are now openly criticizing his bullshit.

Some of us do not have the ability or luxury of living in fantasy land like you choose to do.

Your country club theory runs contrary to the story where players said practices were too hard. That was year one though, and that type of stuff isn’t really covered in media unless it’s making news. What it’s been like since then I can’t say with any certainty. It does seem there’s been some easing of practice habits though. But again, I’m not there. I’m merely speculating.

Flus came in with a “loaf” grading system which is supposed to be graded during practice, too. Are they still doing it? I don’t know. I actually hated the idea of a loaf system and wanted it gotten rid of. But I didn’t want accountability thrown out with it. I’d love to hear someone ask Flus these questions.

You win with good players. A head coach has a couple of key influences

Getting the players jacked up to perform
Not making basic strategic mistakes

You could be 4-13 but the coach could get a good evaluation because the players - however bad they are - are playing as hard as they can for the coach and you can see that the team strategy portion is executed properly. Clock management, down and distance calling, throwing in wrinkles when they make sense but not doing utterly head scratching Les Miles type shit. Correct player substitution and management.

3 extremely major fuckups towards the end of one game. That's pretty bad.

Flus’ defensive adjustments on average are good. But somehow we still have too many things blow up in our face late in games. We thought Waldron was making progress as an OC, but he took a big step backwards Sunday.

More and more I’m realizing Bears beat reporters kind of suck.

Dude, we have seen them suck at the beginning of each year and, with one exception, after a bye week. What more do you need to see?

This comment points out that the last defensive series was so goddamn bad that we completely forget that on 3rd and goal from the one they tried to hand the ball off to an offensive lineman

I'm still fucking pissed about this. Like, I think I'm more pissed about this than the hail mary. The absolute fucking stupidity of that was just...Fuck. I don't even know what to say about it.

I’d be willing to bet the Steelers’ defense didn’t walk off the field thinking their offense blew it.

Think of how this relates to the Bears on Sunday. Read that again a couple of times if you need to.
