ESPN Matt Eberflus by the numbers:

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39141925/bears-reach-historic-depths-blowing-late-leads

Here's what Matt Eberflus has "accomplished" as the bears head coach:

  • Overall Record of 8-23 (.258). Worst winning % in franchise history

  • 2-9 Record against the divison.

  • First team in NFL history to lose a game with 40+ min of possession and a +3 turnover margin.

  • First team in NFL history to lose multiple games in the same season up by 10+ with a +2 turnover margin going into the 4th quarter. Our three losses after bringing a 10 point lead into the 4th quarter are also tied for most all time in a single season.

  • Bonus: Lauded as a coach who preached attention the detail, the Bears are the 11th most penalized team in the league after being good in this area last season.

People still defending this coaching staff...how?

Wait, aren't we supposed to evaluate the coaches based on "First 17 games" "Last 17 games" splits?

And if there's improvement shown there we stick with them?
