What was the consensus on the Eberflus hire when it first happened? (alien.top)

I’ll be honest, I didn’t even know who Matt Eberflus was before the Bears hired him. I then saw the notification and didn’t really know what to think, but seeing that we hired a defensive minded guy for (at the time) a QB going into his second season had me confused.

I thought maybe it would work because anything was better than Nagy (at that point lol), but here we are today. I think a lot of fans didn’t like the hire at first and still don’t like it obviously.

Who did the Bears pass up on/who is someone they could’ve had if they didn’t hire Eberflus?

Me personally most defensive guys usually field a physical team I was expecting that at the very least.

Most defensive guys field disciplined teams, I was also expecting that.

The Luke Getsy hire is the one that bothered me. Forget the division stuff, me personally I couldn’t hire an offensive guy who worked with a top tier QB after he was established not before. I need the guy who makes the Baker Mayfields and the Geno Smiths look better than they are.
