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?

Indianapolis fans had no issues letting him go which is always bad.

He was a DC without any elite tier units and his whole strategy was utilize an elite front 4 to generate pressure and rely on talent > creative scheme and gameplan which is hilarious

Was a bad hire from the beginning
