I don't think anyone expected the Bears to have only 3 wins and have a 5 game losing streak this point in the season, but I definitely wasn't expecting to hear reports that Flus is losing more than just games (lockerroom) and having the league's worst defense has brought about questions of the first year HC's mental competency.

This HITS stuff only went so far with ownership and Poles might be under pressure to get this thing corrected.

I hope they can keep Gesty, but will the next HC want to keep him around or be able to choose "his guys?"

I'm going to lose my mind if I have to sit through another damn 'rebuild'.

I watched 1 half of the first preseason game and bet the under on 6.5 wins. Just call me NostraKRAZIE.

I don't think the bears win anymore this season. Flus doesn't want to play Fields, he's losing the engagement of the defense, the whole team is fed up with being called loafers. It's a disaster.

I heard in an attempt to win back Velus’s good graces, he hung out with him in that “specialty bar” in NYC and then got into in an Uber with him holding hands.

IF the rest of the games are blowouts it only means the HITS speech blah blah blah same ole press conference <we working on fundamentals blah blah> is old news and he needs to come up with new material to motivate the troops.

Wonder if he'll fire one or more of his assistants in the offseason ?? . . . hmmmmm

Eber also has a habit of sugarcoating final scores . . .

Jets smoke Bears 31-10

Eberflus "bruh's, we had a 10-7 lead at one time! so what there was 50 more minutes left to play. . ." /derp

I think it's too early to give up on him yet. His GM has traded away or released several key contributors on defense; it should be no surprise that the defense sucks right now. Let's see how they do after the cupboard isn't so bare.

We had a Walterfootball 1-16 projection thread at the start of the season.

Think a lot of people predicted a disaster of a season.

It's just hard to actually go through it.

There's no way he's on the hot seat. I could see it if things don't look drastically improved going into the 2nd quarter of next season.... perhaps THEN he could POSSIBLY be feeling a warmish seat under his bum... but tbh, Poles would probably be feeling the heat as well.

If Flus is losing lockeroom made up of guys who wouldn't even start on any other team, how is he supposed to command the respect of actual playmakers?

in my humble opinion he should have been fired six months ago.
I'm with you now. He honeydicked us with the prospect of starting the PETER MAN only to revert to SEMEN at the last second. That was the final straw for me.

Don't shoot the messenger, it was a big part of the overnight show...

Do you have a legitimate source which indicates he's losing the locker room?
