Matt Eberflus' awful postgame quote proves Bears are stuck in hellish timeloop
To be honest, I'm not sure why this blog is necessary. I'd argue it's not. Bears fans don't need to be reminded of the pain that they endure year after year while still in the middle of enduring it. I sympathize with any group of people that purposefully decided to cheer for a football team perpetually stuck in the mud – except for Jets fans – so it brings me no joy to have to remind everyone what the mud looks like.
But the job's the job, and when particularly painful Bears content appears on the internet, it's my duty to keep it on the internet for way longer than necessary. For instance, you may have watched Matt Eberflus' postgame press conference after the Bears' painful Week 11 loss to the Packers and thought to yourself, hey, this sounds awfully familiar. Almost like you've heard that exact same answer several times before? And guess what. You have! The ... enthusiastic ... folks at CHGO decided to point out just how hellish of a timeloop the Bears are stuck in, and it's a tough watch.

Remember that no one's actually making you continue reading. There's fresh oxygen and blue skies right outside your door!
Matt Eberflus' answers sound a lot like Matt Nagy's answers, which sound a lot like Marc Trestman's answers
Here's the clip that will absolutely make you throw a temper tantrum today. We can't embed it for *~reasons~* so I took the liberty of transcribing all three answers for you. That way you can get twice as mad! And who doesn't want to boil over with rage first thing on Monday afternoon?
Eberflus: "They were loading the box there. So you could say you could do that for sure, maybe get a couple more yards. But you also risk fumbling and different things there."
Nagy: "I'm not even going to get into that. I have zero thought of running the ball and taking the chance of fumbling the football. They know you're running the football, so you lose three or four yards. So that wasn't even in our process as coaches to think about that."
Trestman: "It's very simple. Once we got inside the 30 yard line, we were going to kick it. We were well within Robbie's range ... With all the things that had happened throughout the game, including Minnesota's failure to make a field goal when they went back with penalities, we were in great position right there to kick it and finish the game. That's the decision I made in the best interest of the team."
At this point, I'm not sure what to add. I figure no one even got this far in the blog after rage quitting somewhere in the middle of Nagy's defiant nonsense. I'm sorry I put you through this.
