Matt Eberflus' tenure with the Chicago Bears is reaching Marc Trestman levels of dysfunction

The Chicago Bears' 19-3 loss to the New England Patriots seems to have opened the door to Matt Eberflus' tenure as the Bears' head coach resembling the dysfunctional tenure of Marc Trestman as the team's head coach.

The Bears' dysfunction was on full display this week. After avoiding making a decision on Shane Waldron as the team's offensive coordinator on Monday, the team sent a press release out on Tuesday that announced Waldron's firing.

One of the reasons it is believed that Eberflus looked for every opportunity to keep Waldron on the Bears' coaching staff is the fact that they share the same agent in Trace Armstrong. Armstrong also represents Bears' general manager Ryan Poles as well as the team's former offensive coordinator, Luke Getsy.

Armstrong's intertwining with the Bears' brass and coaching staff seems to have added to the confusing messaging that has originated from Halas Hall this season. It was only more evident that the Bears were doing Armstrong a favor in hiring Waldron when Thomas Brown held his first press conference as the team's offensive coordinator on Wednesday. Brown may not fix the issues with the Bears' offense but he is clearly a better communicator than Waldron. It makes you wonder how Poles and Eberflus hired Waldron last January after interviewing both coaches.

Still, this move is hard to get excited about for many fans as Eberflus is likely to remain the Bears' head coach until the end of the season. Firing Waldron was his last-ditch effort to save his job. And Poles gave him a pass once again.

For the second consecutive game, Eberflus kept Caleb Williams in the game despite the fact that the score dictated the game was over, and the offensive line could not protect the rookie quarterback.

The total disregard for Williams’ health and offensive incompetence is too much to overlook at this point. The fans' disdain for Eberflus and Poles is becoming dangerously similar to the Marc Trestman era exactly a decade ago. Who could have thought that it would repeat again? Only the Bears, I guess.
