Was I expecting anything different? No. Am I shocked and surprised? No. Am I sad to be Bears fan, feel they are again setting everything for another failure? You know the answer.
Yep, they had a golden opportunity to reset everything from HC on down and get everything aligned. That's the infrastructure good organizations put in place to drop a new 1st round QB into (plus players of course).
I don't understand why the Bears feel this obsessive need to hang on to remnants of a previous regime and carry that over into a new one. And that is what Flus is. Look at the list of dismissals from yesterday and this season. The only members of Flus's staff left, the people HE CHOSE, are the ST Coordinator, the assistant punt coach, and the valet who stocks Flus's locker with hair gel.
Why hang onto him? Is he really the only HC who can "unite the locker room"? Come on....that's not serious.
Poles made it clear he went to bat for Flus. He LOVES Flus. I wonder if he loves him too much to be objective.
Poles owns this now. It's 100% on him, good or bad. He better nail the OC and QB or he's a dead man walking career-wise.
I read somewhere they retained OL coach too. If true, no wonder, those guys were finger lickin good

I gave my thoughts on this. No, I don't think he is purely objective. As the season goes on and they work shoulder to shoulder, they build strong friendships and loyalties. I am sure this was a factor
