Sorry to repeat the same stuff over and over here fellas but the Bears continue to make the same dumb mistakes over and over. You HAD JIM FREAKIN HARBAUGH THERE FOR THE TAKING!! And you passed on him for Flus and Waldron??? Are you fkn stupid???
Bears can't change what's already happened. But I wonder if this thing can still be fixed right this time. But I don't know how or with who.
There's two kinds of coaches (and two kinds of QBs): A) those elite few that can win regularly and B) everyone else. There's no in-between. There's no "good enough" or "adequate". There's no "average but maybe he will grow into the job" by year 3.
Everyone hates changing coaches just like everyone hates starting over again at QB. Same reason why a large chunk of Bears fans wanted to "build around Fields" this past winter (just think for a minute now how dumb that was back then--he's already been benched for an aging vet with no upside).
My response to that is simple--get the hell over it. If Flus isn't the guy, then he needs to go without delay. If Caleb flops, then yeah you draft a new QB in 2 years. I don't care if you go through 16 head coaches and 22 QBs, you keep moving on until you find the RIGHT GUY. You keep changing until you find what you are looking for. You don't "settle".
PS:
I'm not advocating dumping a HC after one tough loss or cutting a rookie QB after a few bad games. We are reasonable here. Flus is in year 3 and even Poles said "it's time to WIN" this August. There's a reasonable grace period I agree. That period is over by now. Flus has now blown 4 late-4thQ leads in epic fashion. He's lost 4 games in which the odds of winning were 95%+. 3 of those losses were directly coaching-related.
Waldron has called two of the dumbest, most wildly inappropriate, most-Uber-Nagy plays at the goal line I have ever seen this season. Both calls were as dumb or dumber than Pete Carroll in the SB calling a pass from the 1 when he had Marshawn Lynch and a timeout in his back pocket.
No joke, with a modicum of common sense coaching management, Bears are 6-1 right now. Nothing genius, mind you. Nothing earth-shattering. Just simple, good-fundamental in-game coaching. That's all that was required.
PPS:
In my mind, the only way Flus can save his job for 2025 is to beat Green Bay at least once and go 3-3 minimum in division. With what I have seen from these guys, my guess is that he won't come close to accomplishing either.
I'm still having PTSD thinking about the fact that Harbaugh was sitting right there and we passed on him for these clowns.
