Bears coach Matt Eberflus praised his team’s passion and energy. He said the team’s execution was “really good in spots,” and that was “a big improvement.”
It was quite the take on Chicago’s 14th consecutive loss dating to last season, one in which the Bears blew a 21-point lead during an ugly finish that included a couple of questionable decisions by Eberflus and his coaching staff.
Chicago had a 28-21 lead when Fields was stripped on a sack by Nik Bonitto. Jonathan Cooper returned the fumble 35 yards for a tying touchdown with 6:55 left. “You get him up there like you’re going for it right away and you freeze, and you call timeout right before,” Eberflus said. “And then you get your best play available, because it gives you a little bit more time to get that best play going and making sure that ... we’re all good, and we’re set up for that moment.”
Eberflus said he decided to go for it because he liked the way the team was running the ball. Asked about the decision to run out of shotgun instead of having Fields under center, Eberflus said they felt that was the best play at the time. Chicago and Carolina are the last winless teams in the NFL through Week 4, and the Bears own the Panthers’ first-round selection in the 2024 draft. But that’s cold comfort for a Bears franchise dealing with all sorts of issues.
