Matt Eberflus head coach of chicago Bears, recently declared that he would shortly be retiring due to
They would be continuing a cycle that began in 2017 if they traded him and selected a different quarterback in the draft. Mitch Trubisky, a quarterback, was chosen by the Bears after they moved up from third to second place in the draft. Then, a year later, they sacked John Fox, their head coach. Then Matt Nagy was given permission to move up and choose Justin Fields with the 11th overall pick in the 2021 draft. After a year, Nagy was let go.
In 2024, Eberflus will begin his third season and have the chance to select the top quarterback in the class without having to move up because the Bears already own the first overall pick from their deal with the Carolina Panthers the previous season.

Nevertheless, if Chicago’s victory total doesn’t increase in 2024, it might be Eberflus’ final season. This implies that the person appointed as both offensive and defensive coordinators, following Alan Williams’ abrupt exit in the third game, will only have one season to get everything together.
The goal is that Fields and the new offensive coordinator, Caleb Williams of USC, will fit well and quickly if the Bears trade Fields and select the best quarterback in this year’s class. The Bears would be able to plug any gaps left by the remaining players to shield Williams as much as possible, especially with the rest of the squad in reasonable form and the money, both draft and cash. The Bears would certainly hope for success with a developing quarterback in Chicago, but Williams is positioned for both short- and long-term success. That is the only thing that could prevent the Bears from repeating the cycle and potentially losing Eberflus after the 2024 season.
