This is the worst era in Chicago Bears history

JB and Lester usually have a cooled-down recap of the Bears game, but this will not be that.

Groundhog day.

Hamster wheel.

Insanity.

Call it whatever you want.

The Chicago Bears are a cursed franchise, but there’s no billy goat for our fans to blame the team’s ineptitude on. This franchise has been cursed with incompetence for decades. Time and time again, they make the wrong decision, they never learn from their mistakes, and they refuse to move on when it’s obvious to the football world it’s time.

So it should come as no surprise that this franchise that tried to sell us on drafting a quarterback for an incumbent head coach instead of drafting one for a fresh regime is about to clean house. Whether that comes in season, which would be historic, or after week 18, there’s no way Matt Eberflus can survive for the 2025 season.

And speaking of historic...

In the 14 seasons between George Halas retiring & hiring Mike Ditka (1968-1981), #DaBears had a winning percentage of .399

In the 12 seasons since the Bears fired Lovie Smith, the Bears have a winning percentage of .399

Worst. Bears. Era. Ever.

JB followed up that Tweet with even more data that this is the worst era in Bears' history.

Trestman-Fox-Nagy-Flus Bears will post a worse winning percentage unless they can pull off 4 more wins down the stretch.

The NFL is a coaches & QBs league. It is not an understatement to say removing Flus & getting the right guy is the only thing that matters right now.

Check out Jeff Berckes and Lester Wiltfong here, or come hang out with us live on 2nd City Gridiron at 6:00 p.m. (CT).

Here's our usual bullet point outline of Bear & Balanced.

  • Intro: We'll both share some general thoughts about the game.
  • Trench Tribute: This is our weekly pick for lineman of the game.
  • Caught up in a numbers game: This segment features one number or statistic from the game that we found interesting.
  • The Caleb Corner: We talk about quarterback Caleb Williams.
  • Sweet Tweets: We're both active on social media — so be sure you're all following us at @gridironborn & @wiltfongjr and we highlight one Twitter interaction/Tweet each week.
  • The 3 Bears: You all know the story of the Three Bears, so in this porridge-themed portion of the show, we give our picks for the Bear that was hot, the Bear that was cold, and the Bear that was just right in the game against the Patriots.

After we wrap up the podcast portion of the show, we'll stick around to answer any questions you guys may have from the YouTube comment section in some video-exclusive content.
