Bears off to rough start under coach Matt Eberflus, but he can still change their course

Bears coach Matt Eberflus sounded like he was ready to rethink anything and everything after steering the team to one of its most disheartening losses in recent memory.

It’s hard to pinpoint exactly what was the worst part about losing 12-7 to the Commanders on Thursday.

Was it the meager point total? Getting inside the opponent’s 5-yard line and failing to score three times? Seeing across-the-board malfunctions on offense, ranging from poor protection to a head-scratching game plan?

Or the underlying embarrassment of such a pitiful performance coming at home against a really bad team?

There are countless other nominations, but the bottom line is that it looked like the low point of the Eberflus era.
