Lost in coach Matt Eberflus’ ridiculous claim that going 2-2 in the last four games is a sign the Bears are moving in the right direction was what sure sounded like a built-in excuse.
“Obviously, we had an injury to our starting quarterback,” Eberflus said after firing running backs coach David Walker in another melodramatic episode at Halas Hall on Wednesday. “We had a backup come in and win a game for us.”
After beating the Raiders, then losing to the Chargers, undrafted rookie Tyson Bagent is expected to start again Sunday against the Saints at the Superdome.
