LAKE FOREST – Matt Eberflus wasn't interested in the Bears' schedule when released a few weeks ago. However, he is aware that the schedule-makers might have given the Bears an early-season gift.
The Bears will open the season at home against the San Francisco 49ers before traveling to Lambeau Field to face the Green Bay Packers in Week 2.
As the Packers' quarterbacks coach and passing-game coordinator, Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy spent the last three seasons in Green Bay. We don't know much about Getsy's offense, but we know it will be an offshoot of the Shanahan tree.
