Reaction: The Bears’ hire of Matt Eberflus

The Bears made the hire of Matt Eberflus official on Wednesday morning, and the reactions and in-depth analysis have been pouring in.

Already, we’ve heard plenty of descriptors about Eberflus. He doesn’t want to disrespect the game. He will bring discipline to the Bears’ defense and bring back the Tampa 2, no less. And we’ve even had scheme questions about what it might mean for a Hall of Fame edge rusher like Khalil Mack—who was a two-time All-Pro and Defensive Player of the Year in a 4-3 scheme such as Eberflus’s—in a transition.
