The 2023 season ended the same way it started for the Chicago Bears: by letting the Green Bay Packers move the ball all over their defense. Only this time, the Packers were playing for a postseason berth, while the Bears were looking to prove their staff should remain in place going into next season. The former wound up coming to fruition as the Packers took down the Bears 17-9 to punch their playoff ticket, while the Bears are left wondering where to go from here.

Green Bay may not have scored many points, but they controlled the game. The Bears defense allowed Jordan Love to throw the ball all over the field, while Aaron Jones sliced through the front seven for big gains all day long. Chicago looked out of position and was unable to get the Packers off the field. Green Bay didn’t punt once.

Offensively, the Bears struggled to protect Justin Fields in what could be his final game with the team and unveiled a lukewarm gameplan from offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. For the second time this season, they didn’t score a touchdown all game long, and now the tough decisions that have hung over their heads for the better part of the year need to be made.

If Bears fans have their way, those decisions will include moving on from Matt Eberflus and his staff. Fans took to social media to share their pain and demand change be made now that the season has come to an end.

This was our game, the fans game. I think decisions about the draft and QB and all were already made. And it was so disappointing pic.twitter.com/3G1Yr0bnG8

A serious organization would look at the entire season. They would see a team that started off 0-4, blew 3 different 10-plus pt 4th quarter leads. They would see that 1 of their wins came against a playoff team & they would fire this coaching staff into the sun tomorrow. #Bears

Fire Eberflus, fire Getsy, and fire a cannonball into my chest for daring to get a little bit excited about the Chicago Bears

Matt Eberflus has to be fired. Justin Fields… I feel bad because the O Line was TRASH today, but at some point you have to just overcome that. Worst feeling ever.

Matt Eberflus had his team unprepared against Green Bay. Again.

Matt LaFluer out-coached the Bears staff. Again.

Time for change in Chicago. Again.

This should be the end of the Matt Eberflus & Luke Getsy era in Chicago.

I doubt the #Bears fire Flus, but all momentum they had heading into this game went right out the window. They looked neutered against the Packers. What else is new?

I am pissed this is the standard for every Packers game.

If losing to Green Bay really means more to those who matter with the Bears… then why does it happen so often?

— Leila Rahimi (@leilarahimi) January 8, 2024

Chicago just got absolutely destroyed from top to bottom. Outcoached, outclassed, outplayed, owned at the LOS on both sides of the ball.

Happens every time they play GB. Difference between a well-run franchise and one clinging to glory days from 40 years ago.

Another sub-200 yard game from Fields.

He’s not a franchise QB. Get over it.

The Chicago Bears make me sick.

Chicago deserves better. What a piss poor franchise. From TOP TO BOTTOM.

Week 1 and Week 18 feel the exact same

DL dominated, OL bad, QB bad

They aren’t far away at all and have been blessed with Caleb Williams. Now get the HC right and add to the team

17-9 couldn’t be a bigger façade, this was an absolute shit-pumping.

There is no debate. There is no conversation. It’s quite simple, actually.

The Bears beating Green Bay is a lot like the Cubs acting like a big market franchise:

I won’t believe it can happen until I actually see it happen first.

You can’t bring the coach or the QB back after this.

— Scruffy Bear Herder (@BearHerder) January 7, 2024

They had Justin Fields throw the ball 16 times in a game they were losing basically the entire time.

What an embarrassment.

Keep Luke Getsy’s ass in Green Bay

— Todd Welter (@toddjdub) January 7, 2024

How can any sane Bears fan abdicate for bringing Flus back after that pantsing by the Packer? #DaBears

— Coach Ryan McHugh 🏈 (@rymcq65) January 8, 2024

don’t care about progress, don’t care about any of it anymore. don’t care about the locker room culture or anything. 7.3 yards per play allowed in what should have been a defining game for your tenure? i have a ticket to the sun with flus’s name on it. get out.

— shea (@sheanorling) January 8, 2024

I take everything I said back about thinking Flus is coming back

You can’t be in the position to be spoiler against your rival and play this spineless and uninspired.
