UPDATE:Bears’ loss to Vikings should seal fate of another……..

The Chicago Bears’ 12-10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football has amplified calls for organizational change, and the spotlight shouldn’t just be on head coach Matt Eberflus. While Eberflus’s tenure has been defined by inconsistency and questionable decision-making, the focus now shifts to offensive coordinator Luke Getsy, whose inability to craft a coherent game plan has stifled the Bears’ progress, particularly with quarterback Justin Fields.

Fields’ performance against the Vikings showcased glimpses of his potential but was overshadowed by the offense’s lack of rhythm and creativity. Despite Fields completing 27 of 37 passes for 217 yards, the Bears failed to score a touchdown, settling for four field goals. The offensive game plan appeared disjointed, leaning heavily on conservative play calls that failed to capitalize on Fields’ dual-threat capabilities. The result? Drives stalled, and critical turnovers—most notably two interceptions in the fourth quarter—sealed Chicago’s fate.

Getsy’s struggles go beyond this one game. Since his arrival, the Bears’ offense has often looked uninspired, predictable, and incapable of adapting in real time. Fields, drafted to be the face of the franchise, has regressed under this system, with his unique skill set largely underutilized. While Fields’ inconsistency warrants critique, the offensive coordinator’s inability to tailor a scheme to his quarterback’s strengths is a glaring indictment.

This season, Chicago’s offense ranks near the bottom of the league in key metrics such as red zone efficiency and points per game. These failures have wasted strong performances by a defense that, under Eberflus’s direction, has shown improvement in recent weeks.

The Bears’ loss to the Vikings was a microcosm of a broader issue: a lack of alignment and vision on offense. While Eberflus’s job security remains tenuous, the first domino to fall should be Getsy. Chicago’s front office, led by GM Ryan Poles, must prioritize surrounding Fields—or any future quarterback—with an offensive staff capable of innovation and growth.

If the Bears are serious about ending their perpetual rebuild, firing Getsy and reevaluating the offensive philosophy is essential. The loss to Minnesota should mark the end of the Getsy experiment and signal a commitment to a new direction. Failing to act now risks further squandering the talent on the roster and alienating a fan base desperate for change.
