No one talking about Eberflus and LaFleur sitting next to each other at the MU game?!? Come on, conspiracy theorists! Raise your game!

Eberflus is not doing himself any favors with the fanbase (possibly ownership too). The "conspiracy" that may hold water is that he is positioning himself for a spot on the GB staff.

Just the latest in string of questionable decision by a guy who wants to be in charge. I'll go out on the shortest limb ever and say this is Eberflus last year as a head coach.

Per X, his daughter is considering MU. MU provided some courtside tickets.

Just wait until they're seen standing together in the coaches' photo at the winter meetings.

That’s a really good contract for Chicago, I’m guessing Johnson went under market value for a shorter length deal.

Jaylon Johnson's 4 year, $76M extension with the #Bears makes him the 7th highest average paid CB in football. His reported $54M guaranteed ranks 4th, while his $43.8M guaranteed at sign comes in 2nd. A reported $60M in 3-year cash ranks 2nd only to Jaire Alexander.

Why did Jaylon Johnson accept a multi-year contract at less per year than the franchise tag?
The guarantee structure on this contract makes it 3 years, $60M, with a chance to do it all over again before age 28. More star NFL players need to go this route.

There are also a TON of DBs available in free agency this year. Market may not have been as friendly.

Plus now he gets that reset. Savvy move by him and his agent.
