The Bears DC quit or got fired?

It like some 60 year old Packer fan has scripted the Bears season.

He's just in the corner stomping his feet and pouting.

LOL. Either way it sounds like he has left the Bears by his choice or theirs. It is early, but these are strong signs that the "house cleaning" is coming and "Collapse for Caleb" will be in full effect.

The Bears DC has been away from the team for a week because of personal reasons. Maybe wait and see what's going on before mocking him or the situation. Could be that's he's dealing with some serious sh*t unrelated to football.

Fair enough, but the head coach will not confirm or deny that he has left the team. Does that seem normal to you?

If he's got a family situation that is fluid, I could see how a coach would answer that way. Or a health issue.

The head coach has explained that the DC stepped away from the team for personal reasons. He refuses to say when or if he'll return.

If that is the case, then shame on the Bears for not affirming his employment with the team. Any decent organization or person would say he is part of our organization and we'll welcome him back when things get resolved.

You could possibly be right, but I think the personal reason is more likely that he is mad that play calling duties were taken away.

Bill zimmerman (who is generally a responsible reporter) says that that the details on the Williams absence are "shocking". No further details yet.

He posts on scoop?

Apparently Matt Eberflus is now the odds on favorite in Vegas to be the 1st HC fired this year. (+225)

[cheebs09]

Not sure how legit this guy is, but said there was a raid of Halas Hall and Alan Williams house.

That would go without saying given that he's lost 12 games in a row and is 3-16 as a head coach...

Except every single loss is a GREAT RESULT in Chicago.  So why would they fire a guy for doing what he's asked to do?

A lot of us had a sneaking suspicion that the Bears were a criminal organization - especially after ARod took ownership.

A raid of Halas Hall not reported by mainstream media. That is highly unlikely. On a BS meter of 1 to 10, I give this a 14.

I have heard from someone I trust that the FBI was at Halas Hall very early this morning (possibly overnight last night).

In addition to losing their defensive leader for the season, having both starting guards on IR, and having their shut-down corner out for several weeks, the Panthers practiced Wednesday without Bryce Young, reportedly due to a sore ankle.

The Panthers are 0-2; every other team in the division is 2-0.

The Bryce Young/Frank Reich Era is off to a wonderful start!

Probably stuff on Hunter's laptop leading them there

More Trump documents stored there?

[tower912]

They found Hoffa.

Virginia McCaskey being involved checks a lot of boxes

So uhhhhh this sounds like uhhhhh CP?

[jesmu84]

Alan Williams just resigned.

Bears state no "raid" today at halas Hall
