Bears hire a Matt Eberflus when they should’ve hired an offensive guru to guide Justin Fields

The Bears have hired Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, shown here when he was with the Cowboys, as their head coach.

Well, this is going to be hell on headline writers. What is this newspaper supposed to do with new Bears coach Matt Eberflus?

We won’t be able to use the headline “Eberflush” after a bad coaching decision costs the Bears a game or “Ebernezer Scrooge” following a Bears’ loss on Christmas. Why not? Because his name is pronounced “EE-ber-floos.’’
