The Chicago Bears' season came to an official close with a 17-9 loss to their rivals, the Green Bay Packers, on Sunday. As the offseason looms, a multitude of questions surround the team, including the future of head coach Matt Eberflus. However, it appears that the Bears are opting for a patient approach when it comes to deciding on the 52-year-old's fate.

According to Bears beat reporter Dan Wiederer, the team may not make a definitive announcement regarding Matt Eberflus' future immediately. Wiederer conveyed, "Don't be surprised if the Bears don't make a firm declaration on Matt Eberflus' future one way or the other on Monday. I'd expect them to be detailed and methodical with everything they're going to discuss and analyze. These are big decisions with long-term ramifications. And there's little to gain by rushing unnecessarily. Buckle in and stay patient as the week evolves."

The Bears' lackluster performance in what was anticipated to be a crucial game raised questions about Eberflus' continued role. It was only the second time this season that the team failed to score a touchdown, and they allowed Packers quarterback Jordan Love to score two touchdowns while completing 27 of 32 passes for 316 yards.

Fans eager for a swift resolution regarding Eberflus' future may have to exercise patience as the team evaluates all factors. While Eberflus has accumulated a 10-24 record during his tenure with the Bears, the team did show improvement in the latter half of the season.

Reportedly, Eberflus and General Manager Ryan Poles are conducting exit interviews with players on Monday, and Eberflus anticipates meeting with the Bears' management "mid-week." However, the exact timing of the decision regarding his future remains uncertain.
