The dismissal of Luke Getsy signifies that there has been no alteration in the status quo for the Chicago Bears.

This recurring theme serves as a stark reminder that Bears' president, Kevin Warren, may not be the savior for the team's football operations, a role many envisioned when he joined the organization last year. For the first time in three decades, the Bears had a unique opportunity to align their team president with the general manager and their head coach with the quarterback.

However, after days of what they called "deliberation," the Bears have chosen to tread the well-worn path of the past. Despite the wealth of highly qualified head coaching candidates available this offseason, the Bears have opted for a third season with Matt Eberflus as their head coach, albeit with a new offensive coordinator.

The problem with this approach is that by openly discussing whether Eberflus should return as the head coach, the Bears have effectively declared him a lame-duck coach at the outset of the 2024 season. If the team fails to achieve success next season, Eberflus will almost certainly face dismissal.

This unsteady situation is unlikely to attract top-notch offensive coordinator talent. Prominent offensive coordinators across the NFL, such as Ben Johnson of the Detroit Lions, will be actively pursuing head coaching positions this offseason. Should they fail to secure one, they would be more inclined to retain their current roles than join a coaching staff fraught with instability, as seen with the Bears.

Warren's presence within the Bears' organization has not alleviated the recurring cycle of inept decisions in football operations. The quarterback position appears to be the next casualty in this ongoing, real-life doomsday scenario for the team.
