The Bearly Educated Podcast

This past week we heard Ben Johnson meet the media for his first press conference as Bears head coach. It certainly had a different feel than previous HC introductions. We also discuss this weekend's conference championship games with a very special guest! Thanks for listening! @Bearly_Educated [email protected] BuyMeACoffee.com/Bearly_Educated

For a season with higher expectations than what we experienced, with more frustration and heartbreak than we expected, the Bears close out the 2024 season beating Green Bay on the road, for the first time since 2018, on Virginia McCaskey's birthday! We're a little giddy and disorganized in our post-game reaction, and we tried to just focus on this game, and talk about the future an

We are thrilled to be joined with special guest "Cousin Nate" for this episode! The Bears 2024 season is almost over, and major changes are coming. We discuss what we would like to see, what we hope to see, and whether or not it's really the "same old Bears."

We decided to skip breaking down the loss to San Fran, and get right to the GM. Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune dropped an article today that calls into question the decisions Poles has made, and whether or not he deserves to pick the next head coach. We discuss this and more! Thanks for listening! @Bearly_Educated [email protected] BuyMeACoffee.Com/Bearly_Educated

The Bears were embarrassed by the 49ers, after a week of talk of optimism and change. Full system failure as the Bears lost before halftime. What went wrong? Is Poles seat getting hotter? Did Thomas Brown just ruin his shot at being the permanent head coach? Chris is solo in this episode, as Mark has better boundaries and mental health. Thanks for listening! @Bearly_Educated bearl

We started this episode with complaints over why Eberflus was still the head coach of the Chicago Bears after what was so obvious to the rest of the football world. Then, while recording this episode, the announcement was made that Matt Eberflus had been fired. You'll get to hear our real time reaction to the news!

The Bears lost to the Packers today. Nothing new, BUT...they should have won this one. Talent-wise, the Bears are right there with the Packers; perhaps ahead in skill positions but lacking in the lines. However, there is a MASSIVE chasm between Matt LaFleur and Matt Eberflus, and that played out in the Bears loss today, as it did in the Washington loss a few weeks ago. A positive n
