Bears' Offensive Coordinator Shane Waldron to Continue Calling Plays Amid Offensive Struggles

Why it matters: Despite the Chicago Bears' recent offensive struggles, offensive coordinator Shane Waldron will retain his role as the play caller for the team.

What's new: Bears coach Matt Eberflus confirmed that Waldron will continue to call plays despite the team's offensive woes.

Yes, but: The Bears' offense has been ineffective and struggled to score touchdowns in their recent loss to the Cardinals.

  • The team failed to score a touchdown in that game, marking their first game this season without finding the end zone.
  • Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams had a lackluster performance with no touchdowns and no turnovers.

What to watch: The Bears are looking for solutions to their offensive issues and will go through a process to address them.

  • Eberflus expressed the importance of utilizing the team's talents and executing their game plan effectively.
  • The Bears' top skill players have not consistently generated production, adding to the offensive challenges.

What's next: Waldron is in his first season as the Bears' offensive coordinator after previously serving as the play caller for the Seahawks.

  • Negotiating the offensive struggles and finding ways to improve will be the focus moving forward.
  • The team and Waldron will work together to put players in a position to succeed and turn their offensive fortunes around.

The bottom line: Despite the difficulties faced by the Bears' offense, Waldron will remain the play caller as the team looks to find answers and elevate their performance.

  • Coach Eberflus has expressed confidence in Waldron and emphasized the importance of focusing on the upcoming games.
