In a span of a few days, the Chicago Bears have seen a time which was full of disorders.
According to the NFL, the defensive coordinator of the Chicago Bears left and their quarterback scheduled a second media appearance to address his earlier remarks.
"We have strong bonds with each other and when you have adversity, we pull together. That's what we did with honest communication. We pulled together and leaned on one another."

Matt Eberflus, the head coach of the Bears, praised his players for handling everything well and expressed optimism that this would turn out to be a motivating experience for his squad.
He said, “The first thing is, the reason we handled it well is because of the relationships built inside this building leading up this point,”
“We have strong bonds with each other and when you have adversity, we pull together. That’s what we did with honest communication. We pulled together and leaned on one another. I think (general manager) Ryan (Poles) and myself did a nice job of really understanding, ‘OK, here is how we’re going to work through this to keep the main thing, the main thing.'”
Matt Eberflus, the head coach of the Chicago Bears, also shed light on these events and regarding why their Defensive coordinator Alan Williams resigned on Wednesday.
Eberflus said, “When the news came out and all those crazy things were being said, I felt we needed to clarify,”
“I said, hey all those rumors and stuff going on right now, that crazy stuff, none of that is true,”
“‘Alan is resigning,’ and I said, ‘We’ll be keeping all the same responsibilities on defense and I’ll be calling the plays on game day. Any questions?’ It was better that way, with fewer people in the room. It took me more time, but that’s the way I wanted to do it.”
Andrew Stroth, Williams’ attorney said, “no legal or criminal activity. Coach Williams resigned on his own volition, 100%. He’s dealing with personal stuff and health stuff”.
The Chicago Bears in an incredible play have defeated the Kansas City Chiefs. The score was 19-14.
