Bears fire OC Shane Waldron after disastrous loss to Patriots

Shane Waldron gets fired after 19-3 loss to the Patriots

The New England Patriots beat the Chicago Bears so badly they had no choice but to make the disastrous midseason move of firing their offensive coordinator, Shane Waldron.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the news on Tuesday.

Granted, the ship was already sinking before the Patriots came along and dominated the Bears on Soldier Field in Week 10. It was a sack party for New England with rookie quarterback Caleb Williams serving as the pinata.

Nearly every member of the Patriots’ defense got a shot in on Williams, who was sacked nine times and hit 13 times.

By the end of the game, the Bears only had 142 total yards of offense against a Patriots team that initially looked like it was dead in the water.

Many viewed Waldron as a good fit for the Patriots during their offseason search for a new offensive coordinator.

But seeing how things have gone in Chicago, it’s safe to say the Patriots were better off hiring Alex Van Pelt, at the very least.
