The Bears are sticking with general manager Ryan Poles, who will serve as the "point person" for the team's search for a new head coach.

Bears general manager Ryan Poles said Monday there was no choice but to fire coach Matt Eberflus after repeated late-game mistakes that led the team to a disappointing 4-8 record.

In the wake of the firing of head coach Matt Eberflus, the Bears say they're staying the course in the rest of their leadership.
