Something really bad happening at driver level or physical level:
way too many input errors (perhaps, bad CRC) and output drops (due to busy media?).

I prefer to max out interface FIFO length while using bce(4) by means of /boot/loader.conf
when link is heavily utilized:

# max = 8*255 = 2040
hw.bce.tx_pages=8

Also, check driver-level stats with sysctl dev.bce.0
If possible, check link partner - managed switch port counters or what does it have.
Maybe, replace twisted pair cable.
