@ you didn’t watch the game. Detroit was about to score and fumbled inside the 10 when they would’ve been up 23-0 not to mention the missed FG. They dominated the game with reserve players all over their defense. Even IF the Bears hit a long field goal with Santos(not likely)they would have had to win a coin toss and scored a TD to win it. That wasn’t happening MOST LIKELY(like I initially said)based on the Lions being the best team in football and the bears having a losing record.
I’m a Vikings fan and would for purely selfish reasons love for Matt Eberflus to keep self sabotaging that very talented Bears team. The Bears are a good team and deserve better. Their fans deserve better. Football fans everywhere deserve better.
I don't think he did. He did a press conference this morning and was asked point blank if he thought he kept his job. He smiled and looked cocky and said he is confident he will still be the coach against SF. 😂
Good luck to Eberflus, but the Bears needed to do this. He had a talented lineup, but he couldn't put it together, and if he couldn't even manage the clock right, that shows just how skilled he is at being a leader.
@@TheBrotherHoodSports Totally agree. It’s also clear that Williams’ mistakes are being blamed on the HC while his successes aren’t. I read an article on ESPN saying the HC is responsible for developing Williams, then points out the improvement of Williams and his rookie record (omitted* under Eberflus). The nfl and it’s writers have a vested interest to skew public perception in the No 1 draft pick’s favor to manufacture interest and hype. Just like they did and continue to do with Bryce Young.
@@andylarkin5779 sure he could’ve fired eberflus after last year, but to bring in who? There was a lot of perceived offensive coaching talent that was assumed to be available but how many actually accepted head coaching jobs? This cycle you’ll have guys like Ben Johnson, kliff kingsbury, Joe Brady, Liam coen, Zac Robinson, strictly speaking for an offensive minded HC.
This absolutely needed to happen but boy are the Bears a mess. First pick of the draft all the planning and scheming that went into this season just to watch it all go up in flames. This really starts at the top. NFL teams are a public trust. The Bears organization has fumbled the bag as they do year after year. This organization has proven they have no idea what it takes to run a successful team. I feel guilty for allowing my son to become a bears fan.
Remembering back to Mike Ditka and Buddy Ryan who were forces to be reckoned with and to me seemed like the type that were going to do what they wanted.. That was the last time the bears were great. IDK what's going on inside the organization. So many years of inefficiency and disorganization. Sometimes too many chiefs make a mess of final results. We have so many talented players that worked their butts off to get into a position to win games that have to go home wondering what the ---- too many weekends.
As a non NFL fan, I prefer college, I am pulling for Detroit to win it all. That franchise has dealt with so much losing and heartbreak, they deserve to feel like and be a winner for a change. That coach is the real deal you have . I also lived in Detroit for a few years when I was a child. SB Champs, The Detroit Lions. Has a nice ring to it.
He also was supposed to help develop Caleb. If he did that, Caleb would’ve called that timeout or taken a snap earlier. Mental errors just mean a lack of preparation.
I truly mean this, I do not understand how CBS isnt more popular. Everyone here is smart non political just Football I mean this is an Exceptional Job by CBS ! Deserve a lot more appreciation. Thank you !
As a Lions fan, I was hoping they would have kept him until we played the Bears a second time. Poor time management on the Bears' side of things 😬😂 On a serious note, I hope the Bears get their next hire right. I've always liked that franchise.
I'm so happy because now the bears can move on and hopefully improve and build because this guy was horrible as coach and that game yesterday is still unbelievable 😂 they need wayyy better fr and got the talent and potential
Sorry to see fluss go, nfl is what can you do for fans now , which is wins ,he’s a good coach even with the mistakes he did throughout the year , hope he gets another opportunity somewhere else , good luck Coach
I feel bad for Eberflus, though he did have to go, I argued for him being let go during this past offseason. That deer in headlights look on his face at the end of yesterday's game was so sad. He isn't a bad coach, but he is just terrible at in-game strategy, which makes him a coach you can't seriously win with. Good luck Matt Eberflus.
Even my wife, who knows absolutely nothing about football, was yelling timeout during those last 30 seconds. And the fact he didn’t own up to it after the fact. FIRE HIM
I don’t understand everyone praised this guy and said that he is good for Chicago,but I strongly believe that the general manager should be the one to be fired because he hired him knowing that he’s the wrong coach for the job!!! When will the Chicago bears get it right (when) it’s t much bullshit excuses!!!!
Thomas Brown got a lot of love for a couple of games, but it seemed like he was really struggling in this one. Two wasted timeouts in that last drive leads me to believe he wasn't getting the plays in quick enough. At least 3 times in the game the snap came with 00 on the clock. Weird because the previous 2 games things were moving along briskly.
Obviously there was a coaching and team breakdown occurring over the last 5 games. But there has to be some accountability to the QB position. Caleb could’ve managed that situation on the field better than he did. He didn’t start playing QB just yesterday!! He was the #1 overall pick in the draft for a reason…to be able to win games like that on his mental and physical attributes. That’s what makes him a #1 pick…right?!? He demonstrates a lot of good QB physical talent but not a lot of QB intelligent talent.
The Bears need to go out and get a coach thats been there done that like in my opinion if Dallas moves on from Mike McCarthy he knows this division real well and i think that's a no brainer to go get Mike if he's available
All that good feelings about Caleb being a QB evaporated quickly after that devastating Hail Mary loss. This just goes to show that "things can get horribly wrong after one critical mistake" in the NFL. The demise of the 2024 Bears won't be forgotten anytime soon. A great lesson for all involved in the NFL.
Bears fans just don't get it. The ownership of this team will never get it right because they still don't understand they have run this franchise so far in the ground that real leaders and winners don't want to come here unless you are willing to pay a premium. They don't do that because they don't understand the Bears are in the same league as the Browns and Panthers now. Disfunction from top to bottom and where QBs go to die. I know because I have been a Bears fan since 1983. 😢
That blunder was so bad he may not be able to find work going forward. It was nonsensical. You have a chance to beat the number 1 seed and regain momentum in your season and that’s how you handle it
As a Lions fan, I didn't like the way we won. I would've preferred we went to OT and then ran the ball down the field for a game winning TD with Sonic and Knuckles.
Clearly horrible clock management ..but I also believe QB Caleb Williams should also be held accountable .. many of times it seems like Williams defies the play call and does his own ...he has a very arrogant attitude .... undoubtedly he has talent but I think his attitude needs adjustment
This doesn't make sense. Why fire him when he still has a timeout in his back pocket? That's just ridiculous. At least wait and let him use it next week. Smfh
*So Thomas Brown has gone from being an OC for only 5 games with the Carolina Panthers and 3 games with the Bears to HC, eh? The Bears should have just let Matt Eberflus complete the season as usual, now Thomas Brown has to concentrate on being the CEO of the whole team instead of concentrate on his work with Caleb Williams. Wrong Move By The Bears.* -NFL-SCOUT
*GOT TO BENCH THE QB AS WELL! WILLIAMS 'BEARS' MOST OF THE BLAME FOR THE CLOCK RUNNING OUT! EITHER ONE COULD HAVE CALLED TIMEOUT!* *TAKE ACCOUNTABLITY!*
The guy is a rookie who has been sacked so many times and the rest been running for his life. He was sacked 9 TIMES vs the Patriots not counting the plays he was running with people on his heels. He's spent more times just running for his life to have time to assimilate what's happening on the field. It's the Head Coach who is supposed to have the background, the experience and the knowledge of the game and how to win them that's supposed to teach these rookies and that's not what's been happening. In all of that pass rush, and pressure and sacking, He's not throwing interceptions which says a lot for a first year QB.
As a bears fan, I’m happy they got rid of this clueless maniac. But what took Poles so long to see that he’s not the coach to be trusted
Poles knows what he’s doing.
Most likely ownership! Its normally ownership that fires coaches and GMs
The Bears will never amount to anything. Have fun with y'all losing record.
@jpjh8844 agree 💯 it's the owner
100% the owner who didn't want to break tradition, i think poles wanted to earlier
What do you think Dan Campbell was thinking when the Bears weren't calling a timeout. He had to be thinking , they just gave us a victory .
He’s gotta be feeling fortunate to be going against a rookie qb that panicked and went against the plan.
The entire team was in awe. They literally had to look at the clock to believe it.
Lions still would’ve won most likely.
@@freedomthefreeman487 what makes you think that? All momentum was with Chicago in the 2nd half

Anybody “shocked” by this firing simply hasn’t been paying attention.
Stevie Wonder saw this firing coming
You also need to understand that Bears have never fired a coach in regular season. Fans know this coach had to go.
At 3:45AM CST.
Eberflus was calling a Timeout in his sleep... A Cold-Sweat Timeout. 💤 😱
Kinda like how Eberflus wasn't paying attention at the end of the Lions game.
Right
Caleb Young. What a draft pick that was.
Now the question is, as a Chicago native,....whos going to fire the Bears. Time for this organization to find a new organization🙄
Huge mistake moving from the lake site.
wtf is Caleb Young???!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
A country singer
They fused like Goku and Vegeta.
Could have been thinking Vince Young?
Lol
so glad someone else heard it
He knew he was getting fire ☠️
I don't think he did. He did a press conference this morning and was asked point blank if he thought he kept his job. He smiled and looked cocky and said he is confident he will still be the coach against SF. 😂
Best news for the Bears all year so far.
I am a buyer on Caleb Young Rookie Cards!
Good luck to Eberflus, but the Bears needed to do this. He had a talented lineup, but he couldn't put it together, and if he couldn't even manage the clock right, that shows just how skilled he is at being a leader.
I feel bad for all those terrified dogs and cats that watched their owners freak out and go totally Bugs Bunny those last few seconds.
😂😂
@@JC-vk6ii😂😂😂😂😂😂
After the debacle at the end of the game yesterday not surprised...
I would have fired him yesterday.
Left him in Detroit😂
The Bears were only one decent head coach away from being 7-6.
Blaming a blocked field goal and a lucky hail mary on the coach is pretty crazy. It's evidence that he wasn't as bad as people are pretending.
You mean 8-4
@@CEOTonez Yep
@@TheBrotherHoodSports Oh, no, he's terrible. It wasn't just those two games.

Eberflus was a mccaskey hire through and through. Poles was given a preselected pool of candidates by George “not a football guy” mccaskey himself
Then why did Poles and Polrs alone decide to bring him back this year?

Part of his firing, he was allowed to take his timeouts home with him.

Finally Eberclueless is gone. BUT we know Bears ownership are complete morons and the coaching carousel will continue!
You ain't lyin😂
I'm a devout Lions fan and I am glad to see this for the Bears fans, this guy did not belong in the NFL
Thanks. And as a Bears I hope the Lions win the Super Bowl this year.

3:53 best rookie prospect ever, Caleb Young
You have to be kidding!!
You can't be that dumb with play calling and keep your job.
Well..At least he got to take that last timeout with him!!
He also was supposed to help develop Caleb. If he did that, Caleb would’ve called that timeout or taken a snap earlier. Mental errors just mean a lack of preparation.
He has to give it back before he leaves
Ray Charles, at night, with shades on, in a car with tinted windows, could see this coming from 10 miles away...
It should have been done after last year's Lions game when he tried 4 runs up the middle instead of having Fields run around the end for 2 yards.
Thomas brown is speed running the coaching promotions path 😂
And yet my Giants have committed to Schoen and Daboll 😂
I truly mean this, I do not understand how CBS isnt more popular. Everyone here is smart non political just Football I mean this is an Exceptional Job by CBS ! Deserve a lot more appreciation. Thank you !
and their next coach will be bad because that is what terrible organizations do.
It's about time
The Bears finally have a competent GM, this team will be deadly if they bring everyone back.
😂😂😂😂😂
GMs record is ass too.
@ Almost beat the best teams in the league with terrible coaching
@@underthebridge2014 They finally have a GM that’s focused on offensive talent.
Finally 👍🏻
Go Bears
Damn that was FAST
‘Netted them Caleb Young’😂😭
But Flus WAS , in fact, his pick!..And Poles, Waldron, and Flus all had the same agent in Trace Armstrong.
As a Lions fan, I was hoping they would have kept him until we played the Bears a second time. Poor time management on the Bears' side of things 😬😂
On a serious note, I hope the Bears get their next hire right. I've always liked that franchise.
Lions fans talking smack lol. I guess you deserve it after all this time.
“Caleb young”🔥🔥
Getting fired after Thanksgiving gotta suck 😅
A defensive head coach in an offensive era is ridiculous. Get it right management.
I'm so happy because now the bears can move on and hopefully improve and build because this guy was horrible as coach and that game yesterday is still unbelievable 😂 they need wayyy better fr and got the talent and potential
They have been building since SB 20. Ownership has been the continuous problem. Fact
@velvetbear7184 well then they need to go too 😮💨
the clock management was the nail in the coffin
Sorry to see fluss go, nfl is what can you do for fans now , which is wins ,he’s a good coach even with the mistakes he did throughout the year , hope he gets another opportunity somewhere else , good luck Coach

Do better CBS
You guys gotta chill. We got it.
I’m a bears fan and while I’m never happy for anyone to get fired he has shown that he was not the right guy for the position
Ok I’ll take your feelings because I’m glad he got cooked. He’s hurting other young men careers.
He (Lead NFL Analyst Jonathon Jones) said caleb young, it is caleb williams
Even my wife, who knows absolutely nothing about football, was yelling timeout during those last 30 seconds. And the fact he didn’t own up to it after the fact. FIRE HIM

This is better then the championships LFGG BEARS 🐻 🍾🍾
They need to fire more people in that organization .
The bars in Chicago will all be joyous tonight.
I defended him a while ago, but it is clear he does not know much about football. 33 seconds, ran a play with 6 seconds left.
The ownership need to be fired as well
maybe NOW he'll call that timeout
You could tell Caleb was not happy with Flus
Rightfully so
As a Bears fan this is long overdue because they should've never bought him back after last year.
Thank you god
So glad Poles got Caleb Young, that guy is a stud

If Poles would have actually did this in January, we would talking today about how Harbaugh was turning the Bears around instead of the Chargers.
Thank you God! Now let’s go Bill Belichik!

For the Bears to trot Matt on to the press conference only to fire him 2 hours later
That's what class-less organizations do
Cry yourself a river. He made more money then ever deserved!
Why didnt caleb williams throw it to the sideline instead of 30 yards down the field.
You can't fire Caleb Williams

Better late than never
Every time we beat somebody the coach gets fired! Ppl must really hate loosing to the lions more importantly getting embarrassed
You mean Caleb Williams …
As a Vikings fan it’s ridiculous that they decided to get rid of him now. I agree he should be gone but a long long time ago…
I would have fired him too!
The Bears should give him a stopwatch on his way out the door.
