At this point I am thoroughly convinced that Matt Eberflus is not the head coach for this team.... He has shown time and time again that he lacks attention to detail and his road record reflects that.... Right now this Chicago Bears team is looking at maybe 8 wins... And unfortunately that will not be enough to even be considered for the wild card.
If that lucky play didn’t happen we’d be 5-2 and the perception would a lot different This team is not ready for big time yet OL needs fixing in the off season This is a project and flus is doing a great job
He’s never won a road game against a team with a winning record. Eberflus beat the 3-3 Patriots in 2022. Last year, he beat the Commanders (2-3) and Vikings (6-6). Eberflus has never won a road game on a Sunday afternoon.
Eberflus is winless after a bye and 3-17 on the road. He's 2-10 against the rest of the north. Can you imagine what his record will be against the division after the season? How can anyone justify keeping him
@@dennyedquistjr1979 record is meaningless The team was gutted and is in a total rebuild since he joined He’s built a great culture and has kept the team playing hard despite the record and when they knew it’s a rebuild
Then he hops out the bag, pushes you in the water, and drives off with the boat! Hahahaha... When I saw the taunting, after a game full of bad plays, I felt the Football Gods gave us the results we earned... Enough is enough...
Should have never been in that position to lose on a Hail Mary. The Defense played a hell of a game and the offense only scored 15 points. It is on Waldron, the line, and Williams.
This loss is definitely more on the coaching staff than Williams. True, he was bad until the 4th quarter, but with the game on the line he stepped up and put them in a position to win. Not every QB has the ability to do that. Us as fans are acting like he's a 5 year veteran and need to remember that he's a ROOKIE. Even the best QBs have ugly games, but at the end of the day it's all about winning games not individual stats.
that’s what really matters that’s a trait that only a few players have…mahomes is really the only consistent one. it looked like caleb was high in t he first half lol then he settled into the game in the second half. all he has to do is settle in earlier and we’ll be good
For all those comments- a time out could have gotten all that organized Heck, use a timeout with 6 seconds and another with 2 3 timeouts still in your pocket is pointless
I think one of the most annoying things about Flus... He refuses to step in when his OC is calling something stupid. No one fucking cares how many times you've practiced that play. A run to the fullback who is ur backup guard CANT BE THE CALL in that crucial of a moment. It just fucking can't. You have to check ur play caller when that is their idea. That's part of being HC. You have to make the tough decisions. Flus, at the end of the day... If Waldron doesn't pan out... That's ur ass. Do you want to get fired? Do you really want to lose your job after the amazing job you have done with the defense? Bc you are not getting a 3rd crack at it. No one on ths planet, even Ryan Poles, is going to give you 3 swings at the right offensive coordinator. I hope he understands this. Bc if not.. his ass is cooked. Ben Johnson would love to coach someone like Caleb, i can promise you that. If the Bears domt make the playoffs... Im rooting for the Lions. Why? Bc if they win it... The chances are high that Ben J will feel like his job is done there and will seek a bigger challenge. What bigger challenge than finally bringing a functioning offense to the Bears lmao.
@@stevencohn922 it is the morning. And everything I said is logical. The speed option vs Indy.. the FB handoff yesterday... HC has to override those playcalls. Simple as that.
But is Ben Johnson "A LEADER OF MEN" is the question. Eberflus is great with the team's defense but as we see, he's not the man that can lead this team to contention.
The problem is Flus in not Dan Campbell. D C tells the team the OC and everyone else what he expects. Flus knows 1 thing defense. But after the way we ran the Hail Mary, I don't believe he even knows that. Hire a Offensive minded head coach !!! Whenever !! Just hire one like S Mc Vay or Kevin O Connell, Shanahan or Reid. Anybody the knows offense please!!!!
This team is undisciplined. That's on coaching. Flus is a fraud. He can't manage games. He has no business being a head coach of the Chicago Bears. Fire Flus.
Caleb, is a leader and will have many, many, more similar situations where the outcome will be different. Even after the loss, Bear's fans should have nothing but hope and excitement for the future.
People keep saying the Bears didn't deserve to win that game. The Bears defense did earn a chance to win that game. They held the #1 redzone offense in the NFL to 4 field goals, 12 points with 2 seconds left in the game.
Why did Flus not protect the sidelines? Just give up yardage to get them in a hail mary window? Then not call a TO even though you have Flus yelling at Jaylen on the sideline about what to do. Coaching fail. Should not happen if you have a defensive HC.
The only positive things to take away here is that the Bears D was impressive, and the Caleb comeback. But it doesn’t look like the coaching is going to get any better…. Nor the offensive line. So they’ll not likely best the lions, and I’m not sure they can even best the Vikings, so you’re looking at a team that’s never gonna be better than third place…..
Olin, I just don't understand how a player is going to stand up and state clearly what he missed or did wrong when the Head Coach DOESN'T. Can you explain what that does to the players and the locker room? Eberflus' pressers/interviews have become unwatchable. Nothing is ever done wrong for which he takes responsibility -- and there was MORE than one thing wrong in that Washington game. Also, what will happen to the players if the HC does not impose some kind of discipline on what Stevenson was doing with the crowd on the last play? What if Stevenson is allowed to get away with "I'm sorry, it won't happen again" and some chewing out by players, captains, and coaches? Would the locker room be even listening to Eberflus? Do you think they're listening NOW? P.S. I totally agree that Caleb has done everything asked of him and far more! I can't believe he has much respect for Eberflus based on how his HC speaks and behaves.
This is team has the potential to great, we have the talent, and anchored by a great defense. We have to get the correct head coach ASAP and potentially a new OC!
The Bears as a team (save one unfortunate mistake) would have beaten a very good team in their home stadium. They as a group should not be discouraged and instead be proud of their remarkable fourth quarter comeback. They are going to win many games in the future and have a very superior QB who is going live up to his hype if he gets an O-line that can give him the time to throw.
Olin gives the best commentary of anybody out there. He should be doing this on a network platform. Lucky to have him In chicago. I just wish he had better material to work with.
Explain to me like I’m 5. Why hasn’t Ryan Poles address the offensive line more? He is a former offensive lineman himself. Why isn’t it a priority more?
I truly think he thought the o line was better than it was. I think he thought the woes were more bc of Justin Fields holding on too long and not seeing it well enough. Two things can be true at once.. Fields had moments when he held too long and didn't see it well enough. But the o line also is not good enough. I pray they invest everything into o line this upcoming off-season. But it sucks we can't watch good offense consistently this season bc the defense is elite and that is clear. Even without Kyler Gordon and brisker, they're great
As a Packers fan it’s still the O line Defense is much improved Offensive skill players are fine, Caleb is learning O line is bad Eberflus can’t keep 3 timeouts in his pocket- you KNOW it’s a hail mary- get organized And heavily fine or suspend guy for taunting fans and being out of position DURING a play
The Bears are 0-3 against teams with a 4-4 or better record. All their wins are against dogs. Sometimes games come down to the last play, but there are 4 quarters played before that last play. The 1st quarter is just as important as the 4th quarter.
yes CW is going to be special, but you can see the difference between CW and Daniels. Daniels is in a situation to succeed, hard to say that about CW. Just hope the Bears do not destroy what CW can be...
You have to be joking right? Caleb went to a team with arguably the best defense in the nfl. Not to mention they went and got Keenan, odunze, Everett, and swift to go along with dj Moore, kmet, and others. Caleb was set up better than every high draft pick qb in history. Then the went and got a OC that is familiar with him as well. Truth is JD5 is over performing with lesser talent and Caleb is underperforming like a mf with a lot of talent.
Tbf, Tony Romo did call out a run play by The Redskins and said the reason he knew was because a receiver ran on the field and didn’t even go into the huddle.
FIRE EberSTOOP, NOW!!!! The HELL with waiting until the end of the Season. And take Waldron WITH you!!!! 2 weeks to prepare for this game and THIS is what we get?!?!?!?!? This will never change as long as the McCaskey's own the team.
When will they realize a 3-17 road record just might be, not good enough ? When will they realize, the Bears are a undisciplined football team ? When will they realized Flus is not a very good head coach ???
Once again the lack of a running game keeps hurting this team. For 3 quarters the team stunk on offense, we need the power running game, the Bears can't be a pass 1st offense with the OL. On the other hand those guys can run block, I just can't understand why the OC Waldron can get that in his tick skull. I and I do agree with Olin, I told my friend the same thing yesterday after the loss, Eberflus is the headcoach, and he does not act like the team leader.
Eberflus stated that he liked Stevensons' aggressiveness. He poked the wr in the helmet against the Texans. Eberflus wants the aggressiveness, but be locked in and doing your job while doing so.
I remember there was a player for The Giants back in the 80’s who said that one or two weeks a month, Bill Parcells would ride LT’s ass for absolutely everything and nitpick every single thing he did and made LT feel like he couldn’t do anything right and when that happened, all the guys knew that LT would have a monster game. Why cant we have a head coach like that?
The sheer number of coaching errors is maddening. Why did they pass at the goal line at the end of the game? You have 4 downs and 3 time outs! You aren't going to run out of time. Why did the coaches all Scary Terry to go uncovered and gain 15. If he is covered the Hail Mary never happens! Why did no one in the booth see Stevenson being an idiot and call a timeout? Why did we run the ball with a olinemen. One play did not lose the game however they multitude of play calls and coaching decisions absolutely did. If any one of those 1 things is different we win.
The head Coach needs to make "I statements and take responsibility in public. Then he must make "we" statement in the locker room. Then he needs to call in each player who needs a butt chewing in private, But he also needs to let team captains take care of what they need to do without interference. If the team captains are not doing their job they need to be talked to individually also. I was a Senior NCO in the Air Force and using this method my people would follow me anywhere, they would trust me and they gave their best effort all the time. This is called integrity.
To ALL Bears fans, for perspective, how did your last QB1 Justin Fields do against the Commanders with only one WR1 in DJ Moore while facing Chase Young, Payne, AND Montaz Sweat...and playing with a horrific O-line, horrific OC and the same game blowing lame duck HC? Did he run around like a ballerina and lose yards on a sack and put the team out of game winning field goal range...or did Fields blow them out with DJ having a career record number of TDs ? A friend is asking.
If we want to compare Daniels and Williams, we have to consider the pressure each passer was under. Williams was under nearly constant pressure. Daniels, not so much.
Daniels looked really impressive maybe he on the percs like rodgers ha! But I’ve been saying eberflus is not it! Too many of these sort of loses, I could name handful over last few seasons. But it’s not just that. We need a coach that can get offense to play at high level all 4 quarters period!
Imagine being so good that your punter is the best player in the game and it still takes a Hail Mary miracle from a first place team to beat you. Relax everyone
On a Hail Mary, why don’t they put the tall tight ends in the end zone? They put all the little DB’s in the end zone. Why not have the little fast DB’s chase the QB?
Total Defensive lapse no one guarding an open WR that allowed the Hailmary to even be possible. No pass rush on last play allowing Daniel's 17 seconds to go to back right to throw the ball
Let’s face at the Bears are 5-3 because they beat three of the worst teams in the league. 2 more upcoming , AZ & NE next… 7-3 and then their season ends. Schedule is all playoff teams… 8-9 end you watch
And talk about punch lines you should have heard Rex Ryan this morning which might not be a bad candidate for our next head coach he might just be the lucky charm we do need his dad was on the sideline when we won our last super bowl 🤷🏻
Going into the season, I was anticipating a run first, play action second, throw third offense. The times they've had success this is what they've been doing. This OC is like the last one, he's trying to be "too cute", 6 games in, and refuses to adapt. Awful.

Why don't reporters ask Tyrique about the finger pokes? Is he running for president? Don't be afraid to ask real questions.
2:46 "We all know how I would have handled this situation" lolololol Stevenson would have a broke jaw. Who is the Olin on the current team? If the coaches aren't going to handle Stevenson's actions that are hurting the team they need to go.
Ok. Time to move on and get ready for Arizona, then the Pats. We need to win both games before the meat gringer schedule comes. Fix the issues now and bear down!
How do you explain the sideline protection call just before halftime to prevent the Hail Mary but not when the game is on the line? Then on the hail Mary play at the end of the game, they have a fourth pass rusher drop back as a spy? Are you kidding me? I disagree with all this talk how the Bears didn’t earn or deserve to win the game. That’s nonsense. The Bears defense did a great job on Daniels all game long. The Bears had the opportunity to take control of the game, but made a boneheaded play call handing the ball to a lineman!?? Once again, this is coaching. Are you kidding me?
Waldron is getting way too cute with his calls. The double reverse came again and was a disaster. The hand off to a guy who has taken a hand-off probably once in practice, the stupid Caleb Williams QB keeper play. Absolute idiocy.
It’s insane how Bears fans and media will not mention how bad Caleb was? Another game with 100 passing lol? 10/24 41% completion and 131 yards? Jayden Daniels looked miles ahead of him
Didn’t play well for 3 quarters. Played really well in the 4th and to give you the lead on the last two drives. Jayden played o.k. At best. There was nothing special at all he did yesterday. Very average performance. If everyone wants to crown him for completing a fluke pass at the end with virtually zero pressure (forget the holding) then that’s fine. It was a defensive game through and through. Both teams gave each other a ton of chances to run away with it.
@@dabearslive9605 dude what? Daniel’s had a td called back cause Zach Ertz dropped it. Also had another td called back cause ineligible linemen downfield not to mention he had hurt ribs. I’m a Bears fan but objectively Daniels is way better. Bears were lucky to even be in that game
Ok,so when the Oline does well,CW gets the credit.....when he plays poorly its the line.....Daniels was under pressure,but delivered......so every game we will hear the same garbage,if only the line played better or we need better lineman.....heard the same balcony when Fields was the savior,but ok it's only a game
Not sure why they just allowed Daniels to just stand back there for an hour with no pass rush in that final play. Rush with 3 defensive lineman and a quick corner that can get to the QB and pursue if he escapes the pocket. I absolutely hate prevent defense and you put 4 tired fat guys up there to rush one of the fastest QBs in the league. Just a bad defensive mentality.
Tyrique Stevenson played football long enough to know better than to act a fool in such a moment, as a pro footballer. His foolery was unacceptable at any level of the sport, but especially at the NFL.
Was he really that bad??? Or is it the lack of not knowing what and how the plays break down. Ask an around, and review the game tape. His decisions prevented them from losing by a lot more. He can't block for himself or the running backs. He can't fight to get open to recieve a pass. That's on the recievers. They have to better against better competition. No excuses.
Fleus is a good DC, but he is just a moron anytime he has to talk. He says the wrong things and things that don’t make sense and you can tell how nervous he is all the time. So many penalties, Venus making the team and not taking the trade, zero knowledge about offense. Would love to keep him as DC and replace him as HC
