REACTION: Bears lose to Lions as Matt Eberflus botches end-of-game scenario | 2024 Bears postgame

[@jaromari80]

Lions fan here , you guys got you a stud at QB with the right coaching he will most definitely be elite

[@steverogers2603]

Thanks and happy Thanksgiving courtesy of the CareBears.

[@jrafel1707]

98% of Bears fans were screaming "Take a time out!" at their TV's. The other 2 % were in other rooms getting a second slice of pie or Matt Eberflus.

[@samwalters9406]

Yep

[@willsimon4042]

Flus is saving time outs for his holiday bonus

[@tonybrito9366]

I don't understand why the ownership is sitting back watching the fans who pay hard earned money to watch this incapable coach just sit back and blow every single chance to win a game and he is insane which as I recall means doing the same thing and expecting a different results !!! Accountability goes where cause if this is the h.i.t.s. system that he supposedly runs . 3 years of the same garbage and he has no clue what he is doing ?

[@jeffreydrochak5753]

Bonus? He's getting enrolled into The Jelly Of The Month Club. 😂

[@clintonfeldkamp8441]

Flus needs to be fired this is the worst most undisciplined team and staff I’ve ever seen

[@21stcenturyhiphop]

Eberflus is a GENIUS at losing games. I mean he's like a bizarro version of Don Shula or Vince Lombardi.

[@KatePosner]

The Same Old Lions tried popping up, Eberflus said ‘not today; hold my beer.’

[@steverogers2603]

This comment is so true.

[@haroldsimpson8422]

Facts. 🤣😂😆😁

[@thatoneguy3284]

Man, Flus isnt just ruining his chance to be the Bears coach, hes ruining his chance to coach AT ALL in the NFL!

[@kenherrera2819]

My wife doesn't know didly about footbal and was saying "Why don't they call time out????" My only reply :"Because the coach is an idiot!" If the Bears get a game-tying field goal there they have ALL the momentum and might have very well won that game! Instead Eberflus gives another game away because he doesn't understand the basics of coaching.

[@jage187]

Bears suck, people going to the games is what keeps the money machine run, what a gold mine😂

[@Hidden_Bird]

I'm a Lions fan, and.... I really don't know how we won. And.. I do not care! 🤣 I couldn't believe what I was watching as it was a pretty bad game honestly all the way around. But then we won because somehow the coach fell asleep and Caleb seemed completely oblivious to the clock, which would be outrageous for a college QB much less a PROFESSIONAL. I'd blame the coach more but.... I mean... I do not actually understand how he isn't fired but hey.... the old Lions curse is dead and.... its gone to the Bears... 🙃🤣

[@marks.3934]

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. At this the Bears are the best! Eberlose continues his innovative coaching. He wears down the Lions offense by not letting them off the field in the first half. Which allows a faux comeback, but we know better. Eberlose wants to keep his streak alive, now at 6. He allows this by letting the clock run out to lose rather than getting another FG blocked to lose. The man never stops thinking. Congrats coach!

[@cimerians]

Even my wife who knows no football at all was saying why don't they call a timeout. It's an insult if he coaches one more game and a disrespect to all former players and coaches of this franchise.

[@willsimon4042]

This season is one for the record books.

[@gregweindorf]

nah...just another typical season from the worst owners and franchise in all of pro sports

[@unklesalty3732]

As a Lions fan I’ve seen my share of “WTF are they doing?” moments (taking the wind instead of the ball in OT comes to mind) but this … I was sitting there thinking WHY AREN’T THEY CALLING TIMEOUT? I’ll never root for the Bears but they didn’t deserve that.

[@johninphx9360]

Being a Besrs fan feels like some kind of cosmic punishment.

[@YINKA94]

If I were the GM, I would go down to the locker room right now and say, "Hey, you're not getting on the plane with us. You're fired right now. I don't care how you get back to Chicago, but it won't be with us."

[@nickdarr7328]

As a lions fan I really hate but also like the good chance of Ben Johnson as bears head coach. I'd rather the bears were in the AFC South getting Johnson but the bears are a perfect organization and good team with even more potential. I had no idea Caleb Williams was that good and he's only gotten better as the season goes on. But most importantly the better the opponent and the worse the game is going the better he plays. That's mahomes and burrows level mental toughness

[@mile7276]

Let me guess what Eberflus will say: "well we didn't want to try to kick it because it could be blocked" .... (Said in the tone of "we didn't want to run another play and risk a fumble")

[@jaysteve4442]

Your coach is terrible. He should be fired today. Caleb should’ve had more awareness too.

[@cheesycarrotsoup]

The minute they land in Chicago he is gone.

[@TATNThisAintThatNetwork]

Kmet needs awareness too. Nobody ever mentions his over paid arse making rookie mistakes weekly

[@reddeadjuju]

@TATNThisAintThatNetwork kmet ain't the one with the ball 100% of the time and taking ridiculous sacks and very unaware. Athletic yes. Smart QB no.

[@dabearslive9605]

@@reddeadjujuthe reason your even in the game is #18. Yeah, he’s a rookie taking bad sacks sometimes. Maybe if a backup tackle doesn’t get beat the second the ball is snapped. Of course he should put his cape on and morph through him and make the throw regardless I get that.. but it isnt always gonna happen with a rookie.

[@JohnSmith-tk7nt]

The problem with williams is not his skills. It's that he has extremely low overall intelligence

[@robthames5065]

Can we also please stop going for 2 unnecessarily?

[@MrZahir5387]

Eberflus coach of the year. Give him a bonus and extend his contract 🤡🤡🤡

[@JohnSmith-tk7nt]

I mean, if the job is to be the coach of the Bears he seems to be fitting in perfectly 😅

[@richmargin6082]

Every week i have post this: wait until next week when eberflus finds another way to lose a winnable game. 49ers have an easy win coming up. And why isn’t anyone calling out Ryan Poles?

[@cheesycarrotsoup]

If the Bears don't fire the coach the second they land in Chicago I'm switching teams sorry I'm done with the mediocrity. Leave Chicago this is embarrassing

[@almightyironhead25]

Your not changing teams... grow up.... take your L and deal with it .....

[@chrisvelez2749]

My 70 year old mother was screaming time out. The bears should hire her.

[@PEN-N-PAL]

*The missed throw by Caleb Williams to DJ Moore's feet was the pass that created this drama, if CW makes that simple throw they're at least in makeable field goal range to tie the game or make the plays that win the game.* -NFL-SCOUT

[@49ersfoldem]

I refuse to go to bed until he’s fire. I’m going on a sleep deprived strike

[@randywallace5864]

My question is why didn't the fire him after the first season? His comment if I remember right was he was instilling championship characteristics and he was never a champion.

[@jessiemeredith9088]

The Caleb hyperbole has got to stop. You can't ignore his play in the 1st half. He had success once the Lions D was depleted by injuries. Yet another game we failed to score more than 20 points. You won't many games scoring 20 points or less.

[@robertojones5430]

The chiefs does

[@youngmindelevation1176]

I just hope that it is a competent coach out there who see what caleb and the Bears capable of and take the job

[@TaliaRandolph-w5b]

Eberflus was playing for a higher draft choice. Packers fan here: you Bears fans got yourself a QB.

[@jasonbear4395]

"You play to lose the game....hello!?!? You play to lose the game!" - Flus Edwards

[@biggsjones2486]

Eberflus was standing right by an official. Call a timeout after the sack, or at 20 seconds when you saw Williams using to much time. That was inexcusable and all on the head coach.

[@RUTLANDSTUDIOS]

Flus defended his decision. Like wtf!!!!

[@AMBNumbr1StunaYT]

Somehow everybody else knows what to do except bears players but that somehow coaches fault lol.

[@dustint2482]

Well, the shortened suite is they weren't trying to tie the game. They were either going to win it or lose it. That being said they could've taken a time out they could've converted the fourth down and they could've had three more shots to win the game or lose the game. Fire Eberflus his clock management is abysmal

[@quinn-tessential3232]

Now do you understand why Eberflus was willing to "settle" for a long field goal attempt at the end of the Packers game? No matter which direction he goes, the team finds a way to come up short. The irony is that the Bears were a 10-point dog and performed admirably by making this a game, and yet we're back to "Eberflus is a bum, get rid of him!" as the entire story. That's lazy and dumb. Good teams don't find themselves consistently behind coming down the stretch, having to mount a last-minute drive with a rookie QB and an unreliable offensive line that tends to give up sacks and pressures at inopportune times. This team is short on TALENT and that's why they keep losing. By the way, last time I checked, NFL rules allow the QB to call a time-out. A "franchise quarterback" needs to take control.

[@dominoep]

Everyone should boycott Bears home games until he's fired.

[@mikeporten8174]

Fire Poles

[@atanbarakatan338]

Fire Poles if he don't fire EFERBUST

[@Steve-hi1db]

The lions didn’t even look impressive, the last three times we played them. It’s been a close one.

[@Selfpreservationformystarseeds]

A good tough game with bone head decisions. It's a learning experience. Go bears 🐻. Losing can be contagious. Keep the Hope alive guys 🙏

[@briancorrigan9372]

If they were thinking field goal at the end, that's a problem right there. The thinking should have been solely directed to getting a game winning touchdown. There is no killer mentality on this coaching staff. Starting with the head coach…

[@jameshartkopf2843]

The Bears are becoming the new Cowboys.

[@chrisw.6060]

Flus out here treating time outs like they are PTO carry over at a regular office job.

[@joeanderson444]

WHat we should be asking is, "how did the Bears not get blown out in this game?" Considering the first half, did the Lions pull the foot off the gas or were they playing conservative to keep the lead???

[@ladyc3205]

I hear the Bears have. 26 coaches. Is this true? would like to be a coach with the Chicago Bears. How do I apply?

[@GoneFullTilt]

Ford Field is bowel shaking LOUD. Its easy to get thrown off and distracted.

[@michaelsurvilla8966]

ITS ALMOST LIKE EBERFLUS KNEW HE WAS GETTING FIRED, SO HE SAID I'LL SCREW YOU GUYS BEFORE I LEAVE

[@sy12]

No doubt a timeout should’ve been called after the sack but Caleb took way too long to snap the ball after they decided not to call it. Everybody was at the line with 15 seconds left. There was confusion by two receivers up top about who needed to be on the line of scrimmage. And how does Kmet make the same stupid mistake of offensive pi? Just terrible all around.

[@7hmichael]

And Poles is culpable for not firing his friend last year. He better fire him now.

[@trentboyett6048]

Eberlose does have an end of the game process , when he gets to the end of the game he blacks out.

[@tonya4029]

It just goes to show you that George shouldn't be making any personnel decisions.

[@heart_and_sole]

Coach is sly smart...tanking for that # 1 pick.

[@BiggaChill]

Rome shouldn’t have given up on that route…. That was a TD throw….. it was the throw…. All he had to do was finish the route and track the ball…. Would’ve been epic….

[@aaronbrunette5461]

"Eberflosing"

[@donnyjandeska1318]

Correction sir, it's Everlosing!

[@mikeporten8174]

This coach sucks.

[@Robsay01]

Very sad but we’ve got the golden egg guys! Calab is it. We see it more every week. Calab is all the matters this year.

[@titusprime5240]

Why would anyone be embarrassed over a SPORT! Get a grip.

[@tigg2666]

Idc how good he is Stevenson has to go. Doesn’t matter we got a penalty for us what is he doing chirping on the sideline while we are down 10. One brain dead moment from him has ruined our season

[@angusnegrin]

We need Bellichick or Vrabel

[@heinzbucksandcastle2053]

What in the name of football was that? Coach does not know how to call a time out?

[@redyullayulla1055]

WILLIAMS should be cut for taking sack & NOT taking TO, with clock running out

[@amorizz5579]

Rewatch the play. It was a bad sack, but the dude had about two seconds (if that). Even still, after the sack, it's an obvious timeout. Caleb is a decent to good QB. If he was cut (which is never going to happen), he would immediately get picked up by another team. Even Daniel Jones is still on a roster. I can only hope you are trolling by saying cut Caleb.

[@RandalSandal825]

The Bears beat the Bears today

[@damikeshow2323]

We mad but hood Bosses don’t care so why we tripping 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂????

[@7hmichael]

He's a bad coach.. nice guy. Bad coach. He Should have been fired last year. He blew games last year. Fire him Monday. Debacle after Debacle this year.

[@gabrielortiz1648]

Liver shot 🤕🤕🤕

[@almightyironhead25]

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOO LIIIIIIOOOOOONSSSSSS

[@glixin1796]

Drug testing will fix a lot of problems with the Bears.

[@umpalumpia723]

Coach had no situational awareness and the players were not disciplined

[@trentboyett6048]

Bears with a generational snatching of defeat from the jaws of victory. Wow thanks for generational bad coaching. Generational !

[@antcer608]

I love it

[@garrybomkamp]

God I feel sorry for eberflus wife what a embarrassment

[@Vi101Jay]

Feels like tanking...

[@Ysoserious1]

Caleb is getting a pass because he connects on a few good throws, but at least half the sacks he takes is on him, and he holds the ball too long

[@JohnSmith-tk7nt]

Well the Bears arent doing anything anytime soon. He has a couple years to figure it out. At least he's capable of making the throws

[@smilinbandit9858]

He’s a rookie who has 4 late game drives to put them in position to win, and every time the coach does something to lose. If you watch this season and blame Caleb you don’t know anything about football. I don’t think Fields had a single late game drive in 3 seasons and the whole fan base loved him.

[@JohnSmith-tk7nt]

@smilinbandit9858 Dont be naive, caleb put his stamp on blowing that last drive too. He looked like he has a high schoolers football IQ on those last couple plays

[@sy12]

Yeah he definitely takes bad sacks. But he’s a rookie so he deserves a little pass there. That sack he took in overtime last week was one of the worst I’ve seen.

[@kimnovak2546]

Eberloss has got to go

[@antcer608]

Goff > Caleb

[@EdmundAspelund-vv9xs]

Chicago chargers this sucks

[@nickdarr7328]

With such a crazy game the most shocking moment was a black dude with dreads named shaboozy being a country singer. You really really can't judge a book by its cover but goddamn I sure didn't see it coming

[@PukeyMcDork]

Caleb looked OK in the game period until clutch time happened. Then, he did his Jonny football imitation and we lost the goddamn game.

[@Gateseleven]

breathe , pff

[@ikecot3]

He has single handily blown 6 games in the last two seasons

[@epmunar]

Bears will Bear. lol
